1 Chronicles 12:21-40
21And they helped David in his expeditions; for they were all mighty men of valour, and were captains in the host. 22For day by day there came [menH1368] to DavidH1732 to helpH5826 him, until it wasH1961 a great camp, like the camp of 1God. 23And this is the number of the men equipped for military service, who cameH935 to DavidH1732 to Hebron, to transfer the kingdom of Saul to him, according to the word of Jehovah. 24The children of Judah that bore shield and spear were six thousand eight hundred, equipped for military serviceH6635. 25Of the children of Simeon, mighty men of valour for warH6635, seven thousandH505 one hundredH3967. 26Of the children of Levi four thousandH505 six hundredH3967. 27And Jehoiada the prince of Aaron, and with him were three thousandH505 seven hundredH3967; 28and Zadok, a valiant young man, and his father's house twoH3967 and twenty chiefH5057 men. 29And of the children of Benjamin, the brethren of Saul, three thousand; but hitherto the greater part of them had adhered to the houseH1004 of Saul. 30And of the children of Ephraim twenty thousandH505 eight hundred, mighty men of valour, men of name in their fathers' housesH1004. 31And of the half tribe of Manasseh eighteen thousandH505, who were expressed by nameH8034, to come and make David king. 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. 33Of Zebulun, such as went forth in the host, armed for war with all weapons of war, fifty thousand, keeping rank without double heart. 34And of Naphtali a thousandH505 captains, and with them thirty-seven thousandH505 with shield and spear. 35And of the Danites armed for war twenty-eight thousandH505 six hundred. 36And of Asher such as went forth in the host, to set themselves in battleH4421 array, forty thousandH505. 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 warH4421 for battleH4421, a hundred and twenty thousandH505. 38All of them men of warH4421, keeping rank in battleH4421 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. 39And there they were with DavidH1732 three days, eating and drinking; for their brethren had prepared for them; 40and those too that wereH1961 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 wasH1961 joy in Israel.
