Peace, peace to you, and peace to your helpers, for your God helps you. So David received them, and made them captains of the band. 19 And some from Manasseh defected to David when he went with the Philistines to battle against Saul; but they did not help them, for the lords of the Philistines, upon advisement, sent him away, saying, He may defect 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 Zilthai, captains of thousands from Manasseh. 21 And they helped David against the band of raiders, for they were all mighty men of valor, and they were captains in the army. 22 For day by day men came to David to help him, until it was a great army, like the army of God. 23 Now these are the numbers of the divisions that were ready for war, and came to David at Hebron to turn the kingdom of Saul to him, according to the word of the LORD. 24 The sons of Judah bearing shield and spear were six thousand and eight hundred armed for war. 25 Of the sons of Simeon, mighty men of valor for war, seven thousand and one hundred. 26 Of the sons of Levi four thousand and six hundred. 27 Jehoiada was the leader of the Aaronites, and with him were three thousand and seven hundred; 28 And Zadok, a young man mighty of valor, and his father's house, twenty-two captains. 29 Of the sons of Benjamin, the relatives of Saul, three thousand; for until that time, the most of them had maintained their allegiance to the house of Saul. 30 Of the sons of Ephraim twenty thousand and eight hundred, mighty men of valor, famous throughout their father's house. 31 Of the half-tribe of Manasseh eighteen thousand, who were recognized by name to come and make David king. 32 Of the sons of Issachar, men who understood the times, to know what Israel ought to do, their chiefs were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their commandment. 33 Of Zebulun, those who went out to battle, skilled in war with all kinds of weapons, fifty thousand who could keep ranks; they were not of double heart. 34 Of Naphtali a thousand captains, and with them thirty-seven thousand with shield and spear. 35 Of the Danites, those skilled in war, twenty-eight thousand and six hundred. 36 Of Asher, those who went out to battle, skilled in war, forty thousand. 37 On the other side of the Jordan, of the Reubenites and the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh, with all types of weapons of war for battle, one hundred and twenty thousand. 38 All these men of war, who could keep ranks, came with a perfect heart to Hebron to make David king over all Israel; and all the rest of Israel were of one heart to make David king. 39 They were there with David for three days, eating and drinking, for their brethren had prepared for them. 40 Moreover, those who were near them, from as far as Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, brought food on donkeys, camels, mules, and oxen; provisions of flour, cakes of figs, clusters of raisins, wine and oil, oxen and sheep in abundance, for there was joy in Israel.
• 2 Chr 11:12-17 : 12 In every city he put shields and spears, and made them exceedingly strong, having Judah and Benjamin on his side. 13 And the priests and the Levites that were in all Israel resorted to him from all their territories. 14 For the Levites left their suburbs and possessions, and came to Judah and Jerusalem because Jeroboam and his sons had cast them out from executing the priest's office to the LORD. 15 And he ordained priests for the high places, for the devils, and for the calves which he made. 16 After them, out of all the tribes of Israel, those who set their hearts to seek the LORD God of Israel came to Jerusalem to sacrifice to the LORD God of their fathers. 17 So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah and made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong for three years, because three years they walked in the way of David and Solomon.
