1 Kroniška 12
1 Torej ti so tisti, ki so prišli k Davidu v Ciklág, medtem ko se je še vedno skrival zaradi Kiševega sina Savla in bili so med mogočnimi možmi, pomočniki vojne.
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.
2 Oboroženi so bili z loki in uporabljali so lahko tako desno kakor levo roko v metanju kamnov in streljanju puščic iz loka, celó Savlovi bratje iz Benjamina.
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.

8 Izmed Gádovcev so se k Davidu, v utrjen kraj, v divjini, ločili mogočni možje in možje vojne, primerni za boj, ki so lahko ravnali s ščitom in sulico, katerih obrazi so bili podobni obrazom levov in so bili tako nagli kakor srne po gorah:
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.

Next was Johanan. Next was Elzabad.

Next was [another man whose name was] Jeremiah. The last was Macbannai.
14 Ti so bili Gadovi sinovi, poveljniki vojske; eden izmed najmanjših je bil nad stotimi in največji nad tisočimi.
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.
15 Ti so tisti, ki so šli čez Jordan v prvem mesecu, ko je ta poplavil vse svoje bregove, in zapodili so v beg vse tiste iz dolin, tako proti vzhodu kot proti zahodu.
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.
16 In prišli so izmed Benjaminovih in Judovih otrok k utrjenemu kraju, k Davidu.
Some other men from the tribe of Benjamin and from Judah also came to David in his fortress.
17 David je odšel ven, da jih sreča, jim odgovoril in jim rekel: »Če boste miroljubno prišli k meni, da mi pomagate, se bo moje srce povezalo k vam, toda če boste prišli, da me izdate mojim sovražnikom, ker ni krivice v mojih rokah, [naj] Bog naših očetov pogleda na to in to ošteje.«
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.”
18 Potem je duh prišel nad Amasája, ki je bil vodja poveljnikov in rekel je: »Tvoji smo David in na tvoji strani, Jesejev sin. Mir, mir bodi tebi in mir bodi tvojim pomočnikom, kajti tvoj Bog ti pomaga.« Potem jih je David sprejel in jih postavil za poveljnike čete.
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.”
19 Tam so nekateri prešli od Manáseja k Davidu, ko je s Filistejci prišel zoper Savla, da se bojuje, toda oni jim niso pomagali, kajti filistejski knezi so ga po premisleku poslali proč, rekoč: »Prešel bo k svojemu gospodarju Savlu, da ogrozi naše glave.«
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}!”
20 Medtem ko je šel v Ciklág, so od Manáseja k njemu prestopili Adnáh, Jozabád, Jediaél, Mihael, Jozabád, Elihú in Celetáj, poveljniki tisočih, ki so bili iz Manáseja.
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].
21 Davidu so pomagali zoper krdelo roparjev, kajti vsi so bili močni junaški možje in bili so poveljniki v vojski.
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.
22 Kajti ob tistem času so dan za dnem prihajali k Davidu, da mu pomagajo, dokler to ni bila velika vojska, podobna Božji vojski.
Every day more men joined David’s men, and his army became large, like [SIM] the army of God (OR, a very huge army).
23 To so števila čet, ki so bile oborožene za vojno in so prišle k Davidu v Hebrón, da Savlovo kraljestvo obrnejo k njemu, glede na Gospodovo besedo.
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.

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.
39 Tam so bili z Davidom tri dni, jedli so in pili, kajti njihovi bratje so pripravili zanje.
The men spent three days there with David, eating and drinking, because their families had given them food to take with them.
