1CH-12:1 Now these [are] they that came to David to Ziklag,
while he yet kept himself close because of Saul the son of Kish:
and they [were] among the mighty men, helpers of the war.
1CH-12:2 [They were] armed with bows, and could use both the
right hand and the left in [hurling] stones and [shooting]
arrows out of a bow, [even] of Saul's brethren of Benjamin.
1CH-12:3 The chief [was] Ahiezer, then Joash, the sons of
Shemaah the Gibeathite; and Jeziel, and Pelet, the sons of
Azmaveth; and Berachah, and Jehu the Antothite,
1CH-12:4 And Ismaiah the Gibeonite, a mighty man among the
thirty, and over the thirty; and Jeremiah, and Jahaziel, and
Johanan, and Josabad the Gederathite,

1CH-12:8 And of the Gadites there separated themselves unto
David into the hold to the wilderness men of might, [and] men of
war [fit] for the battle, that could handle shield and buckler,
whose faces [were like] the faces of lions, and [were] as swift
as the roes upon the mountains;

1CH-12:13 Jeremiah the tenth, Machbanai the eleventh.

one of the least [was] over an hundred, and the greatest over a
thousand.
1CH-12:15 These [are] they that went over Jordan in the first
month, when it had overflown all his banks; and they put to
flight all [them] of the valleys, [both] toward the east, and
toward the west.
1CH-12:16 And there came of the children of Benjamin and Judah
to the hold unto David.
1CH-12:17 And David went out to meet them, and answered and said
unto them, If ye be come peaceably unto me to help me, mine
heart shall be knit unto you: but if [ye be come] to betray me
to mine enemies, seeing [there is] no wrong in mine hands, the
God of our fathers look [thereon], and rebuke [it].
1CH-12:18 Then the spirit came upon Amasai, [who was] chief of
the captains, [and he said], Thine [are we], David, and on thy
side, thou son of Jesse: peace, peace [be] unto thee, and peace
[be] to thine helpers; for thy God helpeth thee. Then David
received them, and made them captains of the band.
1CH-12:19 And there fell [some] of Manasseh to David, when he
came with the Philistines against Saul to battle: but they
helped them not: for the lords of the Philistines upon
advisement sent him away, saying, He will fall to his master
Saul to [the jeopardy of] our heads.
1CH-12:20 As he went to Ziklag, there fell to him of Manasseh,
Adnah, and Jozabad, and Jediael, and Michael, and Jozabad, and
Elihu, and Zilthai, captains of the thousands that [were] of
Manasseh.
1CH-12:21 And they helped David against the band [of the rovers]:
for they [were] all mighty men of valour, and were captains in
the host.

help him, until [it was] a great host, like the host of God.

with him [were] three thousand and seven hundred;
1CH-12:28 And Zadok, a young man mighty of valour, and of his
father's house twenty and two captains.
1CH-12:29 And of the children of Benjamin, the kindred of Saul,
three thousand: for hitherto the greatest part of them had kept
the ward of the house of Saul.

eight hundred, mighty men of valour, famous throughout the house
of their fathers.

which were expressed by name, to come and make David king.
1CH-12:32 And of the children of Issachar, [which were men] that
had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do;
the heads of them [were] two hundred; and all their brethren
[were] at their commandment.
1CH-12:33 Of Zebulun, such as went forth to battle, expert in
war, with all instruments of war, fifty thousand, which could
keep rank: [they were] not of double heart.

with shield and spear thirty and seven thousand.

and the Gadites, and of the half tribe of Manasseh, with all
manner of instruments of war for the battle, an hundred and
twenty thousand.
1CH-12:38 All these men of war, that could keep rank, 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.
1CH-12:39 And there they were with David three days, eating and
drinking: for their brethren had prepared for them.
1CH-12:40 Moreover they that were nigh them, [even] unto
Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, brought bread on asses, and
on camels, and on mules, and on oxen, [and] meat, meal, cakes of
figs, and bunches of raisins, and wine, and oil, and oxen, and
sheep abundantly: for [there was] joy in Israel.
