1 Chronicles 12:8-15

8Some Gadites defected to David at his stronghold in the desert. They were valiant warriors, trained for battle, expert with shield and spear. Their faces were like the faces of lions, and they were as swift as gazelles on the mountains.

9Ezer was the chief, Obadiah second, Eliab third,

10Mishmannah fourth, Jeremiah fifth,

11Attai sixth, Eliel seventh,

12Johanan eighth, Elzabad ninth,

13Jeremiah tenth, and Machbannai eleventh.

14These Gadites were army commanders; the least of them was a match for a hundred, and the greatest of them for a thousand.

15These are the men who crossed the Jordan in the first month when it was overflowing all its banks, and put to flight all those in the valleys to the east and to the west.
