2 umjeli su rukovati lukom i desnicom i ljevicom i znali se služiti kamenjem i strijelama. Između Šaulove braće, Benjaminovaca:
[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.

8 Neki su Gadovci prešli k Davidu u tvrđavu u pustinju, hrabri junaci, ratnici vješti boju, naoružani štitom i kopljem; lica im bijahu kao lavovska, a brzi bijahu kao gazele po gorama:
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;

14 To su bile od Gadovih sinova vojne starješine, najmanji nad stotinom, a najveći nad tisućom.

15 To su oni koji su prvoga mjeseca prešli preko Jordana kad se razlio preko svih svojih obala i koji su rastjerali sve stanovnike iz dubokih dolina na istok i na zapad.
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.
16 Došli su i od Benjaminovih i Judinih sinova k Davidu u tvrđavu.
And there came of the children of Benjamin and Judah to the hold unto David.
17 David je izašao pred njih i, progovorivši, rekao im: “Ako dolazite s mirom k meni da mi pomognete, moje će se srce ujediniti s vama; ako li ste došli da me izdate mojim neprijateljima, neka Bog naših otaca vidi i neka osudi, jer nema nepravde na mojim rukama!”
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].
18 Tada duh obuze Amasaja, vojvodu nad tridesetoricom, i on reče: “Tebi, Davide! S tobom, sine Jišajev, mir! Mir s tobom, mir s onim tko ti pomaže, jer tvoj pomoćnik jest tvoj Bog!” Tako ih je David primio i postavio ih među vojvode nad četama.
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.
19 Od Manašeovih su sinova neki prešli k Davidu kad je išao s Filistejcima na Šaula u boj, ali im nije pomogao, jer su ga filistejski knezovi, dobro promislivši, otpustili govoreći: “Mogao bi prijeći k svome gospodaru Šaulu, a to bi nas stajalo glava.”
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.
20 Kad se, dakle, vraćao u Siklag, prešli su k njemu od Manašeova plemena: Adna, Jozabad, Jedael, Mihael, Jozabad, Elihu i Siltaj, glavari tisućnici u Manašeovu plemenu.
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.
21 Oni su pomagali Davidu protiv razbojničkih četa jer su svi bili hrabri junaci te su postali zapovjednici u njegovoj vojsci.
And they helped David against the band [of the rovers: ] for they [were] all mighty men of valour, and were captains in the host.
22 Iz dana u dan odista su dolazili k Davidu da mu pomažu, sve dok njegov tabor ne postade divovski, kao Božji tabor.
For at [that] time day by day there came to David to help him, until [it was] a great host, like the host of God.
