¹Now these are they that came to David to Ziklag, while he kept still close because of Saul the son of Kish; and they were among the mighty men who helped him in the conflict;

¹[Ny lehilahy mahery izay nanatona an'i Davida, fony izy mbola nenjehin'i Saoly] Ary izao no nankany amin'i Davida tany Ziklaga, fony izy mbola niery an'i Saoly, zanak'i Kisy; ary isan'ny lehilahy mahery mpanampy amin'ny ady ireo

²armed with bows, using both the right hand and the left with stones and with arrows on the bow; [they were] of Saul's brethren of Benjamin:

²sady mpitondra tsipìka ka nahay nanavia sy nanavanana raha nitora-bato na nandefa tsipìka. Isan'ny Benjamita, rahalahin'i Saoly, ireo.

⁸And of the Gadites, there separated themselves to David in the stronghold in the wilderness mighty men of valour, men fit for the service of war, armed with shield and spear; whose faces were [like] the faces of lions, and who were swift as the gazelles upon the mountains:

⁸Ary tamin'ny Gadita nisy lehilahy mahery niendaka hanatona an'i Davida ho amin'ny fiarovana tany an-efitra, dia ny miaramila nahay niady ka nahatana ampinga lehibe sy lefona; ny tarehiny dia tahaka ny tarehin'ny liona, ary faingam-pandeha tahaka ny gazela eny an-tendrombohitra izy.[Izahao 2 Sam. i. 19]

⁹Ezer the first, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third,

¹⁴These were of the sons of Gad, captains of the host: one of the least was over a hundred, and the greatest over a thousand.

¹⁴Ireo no isan'ny taranak'i Gada sady samy mpifehy miaramila; ny kely indrindra naharesy olona zato, ary ny lehibe indrindra naharesy arivo.

¹⁵These are they that went over Jordan in the first month, when it overflows all its banks, and they put to flight all [them] of the valleys, toward the east and toward the west.

¹⁵Ireo no nita an'i Jordana tamin'ny volana voalohany, fony iny nihoatra ny morony rehetra; ary nampandositra izay rehetra teny amin'ny lohasaha na atsinanana na andrefana ireo.

¹⁶And there came of the children of Benjamin and Judah to the stronghold to David.

¹⁶Ary nisy tamin'ny taranak'i Benjamina sy Joda nankany amin'i Davida tany amin'ny fiarovana.

¹⁷And David went out to meet them, and answered and said to them, If ye come peaceably to me to help me, my heart shall be knit unto you; but if to betray me to mine enemies, seeing there is no wrong in my hands, the God of our fathers see [it] and rebuke [it].

¹⁷Ary Davida nivoaka hitsena azy ka niteny taminy hoe: Raha fihavanana no ihavianareo atỳ amiko hanampy ahy, dia hikambana isika; fa raha avy hamadika ahy kosa ianareo ho azon'ny fahavaloko, nefa tsy mba nanao an-keriny ny tanako, dia Andriamanitry ny razantsika no hijery sy hamaly izany.

¹⁸And the Spirit came upon Amasai, the chief of the captains, [and he said,] Thine [are we], David, And with thee, thou son of Jesse: Peace, peace be to thee! And peace be to thy helpers! For thy God helps thee. And David received them, and made them chiefs of bands.

¹⁸Ary Amasay, lehiben'ny mpanafika malaza, dia nampitenenin'ny Fanahy hoe: Anao izahay, ry Davida ô, fa miandany aminao, ry zanak'i Jese; fiadanana, eny, fiadanana anie ho anao, ary fiadanana anie ho an'ny manampy anao; fa Andriamanitrao no manampy anao. Dia noraisin'i Davida ireo ka notendreny ho mpifehy ny miaramila.[Na: ny telo-polo lahy]

¹⁹And 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 deliberation sent him away, saying, He will fall to his master Saul at the peril of our heads.

¹⁹Ary nisy sasany tamin'ny Manase niala hanatona an'i Davida, raha nomba ny Filistina hiady amin'i Saoly izy, nefa tsy nanampy azy izy; fa ireo andrianan'ny Filistina nifampisaina, dia nampandeha azy ka nanao hoe: Ny lohantsika no ho entiny mila sitraka hiverenany amin'i Saoly tompony.

²⁰As he went away 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.

²⁰Raha nankany Ziklaga izy, nisy tamin'ny Manase nanatona azy, dia Adna sy Jozabada sy Jediada sy Mikaela sy Jozabada sy Eliho ary Ziletahy, mpifehy arivo tamin'ny Manase.

²¹And they helped David in his expeditions; for they were all mighty men of valour, and were captains in the host.

²¹Ary ireo dia nanampy an'i Davida hamely ny antokon'ny jirika; fa lehilahy mahery avokoa izy sady komandy amin'ny miaramila.

²²For day by day there came [men] to David to help him, until it was a great camp, like the camp of God.

²²Fa tamin'izany nisy nankany amin'i Davida isan'andro isan'andro hanampy azy mandra-pahatongany ho toby lehibe toy ny tobin'Andriamanitra.

²³And this is the number of the men equipped for military service, who came to David to Hebron, to transfer the kingdom of Saul to him, according to the word of Jehovah.

²³[Ny amin'ny miaramila avy tamin'ny Isiraely rehetra izay nanatona an'i Davida tao Hebrona hampanjaka azy] Ary izao no isan'ny miaramila efa voaomana hiady, izay tonga tao amin'i Davida tao Hebrona hamindra ny fanjakan'i Saoly ho azy araka ny tenin'i Jehovah:

²⁴The children of Judah that bore shield and spear were six thousand eight hundred, equipped for military service.

²⁸ary Zadoka, zatovo mahery, sy ny fianakaviany, dia roa amby roa-polo lahy mpifehy.

²⁹And of the children of Benjamin, the brethren of Saul, three thousand; but hitherto the greater part of them had adhered to the house of Saul.

²⁹Ary tamin'ny taranak'i Benjamina, havan'i Saoly, telo arivo; fa hatramin'izany ny ankamaroany mbola nomba ny mpianakavin'i Saoly ihany.

³⁰And of the children of Ephraim twenty thousand eight hundred, mighty men of valour, men of name in their fathers' houses.

³⁰Ary tamin'ny taranak'i Efraima dia valon-jato amby roa alina, lehilahy mahery avokoa sady samy nalaza tamin'ny fianakaviany avy.

³¹And of the half tribe of Manasseh eighteen thousand, who were expressed by name, to come and make David king.

³¹Ary tamin'ny antsasaky ny firenen'i Manase dia valo arivo amby iray alina, izay notononina anarana ho avy hampanjaka an'i Davida.

³²And of the children of Issachar, who 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 bidding.

³²Ary tamin'ny taranak'Isakara dia roanjato no lohany, samy nahay namantatra tsara izay fotoana mety ka nahalala izay lokony hataon'ny Isiraely; ary ny rahalahiny rehetra nanaraka ny teniny.

³³Of Zebulun, such as went forth in the host, armed for war with all weapons of war, fifty thousand, keeping rank without double heart.

³³Tamin'ny Zebolona, izay azo nalefa hanafika ka nahay niady tamin'ny fiadiana samy hafa rehetra dia dimy alina, izay nahay nilahatra tsara tamin'ny firaisan-kina.

³⁴And of Naphtali a thousand captains, and with them thirty-seven thousand with shield and spear.

³⁴Ary tamin'ny Naftaly dia nisy mpifehy arivo, ary manaraka azy dia nisy fito arivo amby telo alina amin'ampinga lehibe sy lefona.

³⁵And of the Danites armed for war twenty-eight thousand six hundred.

³⁵Ary tamin'ny Danita dia enin-jato amby valo arivo sy roa alina izay nahay niady.

³⁶And of Asher such as went forth in the host, to set themselves in battle array, forty thousand.

³⁶Ary tamin'ny Asera, efatra alina izay azo nalefa hanafika sady nahay niady.

³⁷And from the other side of the Jordan, of the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and of the half tribe of Manasseh, with all manner of weapons of war for battle, a hundred and twenty thousand.

³⁷Ary avy tany an-dafin'i Jordana, tamin'ny Robenita sy ny Gadita ary ny antsasaky ny firenen'i Manase, nisy roa alina amby iray hetsy nitana fiadiana samy hafa rehetra.

³⁸All of them men of war, keeping rank in battle array, 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.

³⁸Ireo miaramila rehetra ireo, izay nahay nilahatra tsara, dia niray fo nankany Hebrona hampanjaka an'i Davida amin'ny Isiraely rehetra; ary ny sisa rehetra tamin'ny Isiraely koa niray fo hampanjaka an'i Davida.

³⁹And there they were with David three days, eating and drinking; for their brethren had prepared for them;

³⁹Ary tao amin'i Davida hateloana izy sady nihinana sy nisotro; fa efa nanao nahandro ho azy ny rahalahiny.Ary izay teo akaikiny koa hatramin'ny Isakara sy ny Zebolona ary ny Naftaly dia samy nampitondra hanina samy hafa nentin'ny boriky sy rameva sy ampondra ary omby, dia koba sy ampempan'aviavy sy voaloboka maina sy divay sy diloilo, ary omby sy ondry aman'osy betsaka koa; fa nisy fifaliana tamin'ny Isiraely.

⁴⁰and those too that were near them, as far as Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, brought food on asses, and on camels, and on mules, and on oxen; provisions of meal, fig-cakes and raisin-cakes, and wine and oil, and oxen and sheep, abundantly; for there was joy in Israel.

⁴⁰Ary izay teo akaikiny koa hatramin'ny Isakara sy ny Zebolona ary ny Naftaly dia samy nampitondra hanina samy hafa nentin'ny boriky sy rameva sy ampondra ary omby, dia koba sy ampempan'aviavy sy voaloboka maina sy divay sy diloilo, ary omby sy ondry aman'osy betsaka koa; fa nisy fifaliana tamin'ny Isiraely.
