1 Chronicles 12:23-40

23Day by day men came to David to help him until there was a great army like the army of God.

24These are the numbers of the heads of those armed for war who came to David in Hebron to transfer Saul’s kingdom to him, according to the word of Adonai:

25The sons of Judah that bore shield and spear were 6,800, armed for war;

26from the sons of Simeon, 7,100 brave warriors ready for war;

27from the sons of Levi 4,600;

28Jehoiada the leader of the Aaronides and with him 3,700;

29Zadok, a young mighty man of valor, with 22 commanders from his clan;

30from the sons of Benjamin, Saul’s kinsmen, 3,000 for up to that time the majority of them had kept their allegiance to Saul’s house;

31from the sons of Ephraim 20,800 valliant warriors, famous men in their clan;

32from the half-tribe of Manasseh 18,000 who were designated by name to come and make David king;

33from the sons of Issachar—men who know how to interpret the signs of the times to determine what Israel should do—200 chiefs with all their kinsmen under their command;

34from Zebulun 50,000 warriors prepared for battle, arrayed with all types of weapons of war and ready to give their undivided loyalty;

35from Naphtali 1,000 officers, along with 37,000 with shield and spear;

36from the Danites, 28,600 equipped for battle;

37from Asher 40,000 experienced warriors arrayed for battle;

38and from beyond the Jordan, from the Reubenites, the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh 120,000 armed with every type of weapons of war.

39All these fighting men, prepared for the battle line, came to Hebron with a whole heart to make David king over all Israel. All the rest of Israel were also of one heart to make David king.

40So they were there with David three days, eating and drinking, for their kinsmen had given them provision.
