1 Also, these went to David at Ziklag, while he was still fleeing from Saul, the son of Kish. And they were very strong and distinguished fighters,	1 Questi vennero a David in Siceleg, quando egli fuggia Saul figliuolo di Cis, i quali erano fortissimi e robustissimi combattitori,
2 bending the bow, and using either hand in casting stones with slings, and shooting arrows. From the brothers of Saul, out of Benjamin:	2 tendenti l'arco, e gittavano sassi con le fionde con amendue le mani, e gittavano le saette; de' fratelli di Saul [di] Beniamin,
3 the leader was Ahiezer, with Joash, sons of Shemaah from Gibeah, and Jeziel and Pelet, sons of Azmaveth, and Beracah and Jehu, from Anathoth.	3 principe Aiezer e Ioas, figliuoli di Samaa, Gabaatiti, e Iaziel, e Fallet, figliuoli di Azmot, e Baraca e Ieu Anatotiti;
4 Also, there was Ishmaiah, from Gibeon, the strongest among the thirty and over the thirty; Jeremiah, and Jahaziel, and Johanan, and Jozabad, from Gederah;	4 e Samaia Gabaonite fortissimo tra' trenta e sopra li trenta, Ieremia e Ieeziel e Ioanan e Iezabad Gaderotiti;
5 and Eluzai, and Jerimoth, and Bealiah, and Shemariah, and Shephatiah, the Haruphites;	5 ed Eluzai e Ierimut, Baalia e Samaria e Safatia Arufiti;

7 and also Joelah and Zebadiah, sons of Jeroham, from Gedor.	7 E Ioela e Zabadia figliuoli di Ieroam di Gedor.
8 Then too, from Gad, there went over to David, when he was hiding in the desert, very robust men, who were excellent fighters, taking hold of shield and spear; their faces were like the faces of a lion, and they were swift like the roe deer upon the mountains.	8 E anco di Gaddi rifuggirono a David uomini robustissimi, quando egli era nascoso nel deserto; ed erano ottimi combattitori, tenenti iscudi e lancie; e' visi loro come di leoni, veloci sì come cavrioli di montagna;
9 Ezer was the leader, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third,	9 Ezer principe, Obdia secondo, Eliab terzo,
10 Mishmannah the fourth, Jeremiah the fifth,	10 Masmana quarto, Ieremia quinto,
11 Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh,	11 Eti sesto, Eliel settimo,
12 Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth,	12 Ioanan ottavo, Elzebat nono,
13 Jeremiah the tenth, Machbannai the eleventh.	13 Ieremia decimo, Macbanai undecimo;
14 These were from the sons of Gad, leaders of the army. The least was in charge of one hundred soldiers, and the greatest was in charge of one thousand.	14 questi dei figliuoli di Gad principi dello esercito; novissimo era sopra cento militi, e massimo sopra mille.
15 These are the ones who crossed over the Jordan in the first month, when it is accustomed to overflow its banks. And they put to flight all those who were staying in the valleys, to the eastern region and to the west.	15 Questi sono quelli che passarono il Giordano il primo mese, quando era usato di trapassare di sopra alle ripe sue; e fuggirono tutti quelli che abitavano nelle valli dalla parte d'oriente e dalla parte d' occidente.
16 Then some from Benjamin and from Judah also arrived at the stronghold where David was staying.	16 E vennero anche di Beniamin e di Giuda adiutorio dove dimorava David.
17 And David went out to meet them, and he said: “If you have arrived peacefully, so as to be a help to me, may my heart be joined to you; but if to betray me to my adversaries, though I have no iniquity in my hands, may the God of our fathers see and judge.”	17 E David uscìo loro incontro, e disse loro: venite voi a me pacifici per aiutarmi? il mio cuore sia unito con esso voi; ma se voi mi insidiate per gli nemici miei, conciosia cosa ch' io non abbia per le mie mani iniquità, veggia lo Iddio de' nostri padri, e giùdichilo.
18 Truly, the Spirit clothed Amasai, the leader among the thirty, and he said: “O David, we are yours! O son of Jesse, we are for you! Peace, peace to you, and peace to your helpers. For your God helps you.” Therefore, David received them, and he appointed them as leaders of troops.	18 E lo spirito vestìo Amasai principe trai trenta, e disse: o David, noi siamo tuoi, e con esso teco, figliuolo d' Isai; pace, pace sia con teco e con tutti gli tuoi adiutori; però che il tuo Iddio aiuta te. Onde David gli ricevette, e ordinò prìncipi delle turbe.
19 Moreover, some from Manasseh crossed over to David, when he went forth with the Philistines against Saul, so that he might fight. But he did not fight with them. For the leaders of the Philistines, taking counsel, sent him back, saying, “To the peril of our own heads, he will return to his lord, Saul.”	19 E anche di Manasse rifuggirono a David, quando venia coi Filistei per combattere contro a Saul; e non combatteo con loro; però che fatto consiglio, i principi de' Filistei lo rimandarono dicendo: con pericolo del nostro capo si ritornerà al suo signore Saul.
20 And so, when he returned to Ziklag, some fled over to him from Manasseh: Adnah, and Jozabad, and Jediael, and Michael, and Adnah, and Jozabad, and Elihu, and Zillethai, leaders of thousands in Manasseh.	20 Or quando egli si ritornò in Siceleg, transfuggirono a lui di Manasse: Ednas e Iozabad, Iediel, Micael ed Ednas e Iozabad [ed Eliu] e Salati principi de' cavalieri in Manasse.
21 These offered assistance to David against the robbers. For all were very strong men, and they became leaders in the army.	21 Questi diedero aiuto a David contro a' ladroncelli; ed erano tutti uomini fortissimi, e furono fatti principi nello esercito.
22 Then, too, some came to David throughout each day, in order to help him, until they became a great number, like the army of God.	22 E ogni di venivano a David in suo aiuto, tanto che fue fatto grande numero, quasi esercito di Dio.
23 Now this is the number of the leaders of the army who went to David when he was at Hebron, so that they might transfer the kingdom of Saul to him, in accord with the word of the Lord:	23 E questo è il numero de' principi dello esercito, che vennero a David, essendo egli in Ebron, per transmutare a lui il regno di Saul, secondo la parola di Dio.
24 the sons of Judah, carrying shield and spear, six thousand eight hundred, equipped for battle;	24 I figliuoli di Giuda, portanti scudo e lancia, ed espediti a battaglia, semilia ottocento;
25 from the sons of Simeon, very strong men for the fight, seven thousand one hundred;	25 de' figliuoli di Simeon, fortissimi a combattere, settemilia cento;
26 from the sons of Levi, four thousand six hundred;	26 de' figliuoli di Levi quattromilia secento;
27 as well as Jehoiada, a leader from the stock of Aaron, and with him three thousand seven hundred;	27 e Ioiada principe della stirpe d' Aaron, e con esso tremilia settecento;
28 and then Zadok, a youth of distinguished qualities, and the house of his father, twenty-two leaders;	28 e Sadoc, giovane di buona qualità, e della casa del suo padre, principi XXII.
29 and from the sons of Benjamin, brothers of Saul, three thousand, for still a great part of them were following the house of Saul.	29 e de' figliuoli di Beniamin fratelli di Saul, tre milia; e grande parte di loro seguitava ancora la casa di Saul;
30 Then from the sons of Ephraim, there were twenty thousand eight hundred, very strong and robust men, renowned among their kindred.	30 e de' figliuoll di Efraim ventimilia ottocento, uomini fortissimi e nominati nelle cognazioni loro;
31 And out of the one half tribe of Manasseh, eighteen thousand, each by their names, went forth so that they might appoint David as king.	31 e della mezza (parte della) tribù di Manasse XVIII milia, ciascuno per nome, vennero a David per farlo re;
32 Also, from the sons of Issachar, there were learned men, who knew each of the times, in order to anticipate what Israel ought to do, two hundred leaders. And all the remainder of the tribe were following their counsel.	32 de' figliuoli d' Issacar uomini savi, i quali conoscevano tutti i tempi a comandare quello che Israel dovesse fare, principi ducento; e tutta l'altra tribù seguitava il consiglio loro.
33 Then, from Zebulun, there were those who went forth to battle, and who were standing in a battle line, prepared with the weapons of warfare; these fifty thousand arrived to assist, without duplicity of heart.	33 E di Zabulon, uomini i quali uscivano a battaglia, e istavano in ischiera armati d'arme a combattere, cinquantamilia ne vennero in aiuto (a David), non con doppio cuore;
34 And from Naphtali, there were one thousand leaders; and with them were thirty-seven thousand, prepared with shield and spear.	34 di Neftali mille principi; e con esso loro uomini dotti nelli scudi e asta, XXXVII milia;
35 And then from Dan, there were twenty-eight thousand six hundred, ready for battle.	35 di Dan uomini apparecchiati a combattere XXVIII milia secento;
36 And from Asher, there were forty thousand, going forth to fight, and summoned to the battle line.	36 e di Aser uomini che uscivano a battaglia, e che istavano in schiera, quarantamilia;
37 Then, across the Jordan, there were, from the sons of Reuben, and from Gad, and from the one half tribe of Manasseh, one hundred twenty thousand, prepared with the weapons of warfare.	37 e di oltre al Giordano de' figliuoli di Ruben e di Gad e di mezza la tribù di Manasse, forniti d'arme da combattere, CXX milia.
38 All these men of war, equipped for the fight, went with a perfect heart to Hebron, so that they might appoint David as king over all of Israel. Then, too, all the remainder of Israel were of one heart, so that they might make David king.	38 Tutti questi uomini combattitori ed espediti a battaglia con perfetto cuore vennero in Ebron per fare David re sopra tutto Israel; e tutti gli altri d' Israel erano di una volontà, che David si fesse re (sopra Israel).
39 And they were in that place with David for three days, eating and drinking. For their brothers had made preparations for them.	39 E istettero ivi con esso David a mangiare tre die; però che i loro fratelli aveano apparecchiato loro.
40 Moreover, those who were near to them, even as far as Issachar, and Zebulun, and Naphtali, were bringing, on donkeys and camels and mules and oxen, bread for their provisions, with grain, dried figs, dried grapes, wine, oil, and oxen and sheep, with all abundance. For indeed, there was joy in Israel.	40 E quelli che erano presso [loro], insino ad Issacar e Zabulon e Neftali, portavano il pane in su gli asini, in su i camelli, in su i muli; e con buoi a mangiare, farina, fichi secchi, uve passe, vino, olio, buoi, montoni in abbondanza; però che allegrezza era in Israel.
