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

¹And these [are] those coming in unto David to Ziklag, while shut up because of Saul son of Kish, and they [are] among the mighty ones, helping the battle,

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

²armed with bow, right and left handed, with stones, and with arrows, with bows, of the brethren of Saul, of Benjamin.

³Ny lohany dia Ahiezera sy Joasy, zanak'i Sema Gibeatita, sy Jeziela sy Peleta zanak'i Azmaveta, ary Beraka sy Jeho Anatotita

³The head [is] Ahiezer, and Joash, sons of Shemaab the Gibeathite, and Jeziel, and Pelet, sons of Azmaveth, and Berachah, and Jehu the Antothite,

⁴ary Jismaia Gibeonita, lehilahy mahery isan'ny telo-polo lahy sady mpifehy ny telo-polo lahy, ary Jeremia sy Jahaziela sy Johanana sy Jozababa Gaderatita

⁴and Ishmaiah the Gibeonite, a mighty one among the thirty, and over the thirty, and Jeremiah, and Jahaziel, and Johanan, and Josabad the Gederathite.

⁵sy Elozay sy Jerimota ary Bealia sy Semaria sy Sefatia Harofita

⁵Eluzai, and Jerimoth, and Bealiah, and Shemariah, and Shephatiah the Haruphite;

⁶sy Elkana sy Jisia sy Azarela sy Joezera ary Jasobeama Koraita

⁶Elkanah, and Jesiah, and Azareel, and Joezer, and Jashobeam the Korhites,

⁷ary Joela sy Zebadia, zanak'i Jerohama avy any Gedora.

⁷and Joelah, and Zebadiah, sons of Jeroham of Gedor.

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]

⁸And of the Gadite there have been separated unto David, to the fortress, to the wilderness, mighty of valour, men of the host for battle, setting in array target and buckler, and their faces the face of the lion, and as roes on the mountains for speed:

⁹Ezera no voalohany, Obadia no faharoa, Eliaba no fahatelo,

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

¹⁰Mismana no fahefatra, Jeremia no fahadimy,

¹⁰Mishmannah the fourth, Jeremiah the fifth,

¹¹Atahy no fahenina, Eliala no fahafito,

¹¹Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh,

¹²Johanana no fahavalo, Elizabada no fahasivy,

¹²Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth,

¹³Jeremia no fahafolo, Makbanay no fahiraika ambin'ny folo.

¹³Jeremiah the tenth, Machbannai the eleventh.

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

¹⁴These [are] of the sons of Gad, heads of the host, one of a hundred [is] the least, and the greatest, of a thousand;

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.

¹⁵these [are] they who have passed over the Jordan in the first month, — and it is full over all its banks — and cause all [they of] the valley to flee to the east and to the west.

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

¹⁶And there come of the sons of Benjamin and Judah unto the stronghold to David,

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.

¹⁷and David goeth out before them, and answereth and saith to them, `If for peace ye have come in unto me, to help me, I have a heart to unite with you; and if to betray me to mine adversaries — without violence in my hands — the God of our fathers doth see and reprove.`

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]

¹⁸And the Spirit hath clothed Amasai, head of the captains: `To thee, O David, and with thee, O son of Jesse — peace! peace to thee, and peace to thy helper, for thy God hath helped thee;` and David receiveth them, and putteth them among the heads of the troop.

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.

¹⁹And of Manasseh there have fallen unto David in his coming with the Philistines against Israel to battle — and they helped them not, for by counsel the princes of the Philistines sent him away, saying, `With our heads he doth fall unto his master Saul.` —

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.

²⁰In his going unto Ziglag there have fallen unto him of Manasseh, Adnah, and Jozabad, and Jediael, and Michael, and Jozabad, and Elihu, and Zillthai, heads of the thousands that [are] of Manasseh;

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

²¹and they have helped with David over the troop, for mighty of valour [are] all of them, and they are captains in the host,

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

²²for at that time, day by day, they come in unto David to help him, till it is a great camp, like a camp of God.

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:

²³And these [are] the numbers of the head, of the armed men of the host; they have come in unto David to Hebron to turn round the kingdom of Saul unto him, according to the mouth of Jehovah.

²⁴Tamin'ny taranak'i Joda, valon-jato amby enina arivo, mpitondra ampinga lehibe sy lefona sady efa voaomana hiady.

²⁴The sons of Judah, bearing target and spear, [are] six thousand and eight hundred, armed ones of the host.

²⁵Tamin'ny taranak'i Simeona, zato amby fito arivo, lehilahy mahery sady matanjaka amin'ny ady.

²⁵Of the sons of Simeon, mighty ones of valour for the host, [are] seven thousand and a hundred.

²⁶Tamin'ny taranak'i Levy, enin-jato amby efatra arivo.

²⁶Of the sons of Levi [are] four thousand and six hundred;

²⁷Ary Joiada dia lehiben'ny Aronita, ary nisy fiton-jato amby telo arivo teo aminy;

²⁷and Jehoiada [is] the leader of the Aaronite, and with him [are] three thousand and seven hundred,

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

²⁸and Zadok, a young man, mighty of valour, and of the house of his father [are] twenty and two heads.

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

²⁹And of the sons of Benjamin, brethren of Saul, [are] three thousand, and hitherto their greater part are keeping the charge of the house of Saul.

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

³⁰And of the sons of Ephraim [are] twenty thousand and eight hundred, mighty of valour, men of name, according to the house of their fathers.

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

³¹And of the half of the tribe of Manasseh [are] eighteen thousand, who have been defined by name, to come in to cause David to reign.

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.

³²And of the sons of Issachar, having understanding for the times, to know what Israel should do; their heads [are] two hundred, and all their brethren [are] at their command.

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.

³³Of Zebulun, going forth to the host, arranging battle with all instruments of battle, [are] fifty thousand, and keeping rank without a double heart.

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

³⁴And of Naphtali, a thousand heads, and with them, with target and spear, [are] thirty and seven thousand.

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

³⁵And of the Danite, arranging battle, [are] twenty and eight thousand and six hundred.

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

³⁶And of Asher, going forth to the host, to arrange battle, [are] forty 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.

³⁷And from beyond the Jordan, of the Reubenite, and of the Gadite, and of the half of the tribe of Manasseh, with all instruments of the host for battle, [are] a hundred and twenty thousand.

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.

³⁸All these [are] men of war, keeping rank — with a perfect heart they have come to Hebron, to cause David to reign over all Israel, and also all the rest of Israel [are] of one heart, to cause David to reign,

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.

³⁹and they are there, with David, three days, eating and drinking, for their brethren have prepared for them.

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.

⁴⁰And also those near unto them, unto Issachar, and Zebulun, and Naphtali, are bringing in bread on asses, and on camels, and on mules, and on oxen — food of fine flour, fig-cakes and grape-cakes, and wine, and oil, and oxen, and sheep, in abundance, for joy [is] in Israel.
