< 1 Chronicles 12 >

1 Now these are those who came to David to Ziklag while he was a fugitive from Saul the son of Kish. They were among the mighty men, his helpers in war.
Ndị a bụ ndị ikom bịakwutere Devid na Ziklag, mgbe e si nʼihu Sọl nwa Kish chụpụ ya. (Ha so nʼime ndị ọka agha nyeere Devid aka ibu agha.
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 relatives of the tribe of Benjamin.
Ngwa agha ha bụ ụta, ha nwere ike iji aka nri maọbụ aka ekpe gbapụ àkụ maọbụ fee ebe; ndị a bụ ndị ikwu Sọl si nʼebo Benjamin.)
3 The chief was Ahiezer, then Joash, the sons of Shemaah the Gibeathite; Jeziel and Pelet, the sons of Azmaveth; Beracah; Jehu the Anathothite;
Onyeisi ha bụ Ahieza na Joash, bụ ụmụ Shema onye Gibea. Ndị ọzọ bụ, Jeziel na Pelet ụmụ Azmavet, Beraka, Jehu onye Anatot,

Juela na Zebadaya ụmụ Jeroham onye Gedoa.
8 Some Gadites joined David in the stronghold in the wilderness, mighty men of valor, men trained for war, who could handle shield and spear; whose faces were like the faces of lions, and they were as swift as the gazelles on the mountains:
Ndị a bụkwa dike nʼagha sitere nʼebo Gad gbasoo Devid nʼebe e wusiri ike ya dị nʼọzara. Ha bụkwa ndị ọka nʼiji ùbe na ọta alụ agha. Ha dịkwa gara gara dịka ele nʼelu ugwu, ihu ha dịkwa ka ihu ọdụm.

14 These of the sons of Gad were captains of the army. He who was least was equal to one hundred, and the greatest to one thousand.
Ndị a, ndị sitere nʼebo Gad bụ ndịisi agha. Onye na-adịghị ike nʼime ha dị ike dịka narị ndị agha, ma onye dị ike nʼime ha dị ike dịka puku ndị agha.
15 These are those who went over the Jordan in the first month, when it had overflowed all its banks; and they put to flight all who lived in the valleys, both toward the east and toward the west.
Ọ bụ ha gafere osimiri Jọdan nʼudu mmiri, mgbe Jọdan tofere akụkụ ya niile, chụsaa ndị niile bi na ndagwurugwu, nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ na ọdịda anyanwụ.
16 Some of the children of Benjamin and Judah came to the stronghold to David.
Ndị ọzọ sitekwara nʼebo Benjamin na Juda bịakwute Devid nʼebe ya e wusiri ike.
17 David went out to meet them, and answered them, “If you have come peaceably to me to help me, my heart will be united with 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 see this and rebuke it.”
Mgbe ahụ, Devid pụrụ ịga zute ha, sị ha, “Ọ bụrụ na unu bịara nʼudo inyere m aka, ejikeere m ịnabata unu ka unu dịnyere m. Kama ọ bụrụkwanụ na unu bịara ịrara m nye nʼaka ndị iro m, ebe aka m dị ọcha, ka Chineke nna nna anyị hụ ihe dị unu nʼobi kpee unu ikpe.”
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.
Mgbe ahụ, Mmụọ Nsọ dakwasịrị Amasai, onyendu iri ndị ikom atọ ahụ, mee ka ọ gwa Devid okwu sị ya, “Anyị bụ ndị gị, Devid! Anyị so gị nʼazụ, gị nwa Jesi! Udo, udo ga-abụ nke gị, udo ga-abụkwa nke ndị na-enyere gị aka, nʼihi na Chineke gị na-enyere gị aka.” Ya mere, Devid nabatara ha mee ha ndịisi agha na-apụnara ndị mmadụ ihe.
19 Some of Manasseh also joined David when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle, but they didn’t help them, for the lords of the Philistines sent him away after consultation, saying, “He will desert to his master Saul to the jeopardy of our heads.”
Ụfọdụ nʼime ndị ebo Manase gbasooro Devid, mgbe ọ gara sonyere ndị Filistia nʼịlụso Sọl ọgụ. Ma ya na ndị agha ya enyereghị ndị Filistia aka, nʼihi na mgbe ndị Filistia gbachara izu, ndị ndu ndị Filistia zilagara ya. Ha kwuru sị, “Isi anyị ka anyị ga-atụfu ma ọ bụrụ na Devid ahapụ anyị nʼọgbọ agha gbakwuru nna ya ukwu bụ Sọl.”
20 As he went to Ziklag, some from Manasseh joined him: Adnah, Jozabad, Jediael, Michael, Jozabad, Elihu, and Zillethai, captains of thousands who were of Manasseh.
Mgbe Devid gara Ziklag, ndị a bụ ndị ikom si nʼebo Manase ndị gbasooro ya: Adna, Jozabad, Jediael, Maikel, Jozabad, Elihu na Ziletai. Ndị a niile bụ ndịisi agha na-achị puku ndị agha nʼebo Manase.
21 They helped David against the band of raiders, for they were all mighty men of valor and were captains in the army.
Ha nyeere Devid aka imegide ndị agha nkwata ahụ, nʼihi na ha niile bụ dike nʼagha, bụrụkwa ndịisi agha.
22 For from day to day men came to David to help him, until there was a great army, like God’s army.
Site nʼụbọchị ruo nʼụbọchị, ọtụtụ ndị ikom na-agbafeta soro Devid, tutu ruo mgbe ha ghọrọ igwe ndị agha, ndị agha nke Chineke.
23 These are the numbers of the heads of those who were armed for war, who came to David to Hebron to turn the kingdom of Saul to him, according to Yahweh’s word.
Ndị a bụ ndị jikeere ibu agha, ndị chịkwa ngwa agha bịakwute Devid na Hebrọn, nʼihi na ha chọrọ ka ọ bịa bụrụ eze ha nʼọnọdụ Sọl, dịka Onyenwe anyị kwuru.

29 Of the children of Benjamin, Saul’s relatives: three thousand, for until then, the greatest part of them had kept their allegiance to Saul’s house.
Ụmụ Benjamin, ndị ikwu Sọl, dị puku atọ, nʼihi na nʼoge a, ọtụtụ ha nọnyeere Sọl.
30 Of the children of Ephraim: twenty thousand eight hundred, mighty men of valor, famous men in their fathers’ houses.

31 Of the half-tribe of Manasseh: eighteen thousand, who were mentioned by name, to come and make David king.
Site nʼọkara ebo Manase, ndị ọnụọgụgụ ha dị puku iri na asatọ ka a họpụtara ịga inyere Devid aka ịbụ eze.
32 Of the children of Issachar, men who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, their heads were two hundred; and all their brothers were at their command.
Ụmụ Isaka; narị ndịisi abụọ, na ndị ha na-edu. Ndịisi a bụ ndị nwere nghọta oge ha nọ nʼime ya marakwa ihe Izrel kwesiri ime nʼoge ahụ.
33 Of Zebulun, such as were able to go out in the army, who could set the battle in array with all kinds of instruments of war: fifty thousand who could command and were not of double heart.
Ụmụ Zebụlọn dị iri puku ise. Ha enweghị obi abụọ ọbụla iso Devid. A zụkwara ha nʼiji ụdị ngwa agha ọbụla na-ebu agha.
34 Of Naphtali: one thousand captains, and with them with shield and spear thirty-seven thousand.

36 Of Asher, such as were able to go out in the army, who could set the battle in array: forty thousand.

37 On the other side of the Jordan, of the Reubenites, the Gadites, and of the half-tribe of Manasseh, with all kinds of instruments of war for the battle: one hundred twenty thousand.
Sitekwa nʼọwụwa anyanwụ Jọdan, site nʼebo Ruben na Gad, na ọkara ebo Manase bi, ndị agha ọnụọgụgụ ha dị narị puku na iri abụọ, ndị ji ụdị ngwa agha ọbụla pụtara soro Devid. Ha bukwa ngwa agha ha pụta.
38 All these were men of war who could order the battle array, and came with a perfect heart to Hebron to make David king over all Israel; and all the rest also of Israel were of one heart to make David king.
Ndị a niile bụ ndị agha na-eje ozi nʼusoro ndị ji obi ha pụta. Ha nwekwara mkpebi mgbe ha si ebe ọbụla ha si pụta ịbịa Hebrọn ime Devid eze. Ndị Izrel niile jikwa otu obi pụta ime Devid eze Izrel.
39 They were there with David three days, eating and drinking; for their brothers had supplied provisions for them.
Mgbe ha pụkwutere Devid, ha so ya rie, ṅụọ, abalị atọ. Ọ bụkwa ihe ndị ezinaụlọ ha kwadoro ha ji bịa ka ha riri.
40 Moreover those who were near to them, as far as Issachar, Zebulun, and Naphtali, brought bread on donkeys, on camels, on mules, and on oxen: supplies of flour, cakes of figs, clusters of raisins, wine, oil, cattle, and sheep in abundance; for there was joy in Israel.
Ndị Isaka, na Zebụlọn, na Naftalị si ebe dị anya bute nri. Ịnyịnya ibu, na ịnyịnya kamel, na ịnyịnya muul na ehi ka ha ji bute nri ndị a.
