3. The chief was Ahiezer, then Joash, the sons of Shemaah the Gibeathite; Jeziel and Pelet the sons of Azmaveth; Berachah, and Jehu the Anathothite;

4. Ishmaiah the Gibeonite, a mighty man among the thirty, and over the thirty; Jeremiah, Jahaziel, Johanan, and Jozabad the Gederathite;

5. Eluzai, Jerimoth, Bealiah, Shemariah, and Shephatiah the Haruphite;

6. Elkanah, Jisshiah, Azarel, Joezer, and Jashobeam, the Korahites;

7. and Joelah and Zebadiah the sons of Jeroham of Gedor.

8. Some Gadites joined David at the stronghold in the wilderness, mighty men of valor, men trained for battle, who could handle shield and spear, whose faces were like the faces of lions, and were as swift as gazelles on the mountains:

9. Ezer the first, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third,

10. Mishmannah the fourth, Jeremiah the fifth,

11. Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh,

12. Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth,

13. Jeremiah the tenth, and Machbanai the eleventh.

14. These were from the sons of Gad, captains of the army; the least was over a hundred, and the greatest was over a thousand.

15. These are the ones who crossed the Jordan in the first month, when it had overflowed all its banks; and they put to flight all those in the valleys, to the east and to the west.

16. Then some of the sons of Benjamin and Judah came to David at the stronghold.
