12. Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth,
13. Jeremiah the tenth, Machbannai the eleventh.
14. These [are] of the sons of Gad, heads of the host, one of a hundred [is] the least, and the greatest, of a thousand;
15. these [are] they who have passed over the Jordan in the first month, --and it is full over all its banks--and cause all [they of] the valley to flee to the east and to the west.
16. And there come of the sons of Benjamin and Judah unto the stronghold to David,
17. and David goeth out before them, and answereth and saith to them, `If for peace ye have come in unto me, to help me, I have a heart to unite with you; and if to betray me to mine adversaries--without violence in my hands--the God of our fathers doth see and reprove.'
18. And the Spirit hath clothed Amasai, head of the captains: `To thee, O David, and with thee, O son of Jesse--peace! peace to thee, and peace to thy helper, for thy God hath helped thee;' and David receiveth them, and putteth them among the heads of the troop.
19. And of Manasseh there have fallen unto David in his coming with the Philistines against Israel to battle--and they helped them not, for by counsel the princes of the Philistines sent him away, saying, `With our heads he doth fall unto his master Saul.' --
20. In his going unto Ziglag there have fallen unto him of Manasseh, Adnah, and Jozabad, and Jediael, and Michael, and Jozabad, and Elihu, and Zillthai, heads of the thousands that [are] of Manasseh;
21. and they have helped with David over the troop, for mighty of valour [are] all of them, and they are captains in the host,
22. for at that time, day by day, they come in unto David to help him, till it is a great camp, like a camp of God.
