1 Chronicles 12:19

Compare all

17 And David went out¹ to meet them, and answered and said to them, “If you have come peaceably to me to help me, my heart will be united with you; but if to betray me to my enemies, since there is no² wrong in my hands, may the God of our fathers look and bring judgment.”

18 Then the Spirit¹ came upon ^aAmasai, chief of the captains, and he said:
“We are yours, O David;
We are on your side, O son of Jesse!
Peace, peace to you,
And peace to your helpers!
For your God helps you.” So David received them, and made them captains of the troop.

19 And some from Manasseh defected to David ^awhen he was going with the Philistines to battle against Saul; but they did not help them, for the lords of the Philistines sent him away by agreement, saying, ^b“He may defect to his master Saul and endanger our heads.”

20 When he went to Ziklag, those of Manasseh who defected to him were Adnah, Jozabad, Jediael, Michael, Jozabad, Elihu, and Zillethai, captains of the thousands who were from Manasseh.

21 And they helped David against ^athe bands of raiders, for they were all mighty men of valor, and they were captains in the army.

22 For at that time they came to David day by day to help him, until it was a great army, ^alike the army of God.
