2 They were armed with bows, and could use both the right hand and the left in slinging stones and in shooting arrows from the bow: they were of Saul's brothers of Benjamin.

8 Of the Gadites there separated themselves to David to the stronghold in the wilderness, mighty men of valor, men trained for war, that could handle shield and spear; whose faces were like the faces of lions, and they were as swift as the roes on the mountains;
Se separaron también algunos hombres valientes de los gaditas, para (unirse) con David en la fortaleza del desierto, soldados aptos para la guerra, que manejaban escudo y lanza. Sus rostros eran como rostros de leones, y eran ligeros como las gacelas de los montes.

16 There came of the people of Benjamin and Judah to the stronghold to David.
Asimismo algunos de los hijos de Benjamín y de Judá vinieron a la fortaleza, donde estaba David.
17 David went out to meet them, and answered them, "If you have come peaceably to me to help me, my heart shall be knit to you; but if you have come to betray me to my adversaries, since there is no wrong in my hands, may the God of our fathers look thereon, and rebuke it."
David se presentó delante de ellos, y tomando la palabra, les dijo: “Si venís a mí con intenciones pacíficas para ayudarme, mi corazón se unirá con vosotros; pero si es para engañarme y entregarme a mis enemigos, siendo mis manos limpias de maldad, ¡véalo el Dios de nuestros padres, y sea juez!”
18 Then the Spirit came on Amasai, who was chief of the Thirty, and he said, "We are yours, David, and on your side, you son of Jesse: peace, peace be to you, and peace be to your helpers; for your God helps you." Then David received them, and made them captains of the band.
Entonces el Espíritu revistió a Amasai, jefe de los treinta (y dijo): “¡Tuyos somos, oh David; y contigo estamos, hijo de Isaí! ¡Paz, paz a ti, y paz a cuantos te ayuden! Pues a ti te ayuda tu Dios.” Y David los recibió, y los puso entre los jefes del ejército.
19 Of Manasseh also there fell away some to David, when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle; but they did not help them; for the lords of the Philistines sent him away after consultation, saying, "He will fall away to his master Saul to the jeopardy of our heads."
También de Manasés se unieron algunos con David, cuando este juntamente con los filisteos hizo guerra contra Saúl, bien que no ayudó a estos; pues los príncipes de los filisteos, habido consejo, lo despidieron, diciendo: “Se pasará a Saúl, su señor, y arriesgaremos nuestras cabezas.”
20 As he went to Ziklag, there fell to him of Manasseh, Adnah, and Jozabad, and Jediael, and Michael, and Jozabad, and Elihu, and Zillethai, captains of thousands who were of Manasseh.
Así cuando regresó a Siceleg, algunos de los hijos de Manasés se pasaron a él: Adná, Jozabad, Jediael, Micael, Jozabad, Eliú y Silletai, jefes militares de Manasés.
21 They helped David against the band of rovers: for they were all mighty men of valor, and were captains in the army.
Estos ayudaron a David contra las bandas, porque todos eran hombres valientes y vinieron a ser jefes del ejército.
22 For from day to day men came to David to help him, until there was a great army, like the army of God.
