David’s Supporters in Ziklag

12Now these are the ones who came to David at Ziklag, while he was still restricted because of Saul the son of Kish; and they were among the mighty men who helped [him] in war.H935H1732H6860H6113H6440H7586H1121H7027H1368H5826H4421 2They were equipped with bows, using both the right hand and the left [to sling] stones and [to shoot] arrows from the bow; [they were] Saul's kinsmen from Benjamin.H5401H7198H3231H8041H68H2671H7198H7586H251H1144 3The chief was Ahiezer, then Joash, the sons of Shemaah the Gibeathite; and Jeziel and Pelet, the sons of Azmaveth, and Beracah and Jehu the Anathothite,H7218H295H3101H1121H8094H1395H3149H6404H1121H5820H1294H3058H6069 4and Ishmaiah the Gibeonite, a mighty man among the thirty, and over the thirty. Then Jeremiah, Jahaziel, Johanan, Jozabad the Gederathite,H3460H1393H1368H7970H7970H3414H3166H3110H3107H1452 5Eluzai, Jerimoth, Bealiah, Shemariah, Shephatiah the Haruphite,H498H3406H1183H8114H8203H2741 6Elkanah, Isshiah, Azarel, Joezer, Jashobeam, the Korahites,H511H3449H5832H3134H3434H7145 7and Joelah and Zebadiah, the sons of Jeroham of Gedor.H3132H2069H1121H3395H1446 8And from the Gadites there came over to David in the stronghold in the wilderness, mighty men of valor, men trained for war, who could handle shield and spear, and whose faces were like the faces of lions, and [ they were] as swift as the gazelles on the mountains.H1425H914H1732H4679H4057H1368H2428H582H6635H4421H6186H6793H7420H6440H6440H738H4116H6643H2022 9Ezer [was] the first, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third,H5829H7218H5662H8145H446H7992 10Mishmannah the fourth, Jeremiah the fifth,H4925H7243H3414H2549 11Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh,H6262H8345H447H7637 12Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth,H3110H8066H443H8671 13Jeremiah the tenth, Machbannai the eleventh.H3414H6224H4344H6249H6240 14These of the sons of Gad were captains of the army; he who was least was equal to a hundred and the greatest to a thousand.H1121H1410H7218H6635H259H6996H3967H1419H505 15These are the ones who crossed the Jordan in the first month when it was overflowing all its banks and they put to flight all those in the valleys, both to the east and to the west.H5674H3383H7223H2320H4390H1415H1428H1272H6010H4217H4628 16Then some of the sons of Benjamin and Judah came to the stronghold to David.H935H1121H1144H3063H4679H1732 17And David went out to meet them, and answered and said to them, "If you come peacefully to me to help me, my heart shall be united with you; but if to betray me to my adversaries, since there is no wrong in my hands, may the God of our fathers look on [it] and decide."H1732H3318H6440H6030H559H935H7965H5826H3824H3162H7411H6862H3808H2555H3709H430H1H7200H3198 18Then the Spirit came upon Amasai, who was the chief of the thirty, [ and he said,] "[We] are yours, O David, And with you, O son of Jesse! Peace, peace to you, And peace to him who helps you; Indeed, your God helps you!" Then David received them and made them captains of the band.H7307H3847H6022H7218H7970H7991H1732H1121H3448H7965H7965H7965H5826H430H5826H1732H6901H5414H7218H1416 19From Manasseh also some defected to David, when he was about to go to battle with the Philistines against Saul. But they did not help them, for the lords of the Philistines after consultation sent him away, saying, " At [the cost of] our heads he may defect to his master Saul. "H5307H4519H1732H935H6430H7586H4421H5826H5633H6430H6098H7971H559H5307H113H7586H7218 20As he went to Ziklag, there defected to him from Manasseh: Adnah, Jozabad, Jediael, Michael, Jozabad, Elihu, and Zillethai, captains of thousands who belonged to Manasseh.H3212H6860H5307H4519H5734H3107H3043H4317H3107H453H6769H7218H505H4519 21And they helped David against the band of raiders, for they were all mighty men of valor, and were captains in the army.H5826H1732H1416H1368H2428H8269H6635 22For day by day [men] came to David to help him, until there was a great army like the army of God.H6256H3117H3117H935H1732H5826H1419H4264H4264H430
