1 Chronicles 12:8-18

8From the Gadites valiant mighty men went over to David at the stronghold in the wilderness, men trained for war who could handle a large shield and spear, whose faces were like the faces of lions, and 1they were as swift as the gazelles on the mountains. 9Ezer was the first, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third, 10Mishmannah the fourth, Jeremiah the fifth, 11Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh, 12Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth, 13Jeremiah the tenth, and Machbannai, the eleventh. 14These men from the sons of Gad were 2captains of the army; 3the one who was least was equal to a hundred, and the greatest, to a thousand. 154These are the ones who crossed the Jordan in the first month, when it was overflowing all its banks, and they put to flight all those in the valleys, to the east and to the west.

16Then some of the sons of Benjamin and Judah came to the stronghold to David. 17David went out to meet them, and said to them, “If you come peacefully to help me, my heart shall be united with you; but if to betray me to my enemies, since there is no 5wrong in my hands, may the God of our fathers look on it and decide.” 18Then 6the Spirit 7covered 8Amasai like clothing, the chief of the thirty; and he said, “We are yours, David, And are with you, son of Jesse! 9Peace, peace to you, And peace to him who helps you; Indeed, your God helps you!” Then David received them and made them 10captains of the troops.
