又有便雅憫和猶大人到山寨大衛那裏。
17 David went out to meet them and addressed them: “If you have come in peace to me to help me, you may join me. But if you have come to betray me to my adversaries, may the God of our ancestors see and rebuke you, since I have done no wrong.”
大衛出去迎接他們，對他們說：「你們若是和和平平地來幫助我，我心就與你們相契；你們若是將我這無罪的人賣在敵人手裏，願我們列祖的上帝察看責罰。」
18 Then the Spirit came on Amasai, who was chief of the thirty. Amasai said, “We are yours, David. We are on your side, son of Jesse. Peace, may peace be to whoever helps you. May peace be to your helpers, for your God is helping you.” Then David received them and made them commanders over his men.
那時上帝的靈感動那三十個勇士的首領亞瑪撒，他就說： 大衛啊，我們是歸於你的！ 耶西的兒子啊，我們是幫助你的！ 願你平平安安， 願幫助你的也都平安！ 因為你的上帝幫助你。 大衛就收留他們，立他們作軍長。
19 Some from Manasseh also deserted to David when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle. Yet they did not help the Philistines, because the Philistine lords consulted with each other and sent David away. They said, “He will desert to his master Saul at the risk of our lives.”
大衛從前與非利士人同去，要與掃羅爭戰，有些瑪拿西人來投奔大衛，他們卻沒有幫助非利士人；因為非利士人的首領商議，打發他們回去，說：「恐怕大衛拿我們的首級，歸降他的主人掃羅。」
20 When he went to Ziklag, the men of Manasseh who joined him were Adnah, Jozabad, Jediael, Michael, Jozabad, Elihu, and Zillethai, captains over thousands of Manasseh.

22 Day after day, men came to David to help him, until there was a great army, like the army of God.
那時天天有人來幫助大衛，以致成了大軍，如上帝的軍一樣。
