1 Chronicles 12:1-13 ▼

1 Now these are they that came to David to Ziklag, while he was yet shut up because of Saul the son of Kish; and 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 brethren of Benjamin.

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

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

5 Eluzai, and Jerimoth, and Bealiah, and Shemariah, and Shephatiah the Hariphite;

6 Elkanah, and Isshiah, and Azarel, and Joezer, and Jashobeam, the Korahites;

7 and Joelah, and Zebadiah, the sons of Jeroham of the troop.

8 And of the Gadites there separated themselves unto David to the stronghold in the wilderness, mighty men of valour, men trained for war, that could handle shield and spear; whose faces were like the faces of lions, and they were as swift as the roes upon the mountains;

9 Ezer the chief, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third;

10 Mashmannah the fourth, Jeremiah the fifth;

11 Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh;

12 Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth;

13 Jeremiah the tenth, Machbannai the eleventh.
