The First Book of Chronicles
11. fejezet
1. vers
Then all Israel gathered themselves to David to Hebron, saying, “Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.
2. vers
In times past, even when Saul was king, it was you who led out and brought in Israel. Yahweh your God said to you, ‘You shall be shepherd of my people Israel, and you shall be prince over my people Israel.’”
3. vers
So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before Yahweh. They anointed David king over Israel, according to Yahweh’s word by Samuel.
4. vers
David and all Israel went to Jerusalem (also called Jebus); and the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, were there.
5. vers
The inhabitants of Jebus said to David, “You will not come in here!” Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion. The same is David’s city.
6. vers
David had said, “Whoever strikes the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain.” Joab the son of Zeruiah went up first, and was made chief.
7. vers
David lived in the stronghold; therefore they called it David’s city.
8. vers
He built the city all around, from Millo even around; and Joab repaired the rest of the city.
9. vers
David grew greater and greater, for Yahweh of Armies was with him.
10. vers
Now these are the chief of the mighty men whom David had, who showed themselves strong with him in his kingdom, together with all Israel, to make him king, according to Yahweh’s word concerning Israel.
11. vers
This is the number of the mighty men whom David had: Jashobeam, the son of a Hachmonite, the chief of the thirty; he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them at one time.
12. vers
After him was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, who was one of the three mighty men.
13. vers
He was with David at Pasdammim, and there the Philistines were gathered together to battle, where there was a plot of ground full of barley; and the people fled from before the Philistines.
14. vers
They stood in the middle of the plot, defended it, and killed the Philistines; and Yahweh saved them by a great victory.
15. vers
Three of the thirty chief men went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam; and the army of the Philistines were encamped in the valley of Rephaim.
16. vers
David was then in the stronghold, and the garrison of the Philistines was in Bethlehem at that time.
17. vers
David longed, and said, “Oh, that someone would give me water to drink from the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!”
18. vers
The three broke through the army of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem that was by the gate, took it, and brought it to David; but David would not drink any of it, but poured it out to Yahweh,
19. vers
and said, “My God forbid me, that I should do this! Shall I drink the blood of these men who have put their lives in jeopardy?” For they risked their lives to bring it. Therefore he would not drink it. The three mighty men did these things.
20. vers
Abishai, the brother of Joab, was chief of the three; for he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them, and had a name among the three.
21. vers
Of the three, he was more honorable than the two, and was made their captain; however he wasn’t included in the three.
22. vers
Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done mighty deeds, killed the two sons of Ariel of Moab. He also went down and killed a lion in the middle of a pit on a snowy day.
23. vers
He killed an Egyptian, a man of great stature, five cubits high. In the Egyptian’s hand was a spear like a weaver’s beam; and he went down to him with a staff, plucked the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and killed him with his own spear.
24. vers
Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did these things and had a name among the three mighty men.
25. vers
Behold, he was more honorable than the thirty, but he didn’t attain to the three; and David set him over his guard.
