1 Chronicles 12
1 David went to Ziklag [town] to escape from [King] Saul. While he was there, many warriors came and joined him, and they helped him when he fought battles.
Agora são aqueles que vieram a David para Ziklag enquanto ele era um fugitivo de Saul, o filho de Kish. Eles estavam entre os homens poderosos, seus ajudantes na guerra.
2 They carried bows [and arrows]. They were able to shoot arrows and to sling stones. They could use either their right arms or their left arms to do that. They were relatives of Saul from the tribe of Benjamin.
They estavam armados com arcos, e podiam usar tanto a mão direita quanto a esquerda em pedras de funda e em atirar flechas do arco. Eles eram parentes de Saul, da tribo de Benjamin.
3 Their leader was Ahiezer. Next in command was Joash. They were both sons of Shemaah from Gibeah [city]. [These are the names of some of those warriors: ] Jeziel and Pelet, the sons of Azmaveth; Beracah; Jehu from Anathoth [town];

8 Some men from the tribe of Gad [east of the Jordan River] joined David when he was at his fortress in [the caves in] the desert. They were brave warriors who were trained for fighting battles and able to use shields and spears well. They [SYN] were as fierce as [SIM, MTY] lions, and they could run as fast as [HYP, SIM] deer/gazelles on the hills/mountains.
Alguns gaditas se juntaram a Davi na fortaleza no deserto, homens valentes, homens treinados para a guerra, que sabiam manejar escudo e lança; cujos rostos eram como os rostos dos leões, e eram tão rápidos quanto as gazelas nas montanhas:
9 Ezer was their leader. Next in command was Obadiah. Next was Eliab.
Ezer o chefe, Obadiah o segundo, Eliab o terceiro,
10 Next was Mishmannah. Next was Jeremiah.
Mishmannah o quarto, Jeremias o quinto,
11 Next was Attai. Next was Eliel.
Attai o sexto, Eliel o sétimo,
12 Next was Johanan. Next was Elzabad.
Johanan o oitavo, Elzabad o nono,
13 Next was [another man whose name was] Jeremiah. The last was Macbannai.
Jeremiah o décimo, e Machbannai o décimo primeiro.
14 Those men from the tribe of Gad were all army officers. Some of them commanded 1,000 soldiers, and some of them commanded 100 soldiers.
These dos filhos de Gad eram capitães do exército. Aquele que era menor era igual a cem, e o maior a mil.
15 They crossed [to the west side of] the Jordan [River] during March, [at the time of the year] when the river was flooded. They chased from there all the people who lived in the valleys on both sides of the river.
Estes são aqueles que atravessaram o Jordão no primeiro mês, quando este transbordou todas as suas margens; e puseram em fuga todos os que viviam nos vales, tanto para o leste como para o oeste.
16 Some other men from the tribe of Benjamin and from Judah also came to David in his fortress.
Algumas das crianças de Benjamin e Judah vieram para a fortaleza de David.
17 David went out [of the cave] to meet them and said to them, “If you have come peacefully to help me, I am eager to have you join with me. But if you have come to enable my enemies to capture me, even though I [SYN] have not done anything to harm you, I hope/wish that the God whom our ancestors (worshiped/belonged to) will see it and condemn/punish you.”
David saiu ao encontro deles e lhes respondeu: “Se vocês vieram pacificamente a mim para me ajudar, meu coração estará unido a vocês; mas se vocês vieram para me trair aos meus adversários, já que não há nenhum mal em minhas mãos, que o Deus de nossos pais veja isso e o repreenda”.
18 Then [God’s] Spirit came upon Amasai, who was another leader of the thirty [greatest warriors], and he said, “David, we want to be with you; you who are the son of Jesse, we will join you. We know that things will go very well [DOU] for you and for those who are with you, because your God is helping you.”
Então veio o Espírito sobre Amasai, que era o chefe dos trinta, e disse: “Somos teus, David, e ao teu lado, filho de Jessé”. Paz, paz seja contigo, e paz seja com teus ajudantes; pois teu Deus te ajuda”. Então David os recebeu e os fez capitães da banda.
19 So David welcomed those men, and he appointed them to be leaders of his soldiers. Some men from the tribe of Manasseh also joined David when he went with the soldiers of Philistia to fight against Saul’s [army]. But David and his men did not really help the army of Philistia. After the leaders of Philistia talked [about David and his soldiers], they sent David away. They said, “If David joins his master Saul again, we will all be killed {his army will kill all of us}!”
Some de Manasseh também se juntou a Davi quando ele veio com os filisteus contra Saul para lutar, mas eles não os ajudaram, pois os senhores dos filisteus o mandaram embora após consulta, dizendo: “Ele desertará para seu amo Saul para o perigo de nossas cabeças”.
20 When David went to Ziklag, these were the men from the tribe of Manasseh who went with him: Adnah, Jozabad, Jediael, Michael, [another man whose name was] Jozabad, Elihu, and Zillethai. Each of them had been a commander of 1,000 men [in Saul’s army].
Quando ele foi para Ziklag, alguns de Manasseh se juntaram a ele: Adnah, Jozabad, Jediael, Michael, Jozabad, Elihu, e Zillethai, capitães de milhares que eram de Manasseh.
21 They were all brave soldiers, and they helped David to fight against the groups of men who roamed throughout the country, robbing people. So those men became commanders in David’s army.
Eles ajudaram David contra o bando de raiders, pois eram todos homens poderosos e de valor e eram capitães do exército.
22 Every day more men joined David’s men, and his army became large, like [SIM] the army of God (OR, a very huge army).
Pois de dia para dia os homens vinham a David para ajudá-lo, até que houvesse um grande exército, como o exército de Deus.
23 These are the numbers of soldiers who were ready for battle who joined David at Hebron [city]. They came to help him to become the king of Israel to replace Saul, as Yahweh had promised would happen.
These são os números dos chefes dos que estavam armados para a guerra, que vieram a David para Hebron para entregar o reino de Saul a ele, segundo a palavra de Javé.
24 There were 6,800 men from Judah, who carried shields and spears.

26 There were 4,600 men from the tribe of Levi.

28 Zadok, a strong young soldier, was also in that group, and there were 22 other leaders from his clan who came with him.
e Zadok, um jovem poderoso de valor, e da casa de seu pai vinte e dois capitães.
29 There were 3,000 men from the tribe of Benjamin who were Saul’s relatives. Most of them had previously wanted one of Saul’s descendants to be the king.
Dos filhos de Benjamim, parentes de Saul: três mil, pois até então, a maior parte deles havia mantido sua lealdade à casa de Saul.
30 There were 20,800 men from the tribe of Ephraim who were all brave warriors and trained for fighting battles and famous in their own clans.

31 There were 18,000 men from the half of the tribe of Manasseh [that lived west of the Jordan River]. They were all chosen to go and help David become the king.
Da meia tribo de Manassés: dezoito mil, que foram mencionados pelo nome, para vir e fazer Davi rei.
32 There were 200 men who were leaders from the tribe of Issachar, along with their relatives. Those leaders always knew what the Israelis should do, and they knew the right time to do it.
Dos filhos de Issachar, homens que tinham compreensão dos tempos, para saber o que Israel deveria fazer, suas cabeças eram duzentos; e todos os seus irmãos estavam sob seu comando.
33 There were 55,000 men from the tribe of Zebulun. They were all experienced warriors and knew how to use all kinds of weapons well. They were completely loyal to David.
De Zebulom, que podiam sair no exército, que podiam organizar a batalha com todos os tipos de instrumentos de guerra: cinqüenta mil que podiam comandar e não eram de coração duplo.

37 There were also 120,000 soldiers from the area east of the Jordan [River who joined David]. They were from the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and the eastern half of the tribe of Manasseh. They had all kinds of weapons.
Do outro lado do Jordão, dos rubenitas, dos gaditas e da meia tribo de Manassés, com todo tipo de instrumentos de guerra para a batalha: cento e vinte mil.
38 All those men were soldiers who volunteered to be in David’s army. They came to Hebron wanting very much to enable David to be the king of all of the Israeli people.
Todos estes eram homens de guerra que podiam ordenar a batalha, e vieram com um coração perfeito a Hebron para fazer Davi rei sobre todo Israel; e todo o resto de Israel também tinha um só coração para fazer Davi rei.
39 The men spent three days there with David, eating and drinking, because their families had given them food to take with them.
Eles estiveram lá com Davi três dias, comendo e bebendo; pois seus irmãos haviam fornecido provisões para eles.
40 Also, their fellow Israelis came from as far away as the area where the tribes of Issachar, Zebulun, and Naphtali lived, bringing food on donkeys, camels, mules, and oxen. They brought a lot of flour, fig cakes, raisins, wine, [olive] oil, cattle and sheep. And throughout Israel, the people were very joyful.
Além disso, aqueles que estavam perto deles, até Issachar, Zebulun e Naftali, traziam pão sobre burros, camelos, mulas e bois: suprimento de farinha, bolos de figos, cachos de passas, vinho, azeite, gado e ovelhas em abundância; pois havia alegria em Israel.
