1 Crônicas 12

1 Now these are those who came to David to Ziklag while he was a fugitive from Saul the son of Kish. They were among the mighty men, his helpers in war. 2 They were armed with bows, and could use both the right hand and the left in slinging stones and in shooting arrows from the bow. They were of Saul’s relatives of the tribe of Benjamin. 3 The chief was Ahiezer, then Joash, the sons of Shemaah the Gibeathite; Jeziel and Pelet, the sons of Azmaveth; Beracah; Jehu the Anathothite; 4 Ishmaiah the Gibeonite, a mighty man among the thirty and a leader of the thirty; Jeremiah; Jahaziel; Johanan; Jozabad the Gederathite; 5 Eluzai; Jerimoth; Bealiah; Shemariah; Shephatiah the Haruphite; 6 Elkanah, Isshiah, Azarel, Joezer, and Jashobeam, the Korahites; 7 and Joelah and Zebadiah, the sons of Jeroham of Gedor.

8 Some Gadites joined David in the stronghold in the wilderness, mighty men of valor, men trained for war, who could handle shield and spear; whose faces were like the faces of lions, and they were as swift as the gazelles on the mountains: 9 Ezer the chief, 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 Machbannai the eleventh. 14 These of the sons of Gad were captains of the army. He who was least was equal to one hundred, and the greatest to one thousand. 15 These are those who went over the Jordan in the first month, when it had overflowed all its banks; and they put to flight all who lived in the valleys, both toward the east and toward the west.

16 Some of the children of Benjamin and Judah came to the stronghold to David. 17 David went out to meet them, and answered them, "If you have come peaceably to me to help me, my heart will be united with you; but if you have come to betray me to my adversaries, since there is no wrong in my hands, may the God of our fathers see this and rebuke it." 18 Then the Spirit came on Amasai, who was chief of the thirty, and he said, "We are yours, David, and on your side, you son of Jesse. Peace, peace be to you, and peace be to your helpers; for your God helps you." Then David received them and made them captains of the band.

19 Some of Manasseh also joined David when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle, but they didn’t help them, for the lords of the Philistines sent him away after consultation, saying, "He will desert to his master Saul to the jeopardy of our heads."

20 As he went to Ziklag, some from Manasseh joined him: Adnah, Jozabad, Jediael, Michael, Jozabad, Elihu, and Zillethai, captains of thousands who were of Manasseh. 21 They helped David against the band of raiders, for they were all mighty men of valor and were captains in the army. 22 For from day to day men came to David to help him, until there was a great army, like God’s army.

23 These are the numbers of the heads of those who were armed for war, who came to David to Hebron to turn the kingdom of Saul to him, according to Yahweh’s word. 24 The children of Judah who bore shield and spear were six thousand eight hundred, armed for war. 25 Of the children of Simeon, mighty men of valor for the war: seven thousand one hundred. 26 Of the children of Levi: four thousand six hundred. 27 Jehoiada was the leader of the household of Aaron; and with him were three thousand seven hundred, 28 and Zadok, a young man mighty of valor, and of his father’s house twenty-two captains. 29 Of the children of Benjamin, Saul’s relatives: three thousand, for until then, the greatest part of them had kept their allegiance to Saul’s house. 30 Of the children of Ephraim: twenty thousand eight hundred, mighty men of valor, famous men in their fathers’ houses. 31 Of the half-tribe of Manasseh: eighteen thousand, who were mentioned by name, to come and make David king. 32 Of the children of Issachar, men who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, their heads were two hundred; and all their brothers were at their command. 33 Of Zebulun, such as were able to go out in the army, who could set the battle in array with all kinds of instruments of war: fifty thousand who could command and were not of double heart. 34 Of Naphtali: one thousand captains, and with them with shield and spear thirty-seven thousand. 35 Of the Danites who could set the battle in array: twenty-eight thousand six hundred. 36 Of Asher, such as were able to go out in the army, who could set the battle in array: forty thousand. 37 On the other side of the Jordan, of the Reubenites, the Gadites, and of the half-tribe of Manasseh, with all kinds of instruments of war for the battle: one hundred twenty thousand.

38 All these were men of war who could order the battle array, and came with a perfect heart to Hebron to make David king over all Israel; and all the rest also of Israel were of one heart to make David king. 39 They were there with David three days, eating and drinking; for their brothers had supplied provisions for them. 40 Moreover those who were near to them, as far as Issachar, Zebulun, and Naphtali, brought bread on donkeys, on camels, on mules, and on oxen: supplies of flour, cakes of figs, clusters of raisins, wine, oil, cattle, and sheep in abundance; for there was joy in Israel.

Ngā Rangapū a Rāwiri i te Koraha

1 Ko te hunga tēnei i haere ki a Rāwiri ki Tikiraka, i a ia anō e pūtiki tonu ana i roto i te pā i te wehi o Haora tama a Kihi; nō ngā mārohirohi rātou, hei tuarā mōna ki te whawhai. 2 He hunga kukume kōpere rātou, ko te mauī, ko te matau, ki te kōtaha kōhatu, ki te kōpere i te pere; nō ngā tēina anō o Haora, nō Pineamine.

3 Ko Ahiētere te upoko, nā ko Ioaha, he tama rāua nā Hemaa Kipeati; ko Ietiere, ko Perete he tama nā Ātamawete; ko Peraka, ko Iehu Anatoti, 4 ko Ihimāia Kipeoni, he mārohirohi ia i roto i te toru tekau, he rangatira anō nō te toru tekau; ko Heremaia, ko Tahatiere, ko Iohanana, ko Iotāpara Kererati, 5 ko Erutai, ko Terimoto, ko Pearia, ko Hemaria, ko Hepatia Harupi; 6 ko Erekana, ko Ihīa, ko Atarēre, ko Toētere, ko Iahopeama, he Korahi rātou; 7 ko Toera, ko Tepāria, he tama nā Ierohama o Keroro.

8 Nā, o ngā Kari i maunu ētahi ki a Rāwiri ki te pourewa i te koraha, he tangata mārohirohi, i rauhangatia mō te whawhai, he hunga hāpai i te whakangungu rākau, i te tao. Ko ō rātou mata me te mea he kanohi raiona, rite tonu ō rātou tere ki tō ngā anaterope i runga i ngā maunga: 9 ko Ētere te upoko, ko Opāria te tuarua, ko Eriapa te tuatoru; 10 ko Mihimana te tuawhā, ko Heremaia te tuarima; 11 ko Atai te tuaono, ko Eriere te tuawhitu; 12 ko Iohanana te tuawaru, ko Eretāpara te tuaiwa; 13 ko Heremaia te tuatekau, ko Makapanai te tekau mā tahi.

14 Ko ēnei o ngā tama a Kara he rangatira ope; ko te mea iti rawa hei rangatira mō te rau, ā, ko te mea nui rawa hei rangatira mō te mano. 15 Ko te hunga tēnei i whiti nei i Horano i te marama tuatahi, i te mea kua ngawhā ki runga i ōna pareparenga katoa; ā, whati ana i a rātou te hunga katoa o ngā raorao whaka te rāwhiti, ā, whaka te hauāuru.

16 I haere mai anō ētahi o ngā tama a Pineamine me ētahi o a Hūrā ki te pourewa ki a Rāwiri. 17 Nā, ka puta a Rāwiri ki te whakatau i a rātou, ā, ka oho, ka mea ki a rātou, "Ki te mea he haere pai mai tā koutou ki ahau, he whakauru, ka kotahi tonu ō tātou ngākau. Tēnā ki te tinihanga, he tuku i ahau ki ōku hoariri, i te mea kāhore nei he tutū a ōku ringa, mā te Atua o ō tātou mātua e titiro mai, e riri."

18 Nā, kua tau te wairua ki a Amahai, ko ia nei te rangatira o te toru tekau, ā, ka kī ia,

"Kei a koe mātou, e Rāwiri!

Hei hoa mōu, e te tama a Hehe!

Kia mau, kia mau te rongo ki a koe,

kia mau anō ki ōu whakauru!

Ko tōu Atua hoki hei whakauru mōu."

Nā, kua riro rātou i a Rāwiri, ā, meinga ana rātou e ia hei rangatira rangapū.

19 Nā, o Mānahi hoki i papahoro ētahi ki a Rāwiri, i a ia i haere tahi ai me ngā Pirihitini ki te whawhai ki a Haora. (Otiia, kīhai rātou i uru ki a rātou; i panaia hoki ia e ngā rangatira o ngā Pirihitini, he mea whakaaro anō e rātou, i mea rātou, "Tērā ia e taka atu ki tōna ariki, ki a Haora, ko ō tātou upoko e raru.") 20 I a ia e haere ana ki Tikiraka, ka papahoro mai ki a ia o Mānahi: ko Arana, ko Iotāpara, ko Teriaere, ko Mikaera, ko Iotāpara, ko Erihu, ko Tiritai, he rangatira nō ngā mano o Mānahi. 21 Ko rātou ngā whakauru mō Rāwiri ki te whawhai ki ngā torohē; he mārohirohi hoki, he toa, rātou katoa, he rangatira ope. 22 I haere hoki rātou i taua wā ki a Rāwiri i tēnā rā, i tēnā rā, hei whakauru mōna, nō kua nui te ope, ānō he ope nā te Atua.

Te Ope Taua a Rāwiri kei Heperona

23 Ko te tokomaha tēnei o ngā rangatira, he hunga i rite rawa mō te whawhai, i haere ki a Rāwiri ki Heperona hei whakariro i te kīngitanga o Haora ki a ia, kia rite ai ki tā Ihowā kupu.

24 Ko ngā tama a Hūrā, he hunga hāpai i te whakangungu rākau, i te tao, e ono mano e waru rau, rite rawa i te patu mō te whawhai. 25 O ngā tama a Himiona, he mārohirohi, he toa mō te whawhai, e whitu mano kotahi rau. 26 O ngā tama a Rīwai e whā mano e ono rau. 27 Nā, ko Iehoiara te rangatira o te whare o Ārona, ā, e toru mano e whitu rau ōna hoa; 28 me Hāroko anō, he taitama mārohirohi, he toa, rātou ko te whare o tōna pāpā, e rua tekau mā rua ngā rangatira. 29 Ā, o ngā tama a Pineamine, o ngā tēina o Haora, e toru mano. Ko tō rātou nuinga hoki i mau tonu ki te whare o Haora ā taea noatia taua rā. 30 Nā, o ngā tama a Ēparaima, e rua tekau mano e waru rau, he mārohirohi, he toa, he hunga whai ingoa i roto i ngā whare o ō rātou mātua. 31 Ā, o tētahi tānga o te iwi o Mānahi, kotahi tekau mā waru mano, he mea whakahua ō rātou ingoa, hei haere ki te whakakīngi i a Rāwiri. 32 Nā, o ngā tama a Ihākara, he hunga mōhio ki ngā wā, i mōhio ai ki ngā mahi mā Īharaira; e rua rau ō rātou ariki; kei o ēnei māngai anō he tikanga mō ō rātou tēina. 33 O Hepurona, ko te hunga e āhei te haere ki te whawhai, he mōhio ki te tātai i te riri, e mau ana i ngā mea katoa mō te whawhai, e rima tekau mano. He hunga e taea te whakatika te tātai o te riri, ā, kāhore ō rātou ngākau rua. 34 Ā, o Napatari kotahi mano ngā rangatira, e toru tekau mā whitu mano ō rātou hoa, rite rawa i te whakangungu rākau, i te tao. 35 Nā, o ngā Rāni, he hunga mōhio ki te tatau, e rua tekau mā waru mano e ono rau. 36 O Āhera, he hunga haere ki te whawhai, he mōhio ki te tatau, e whā tekau mano. 37 Nā, o tērā taha o Horano, o ngā Reupeni, o ngā Kari, o tētahi tānga o te hapū o Mānahi, e mau ana i ngā mea whawhai katoa mō te tatau, kotahi rau e rua tekau mano.

38 Ko ēnei, he tangata whawhai katoa, he mōhio ki te tatau, he tapatahi tonu te ngākau i haere ai ki Heperona ki te mea i a Rāwiri hei kīngi mō Īharaira katoa. Nā, ko ērā atu katoa o Īharaira, kotahi tonu te ngākau mō te whakakīngi i a Rāwiri. 39 Ā, i reira rātou i a Rāwiri, e toru ngā rā e kai ana, e inu ana; he mea taka hoki nā ō rātou tuākana, tēina. 40 Nā, ko te hunga tata ki a rātou, tae noa atu ki a Ihākara, ki a Hepurona, ki a Napatari, i kawe taro mai i runga i ngā kāihe, i ngā kāmera, i ngā muera, ā, i ngā kau, he kai, he parāoa, he papa piki, he tautau karepe, he wāina, he hinu, he kau, he hipi, tōna tini; he koa hoki nō Īharaira.
