1 Chronicles 12:8-15

8From the Gadites there went over to David at the stronghold in the wilderness mighty and experienced warriors, expert with shield and spear, whose faces were like the faces of lions and who were swift as gazelles upon the mountains:

9Ezer the chief, Obadiah second, Eliab third,

10Mishmannah fourth, Jeremiah fifth,

11Attai sixth, Eliel seventh,

12Johanan eighth, Elzabad ninth,

13Jeremiah tenth, Machbannai eleventh.

14These Gadites were officers of the army; the least was a match for a hundred men and the greatest 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.
