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

¹Now these are those who 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, his helpers in war.

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

²They were armed with bows, and could use both the right hand and the left in slinging stones and in shooting arrows from the bow: they were of Saul’s brothers 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 chief was Ahiezer; then Joash, the sons of Shemaah the Gibeathite, and Jeziel, and Pelet, the sons of Azmaveth, and Beracah, and Jehu the Anathothite,

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 man among the thirty, and over the thirty, and Jeremiah, and Jahaziel, and Johanan, and Jozabad 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 Isshiah, and Azarel, and Joezer, and Jashobeam, the Korahites,

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

⁷and Joelah, and Zebadiah, the 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]

⁸Of the Gadites there separated themselves to David to the stronghold in the wilderness, mighty men of valor, men trained for war, that could handle shield and spear; whose faces were like the faces of lions, and they were as swift as the roes on the mountains;

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

⁹Ezer the chief, 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 of the sons of Gad were captains of the army: he who was least was equal to one hundred, and the greatest to one 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 those who went over the Jordan in the first month, when it had overflowed all its banks; and they put to flight all them of the valleys, both toward the east, and toward the west.

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

¹⁶There came of the children of Benjamin and Judah to 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.

¹⁷David went out to meet them, and answered them, “If you have come peaceably to me to help me, my heart shall be knit to you; but if you have come to betray me to my adversaries, since there is no wrong in my hands, may the God of our fathers look thereon, and rebuke it.”

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]

¹⁸Then the Spirit came on Amasai, who was chief of the thirty, and he said, “We are yours, David, and on your side, you son of Jesse: peace, peace be to you, and peace be to your helpers; for your God helps you.” Then David received them, and made them captains of the band.

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.

¹⁹Of Manasseh also there fell away some to David, when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle; but they didn’t help them; for the lords of the Philistines sent him away after consultation, saying, “He will fall away to his master Saul to the jeopardy of our heads.”

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.

²⁰As he went to Ziklag, there fell to him of Manasseh, Adnah, and Jozabad, and Jediael, and Michael, and Jozabad, and Elihu, and Zillethai, captains of thousands who were of Manasseh.

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

²¹They helped David against the band of rovers: for they were all mighty men of valor, and were captains in the army.

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

²²For from day to day men came to David to help him, until there was a great army, like the army 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:

²³These are the numbers of the heads of those who were armed for war, who came to David to Hebron, to turn the kingdom of Saul to him, according to the word of Yahweh.

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

²⁴The children of Judah who bore shield and spear were six thousand and eight hundred, armed for war.

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

²⁵Of the children of Simeon, mighty men of valor for the war, seven thousand and one hundred.

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

²⁶Of the children of Levi four thousand and six hundred.

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

²⁷Jehoiada was the leader of the household of Aaron; and with him were 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 valor, and of his father’s house twenty-two captains.

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

²⁹Of the children of Benjamin, the brothers of Saul, three thousand: for hitherto the greatest part of them had kept their allegiance to 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.

³⁰Of the children of Ephraim twenty thousand eight hundred, mighty men of valor, famous men in their fathers’ houses.

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

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

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.

³²Of the children of Issachar, men who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, their heads were two hundred; and all their brothers were at their commandment.

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, such as were able to go out in the army, who could set the battle in array, with all kinds of instruments of war, fifty thousand, and who could command and were not of 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.

³⁴Of Naphtali one thousand captains, and with them with shield and spear thirty-seven thousand.

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

³⁵Of the Danites who could set the battle in array, twenty-eight thousand six hundred.

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

³⁶Of Asher, such as were able to go out in the army, who could set the battle in array, 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.

³⁷On the other side of the Jordan, of the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and of the half-tribe of Manasseh, with all kinds of instruments of war for the battle, one hundred 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 being men of war, who could order the 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.

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.

³⁹They were there with David three days, eating and drinking; for their brothers had made preparation 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.

⁴⁰Moreover those who were near to them, as far as Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, brought bread on donkeys, and on camels, and on mules, and on oxen, food of meal, cakes of figs, and clusters of raisins, and wine, and oil, and cattle, and sheep in abundance: for there was joy in Israel.
