1 Chronicles 12
1 Now these, are they who came unto David, to Ziklag, he yet being shut up, because of Saul son of Kish, —and, they, were among the heroes, helpers in the war;
Bere a Dawid guan fii Kis babarima Saulo anim kohintaw wɔ Siklag no, saa mmarima yi kɔdɔm no. Na wɔka dɔmmarima a wɔboa Dawid wɔ akodi mu no ho.
2 armed with the bow, using right hand or left with stones, and with arrows in the bow, —of the brethren of Saul, out of Benjamin:
Na wɔn nyinaa yɛ agyantowfo antoamfomfo. Na wotumi de wɔn nsa benkum ne nifa nyinaa tow agyan ne ahwimmo. Na wɔn nyinaa yɛ Saulo abusuafo a wofi Benyamin abusuakuw mu.
3 the chief, Ahiezer, and Joash, sons of Shemaah the Gibeathite, and Jeziel and Pelet, sons of Azmaveth, —and Beracah, and Jehu the Anathothite;
Na nea otua wɔn ano yɛ Semaia a ofi Gibea no babarima Ahieser. Na ne nuabarima ne Yoas a ɔyɛ nʼabediakyiri. Eyinom ne dɔmmarima no nkae: Asmawet mmabarima Yesiel ne Pelet; Beraka ne Yehu a wofi Anatot;
4 and Ishmaiah, the Gibeonite, a hero among the thirty, and over the thirty, —and Jeremiah and Jahaziel, and Johanan, and Jozabad, the Gederathite;
Ismaia a ofi Gibeon, ɔkofo kɛse ne ntuanoni wɔ Aduasa no mu; Yeremia, Yahasiel, Yohanan ne Yosabad a wofi Gedera;
5 Eluzai and Jerimoth and Bealiah and Shemariah, and Shephatiah, the Haruphite;
Elusai, Yerimot, Bealia, Semaria, ne Sefatia a ofi Harif;
6 Elkanah and Isshiah, and Azarel, and Joezer and Jashobeam, the Korahites;
Elkana, Yesia, Asarel, Yoeser, Yasobeam a wɔyɛ Korafo;
7 and Joelah and Zebadiah, sons of Jeroham, of Gedor.
Yoela, Sebadia, Yeroham mmabarima a wofi Gedor.
8 And, of the Gadites, there separated themselves unto David, to the stronghold towards the desert, heroes of valour, men of war, for battle, men that could handle shield and spear, —and, faces of lions, were their faces, and, like gazelles upon the mountains, were they, for swiftness:
Gadfo akofo akokodurufo bi a wɔakwadaw akodi mu guan kɔɔ Dawid afa bere a na ɔwɔ aguaabɔ mu wɔ sare so no. Na wɔyɛ nimdefo wɔ nkatabo ne peaw akodi mu a wɔn ho yɛ hu sɛ gyata, na wɔn ho yɛ hare te sɛ mmepɔw so atwe.
9 Ezer, the chief, Obadiah, the second, —Eliab, the third;
Eser na na otua wɔn ano. Obadia yɛ abediakyiri. Eliab na ɔto so abiɛsa.
10 Mashmannah, the fourth, Jeremiah, the fifth;
Nea ɔto so anan ne Mismana. Nea ɔto so anum ne Yeremia.
11 Attai, the sixth, Eliel the seventh;
Atai to so asia, Eliel to so ason.
12 Johanan, the eighth, Elzabad, the ninth;
Yohanan to so awotwe, Elsabad to so akron.
13 Jeremiah, the tenth, Machbannai, the eleventh.
Yeremia to so du, Makbanai to so dubaako.
14 These, were of the sons of Gad, chiefs of the host, —one to a hundred, the least, and, the greatest, to a thousand.
Saa dɔmmarima a wofi Gad yi yɛ asahene. Nea ɔnyɛ den koraa no, otumi ne asraafo ɔha ko, na nea ɔyɛ den no tumi ne asraafo apem ko.
15 These, are they who passed over the Jordan, in the first month, when, it, was full, over all its banks, —and they put to flight all them of the vales, to the east and to the west.
Afe no mfiase a Asubɔnten Yordan ayiri no, wotwa kɔpam nnipa a wɔtete tataw so wɔ nʼapuei ne nʼatɔe konkɔn so nyinaa fii hɔ.
16 And there came, of the sons of Benjamin, and Judah, as far as the stronghold, unto David.
Afoforo a wofi Benyamin ne Yuda no baa Dawid nkyɛn wɔ hintabea hɔ.
17 And David went forth to meet them, and responded, and said to them, If, peaceably, ye are come unto me, to help me, I shall have towards you, a heart for unity, —but, if to betray me to mine adversaries, there being no violence in my hands, may the God of our fathers see and rebuke!
Dawid kohyiaa wɔn kae se, “Sɛ moaba asomdwoe so sɛ morebɛboa me a, yɛyɛ nnamfo. Na sɛ moaba sɛ morebeyi me ama mʼatamfo wɔ bere a menyɛɛ bɔne bi a, yɛn agyanom Nyankopɔn nhwɛ mmu mo atɛn.”
18 Then, the spirit, clothed Amasai, chief of the thirty, Thine, O David, Yea, with, thee, O son of Jesse! Prosperity, prosperity to thee, And prosperity to thy helpers, For thy God, hath helped thee: So David accepted them, and set them among the chiefs of the band.
Na honhom no sii Amasai a akyiri no ɔbɛyɛɛ Aduasa no so panyin no so, na ɔkae se, “Yɛyɛ wo dea, Dawid! Yɛwɔ wʼafa, Yisai ba; Asomdwoe ne nkɔso nyɛ wo kyɛfa na wʼaboafo nyinaa nya nkɔso, efisɛ wo Nyankopɔn ne nea ɔboa wo.” Enti Dawid ma wɔbɛkaa ne ho, na ɔyɛɛ wɔn mpanyimfo wɔ nʼakofo mu.
19 And, of Manasseh, there fell away unto David, when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle, but they helped them not, —for the lords of the Philistines advisedly sent him away, saying, At the price of our heads, he might fall away to his master, Saul.
Manase mmarima no bi tew wɔn ho kɔdɔm Dawid, bere a na ɔne Filistifo no rekɔko atia Saulo no. Nanso asɛm no ani dan a Filistifo ntuanofo ampene so sɛ Dawid ne ne mmarima no bɛka wɔn ho akɔ. Wodwinnwen ho ara no, wɔma wɔsan wɔn akyi kae se, “Sɛ Dawid dan nʼani kɔ Saulo afa de tia yɛn a, yɛn nkwa na yɛde betwa so.”
20 When he went into Ziklag, there fell away unto him, of Manasseh, Adnah and Jozabad, and Jediael and Michael and Jozabad, and Elihu and Zillethai, —chiefs of the thousands that pertained to Manasseh;
Manase mmarima a wɔtew wɔn ho kɔɔ Dawid afa, bere a na ɔresan akɔ Siklag no ne Adna, Yosabad, Yediael, Mikael, Yosabad, Elihu ne Siletai. Na wɔn mu biara da asraafo apem ano.
21 and, they, helped with David, against the [marauding] band, for, heroes of valour, were they all, —and they became captains in the host;
Wɔboaa Dawid ma ɔtaa afowfo no, efisɛ na wɔyɛ akokodurufo ne akofo akɛse a wɔbɛyɛɛ asahene wɔ nʼakofo mu.
22 for, from day to day, there came unto David, to help him, —until it was a great camp, like a camp of God.
Adekyee biara, mmarima bebree kɔdɔm Dawid kosii sɛ onyaa asraafodɔm a ɛso te sɛ Onyankopɔn de.
23 And, these, are the numbers of the chiefs armed for war, they came unto David, to Hebron, —to turn round the kingdom of Saul unto him, according to the bidding of Yahweh:
Eyinom ne akofo akɛse dodow a wɔdɔm Dawid wɔ Hebron no. Na wɔn nyinaa pɛ sɛ Dawid si Saulo anan mu di hene, sɛnea Awurade ahyɛ ato hɔ no.
24 Sons of Judah, bearers of shield and spear, six thousand and eight hundred, armed for war.
Akofo akɛse a wofi Yuda abusuakuw mu no, na wɔn dodow yɛ mpem asia ne ahanwɔtwe a wokurakura nkatabo ne mpeaw.
25 Of sons of Simeon, heroes of valour for the war, seven thousand, and one hundred.
Akofo akɛse a wofi Simeon abusuakuw mu no, na wɔn dodow yɛ mpem ason ne ɔha.
26 Of the sons of Levi, four thousand, and six hundred.
Asraafo a na wofi Lewi abusuakuw mu no, na wɔn dodow yɛ mpem anan ne ahansia.
27 And Jehoiada, was chief ruler for Aaron, —and, with him, three thousand and seven hundred;
Na Yehoiada a otua Aaron abusua no ano no wɔ asraafo mpem abiɛsa ne ahanson a wɔhyɛ nʼase.
28 and Zadok, a young man, a hero of valour, —and the house of his father, captains twenty and two.
Saa ara nso na na Sadok, ɔbabun ɔkofo kɛse ne nʼabusuafo aduonu abien a wɔn nyinaa yɛ asraafo mpanyimfo ka ho.
29 And, of the sons of Benjamin, brethren of Saul, three thousand, —and, hitherto, the greater part of them, had been keeping the charge of the house of Saul.
Akofo akɛse a wofi Benyamin abusuakuw mu a wɔyɛ Saulo abusuafo no, na wɔn dodow yɛ mpem abiɛsa. Na Benyaminfo no mu fa kɛse no taa Saulo akyi ara.
30 And, of the sons of Ephraim, twenty thousand, and eight hundred, —heroes of valour, men of renown, to their ancestral house.
Akofo akɛse a wofi Efraim abusuakuw mu no, na wɔn dodow yɛ mpem aduonu ne ahanwɔtwe a wɔn mu biara agye din wɔ nʼabusua mu.
31 And, of the half tribe of Manasseh, eighteen thousand, who were distinguished by name, coming in to make David king.
Manase abusuakuw fa a na ɛwɔ Yordan atɔe fam no nso, wotuu mmarima mpem dunwɔtwe a wɔn botae ara ne sɛ wɔbɛboaa Dawid ma wadi hene.
32 And, of the sons of Issachar, such as were of good understanding of the times, to know what Israel, should do, their chiefs, were two hundred, and, all their brethren, were at their bidding.
Ntuanofo a wofi Isakar abusuakuw mu ne wɔn abusuafo dodow yɛ ahannu. Na saa mmarima yi nyinaa te nsɛm a ɛrekɔ so saa bere no ase, na wonim ɔkwan pa a eye ma Israel nso.
33 Of Zebulun—such as were ready to go forth in host, expert for battle with all weapons of war, fifty thousand, —and for setting in array, not of two minds!
Akofo a wɔakwadaw akodi mu a wofi Sebulon abusuakuw mu no, na wɔn dodow yɛ mpem aduonum. Na wɔakɔ amia mu ayɛ krado ama akodi, na na wɔtaa Dawid akyi pintinn.
34 And, of Naphtali, a thousand captains, —and, with them, with shield and spear, thirty-seven thousand.
Wɔn a wofi Naftali abusuakuw mu no yɛ asraafo mpanyimfo apem ne akofo akɛse mpem aduasa ason a wokurakura nkatabo ne mpeaw.
35 And, of the Danite, expert for war, twenty-eight thousand, and six hundred.
Akofo a wofi Dan abusuakuw mu no, na wɔn dodow yɛ mpem aduonu awotwe ne ahansia a wɔasiesie wɔn ho ama ɔko.
36 And, of Asher, such as were ready to go forth in host to set in array for battle, forty thousand.
Akofo akɛse a wɔatetew wɔn yiye a wofi Aser abusuakuw mu no, na wɔn dodow yɛ mpem aduanan a wɔn nyinaa ayɛ krado ama ɔko.
37 And, from over the Jordan, of the Reubenites and Gadites and half tribe of Manasseh, with all manner of weapons of war for battle, a hundred and twenty thousand.
Ruben, Gad mmusuakuw ne Manase abusuakuw fa a na wɔtete Asubɔnten Yordan apuei fam no maa asraafo mpem ɔha ne aduonu a wɔwɔ akode ahorow nyinaa.
38 All these, being men of war, expert in setting in battle-array, with a perfect heart, came to Hebron, to make David king over all Israel, —moreover also, all the rest of Israel, were of one heart to make David king.
Saa asraafo yi nyinaa kɔɔ amia mu na wɔkɔɔ Hebron a wɔn botae ara ne sɛ wɔde Dawid bɛyɛ Israelhene. Nokware, Israel nyinaa adwene kɔɔ bɛnkorɔ mu sɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ Dawid na ɔyɛ wɔn hene.
39 So they were there, with David, three days, eating and drinking, —for their brethren had made preparation for them.
Wɔne Dawid didi nomee nnansa, efisɛ na wɔn abusuafo no ayɛ ahoboa rehwɛ wɔn kwan.
40 Moreover also, they who were near of kin unto them, as far as Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, were bringing bread, on asses and on camels and on mules and on oxen, meal-food, cakes of figs and cakes of raisins, and wine, and oil, and oxen, and sheep—in abundance, —for there was joy Israel.
Nnipa bi a wofi akyiri te sɛ Isakar, Sebulon, ne Naftali de nnuan tenaa wɔn mfurum, yoma ne anantwi so bae. Wɔde asikresiam, ɔfam, ɛhyɛ, nsa, ngo, anantwi ne nguan bebree baa afahyɛ no ase. Anigye a enni kabea baa Israel asase so.
