12Now these are the men who came to David at Ziklag, while he could not move about freely because of Saul the son of Kish.

Peace, peace to you, and peace to your helpers! For your God helps you." Then David received them and made them officers of his troops.H7307H3847H6022H7218H7970H7991H1732H1121H3448H7965H7965H7965H5826H430H5826H1732H6901H5414H7218H1416 19Some of the men of Manasseh deserted to David when he came with the Philistines for the battle against Saul. (Yet he did not help them, for the rulers of the Philistines took counsel and sent him away, saying, "At peril to our heads he will desert to his master Saul.")H5307H4519H1732H935H6430H7586H4421H5826H5633H6430H6098H7971H559H5307H113H7586H7218 20As he went to Ziklag, these men of Manasseh deserted to him: Adnah, Jozabad, Jediael, Michael, Jozabad, Elihu, and Zillethai, chiefs of thousands in Manasseh.H3212H6860H5307H4519H5734H3107H3043H4317H3107H453H6769H7218H505H4519 21They helped David against the band of raiders, for they were all mighty men of valor and were commanders in the army.H5826H1732H1416H1368H2428H8269H6635 22For from day to day men came to David to help him, until there was a great army, like an army of God.H6256H3117H3117H935H1732H5826H1419H4264H4264H430 23These are the numbers of the divisions of the armed troops who came to David in Hebron to turn the kingdom of Saul over to him, according to the word of the LORD.H4557H7218H2502H6635H935H1732H2275H5437H4438H7586H6310H3068 24The men of Judah bearing shield and spear were 6,800 armed troops.H1121H3063H5375H6793H7420H8337H505H8083H3967H2502H6635 25Of the Simeonites, mighty men of valor for war, 7,100.H1121H8095H1368H2428H6635H7651H505H3967 26Of the Levites 4,600.H1121H3878H702H505H8337H3967 27The prince Jehoiada, of the house of Aaron, and with him 3,700.H3077H5057H175H7969H505H7651H3967 28Zadok, a young man mighty in valor, and twenty-two commanders from his own fathers' house.H6659H5288H1368H2428H1H1004H6242H8147H8269 29Of the Benjaminites, the kinsmen of Saul, 3,000, of whom the majority had to that point kept their allegiance to the house of Saul.H1121H1144H251H7586H7969H505H4768H8104H4931H1004H7586 30Of the Ephraimites 20,800, mighty men of valor, famous men in their fathers' houses.H1121H669H6242H505H8083H3967H1368H582H2428H8034H1004H1 31Of the half-tribe of Manasseh 18,000, who were expressly named to come and make David king.H2677H4294H4519H8083H6240H505H5344H8034H935H1732H4427 32Of Issachar, men who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, 200 chiefs, and all their kinsmen under their command.H1121H3485H998H3045H6256H3045H3478H6213H7218H3967H251H6310 33Of Zebulun 50,000 seasoned troops, equipped for battle with all the weapons of war, to help David with singleness of purpose.H2074H3318H6635H6186H4421H3627H4421H2572H505H5737H3820H3820 34Of Naphtali 1,000 commanders with whom were 37,000 men armed with shield and spear.H5321H505H8269H6793H2595H7970H7651H505 35Of the Danites 28,600 men equipped for battle.H1839H6186H4421H6242H8083H505H8337H3967 36Of Asher 40,000 seasoned troops ready for battle.H836H3318H6635H6186H4421H705H505 37Of the Reubenites and Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh from beyond the Jordan, 120,000 men armed with all the weapons of war.H5676H3383H7206H1425H2677H7626H4519H3627H6635H4421H3967H6242H505 38All these, men of war, arrayed in battle order, came to Hebron with full intent to make David king over all Israel.
