1 Chronicles 16:1-43 David's First Psalm to the Lord God for All His Wondrous Works

 

David's First Psalm to the Lord God for All His Wondrous Works

1 Chronicles 16:1-43      1 Chronicles in [Smaller Chunks]

So, they brought the Ark of God & [put] it in the midst of the tent David had pitched for it. They offered burnt sacrifices & peace offerings before [the Lord] God.

At the end of the [offerings & sacrifices,] David blessed the people in the Name of the Lord [God.] [David gave] to everyone of Israel, both [men & women] a loaf of bread, a good [sized] piece of [meat & a jug] of wine.

[David] appointed [some of the] Levites to minister before the Ark of the Lord & to [write down what needed to be recorded] & to thank & praise the Lord God of Israel. Asaph, the chief [music director] & next to him, Zechariah, Jeiel, [a.k.a. Jaaziel,] Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed Edom.

And Jeiel [& the others were to play the lyres &] harps; but Asaph [was to] sound [the] cymbals. Also, Benaiah & Jahaziel, the priests [played] trumpets continually [in front of] the Ark of the Covenant of God.

Then, on that day, David delivered this psalm [song] first into the hand of Asaph & his [relatives] to thank the Lord. Give thanks to the Lord & call upon His Name & make known [what God has done] among the people.

Sing to Him & sing psalms to Him & you [should] talk of all His wondrous works [miracles.] Glory in His Holy Name & let the [hearts of those] rejoice [who] seek the Lord. Seek the Lord & His strength. Seek His face continually.

Remember His marvelous [miracles] & His wonders He has done & the judgments [from] His mouth. O you, [descendants] of Israel, His servant, you children of Jacob, [a.k.a. Israel,] His chosen ones. He is the Lord, our God. His judgments are in all the earth.

Always [remember] His covenant [contract,] the Word [that] He commanded to 1,000 generations. Even the covenant [contract that] He made with Abraham & [the Lord God's] oath [with] Isaac.

[The Lord has established these] to Jacob for a law & to Israel for an everlasting covenant saying, To you, I will give the land of Canaan, the [allotment] of your inheritance.

When you were [just a] few, even a few [in number] & strangers in it. And when [the Israelites wandered] from nation to nation, from 1 kingdom to another people;

[the Lord God didn't allow anyone to oppress or] to do wrong [against] them. [God warned] kings for their sakes, saying, [Don't] touch My anointed, [or] harm My prophets.

Sing to the Lord all the earth & show His Salvation [to others everyday.] Declare [the Lord God's] glory among the heathen & His marvelous [miracles] among all nations.

For great is the Lord [God] & greatly to be praised. He is also to be feared [respected] above all gods. For all the gods of the people are idols, but the Lord made the heavens.

[Genesis 1:1-3 In the beginning God created the heaven & the earth. And the earth was without form & void. And darkness was upon the [surface] of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the [surface] of the waters. And God said, Let there be light & there was light.]

Glory & honor are in His presence & strength & gladness are in His place. Give to the Lord, you [families] of the people. Give to the Lord glory & strength. Give to the Lord, the glory due to His [Holy] Name.

Bring an offering & come before Him. Worship the Lord in the [splendor] of [His] Holiness. [Tremble] before [the Lord God,] all the earth. The world shall be stable & not moved.

Let the heavens be glad & the earth rejoice & let men say among the nations, The Lord [God rules.] Let the sea roar & [its] fulness. Let the fields rejoice & all that is [in them.]

Then, the trees of the [woods] shall sing out at the presence of the Lord, because He comes to judge the earth. O give thanks to the Lord; for He is good & His mercy endures forever.

And you [shall] say, Save us, O God of our Salvation. And gather us together & deliver us from the heathen, [so] we may give thanks to Your Holy Name & [triumph] in Your praise. Blessed be the Lord God of Israel forever & ever.

And all the people said, Amen & praised the Lord. So, [in leaving from the front of] the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord, [David] left Asaph & [his relatives] to minister before the Ark [of the Covenant of the Lord] continually, as [each] day's work required.

[David also assigned jobs to] Obed Edom, [Jeduthun's] son & 68 [relatives.] Obed Edom & Hosah [were] to be [gate keepers.] And Zadok, the priest & his [relatives who were] priests, [to be in front of] the tabernacle of the Lord in the high place that was at Gibeon.

[They were to present:] burnt offerings to the Lord upon the altar [for] the burnt [offerings] continually, morning & evening & to do according to all that is written in the [Lord's] Law, [that] He commanded [to] Israel.

[Along] with them, Heman & Jeduthun & the rest [who] were chosen by name, [were] to give thanks to the Lord, because His mercy endures forever. And with them, Heman & Jeduthun [were in charge of the:] trumpets, cymbals & musical instruments [for Lord] God.

And [Jeduthun's] sons were [gate keepers.] And all the people [left to return] to [their own] house & David returned to bless his [household.]

1 Chronicles 15:1-29 Bringing the Ark of God to the City of David

 

Bringing the Ark of God to the City of David

1 Chronicles 15:1-29      1 Chronicles in [Smaller Chunks]

David made [himself] houses in the city of David & prepared a place for the Ark of God & pitched a tent for it. Then, David said, [No one should] carry the Ark of God, [except] the Levites.

For the Lord has chosen them to carry the Ark of God & to minister to Him forever. And David gathered all Israel together to Jerusalem, to bring the Ark of the Lord [into its] place, which he had prepared for it.

And David assembled the [descendants] of Aaron & the Levites. [From Kohath's descendants:] Uriel, the chief [leader] & 120 [of] his [relatives.] [From Merari’s descendants:] Asaiah, the chief [leader] & 120 [of] his [relatves.] [From  the descendants of Gershom, a.k.a. Gershon:] Joel, the chief [leader] & 130 [relatives.]

[From Elizaphan's descendants;] Shemaiah, the chief [leader] & 200 [relatives.] [From Hebron's descendants;] Eliel, the chief [leader] & 80 [relatives.] [From [Uzziel's descendants;] Amminadab, the chief [leader] & 112 [relatives.]

And David called for Zadok & Abiathar, the priests, [& called] for the Levites: Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel & Amminadab & said to them, You are the chief [leaders] of the [Levite’s forefathers.]

Sanctify yourselves, both you & your [relatives, so] you may bring up the Ark of the Lord God of Israel [into] the place that I have prepared for it. [Since,] you didn't [do] it the 1st [time] & the Lord, our God [broke out in anger] upon us, [because we didn't seek] Him [about how to do it properly.]

So, the priests & Levites sanctified themselves to bring up the Ark of the Lord God of Israel. The children [people] of the Levites [carried] the Ark of God upon their shoulders with the [poles upon them, like] Moses commanded according to the Word of the Lord.

And David [spoke] to the chief [leaders] of the Levites to appoint their [relatives] to be the singers with the [musicians] of instruments, [lyres,] harps & cymbals [& singing,] by lifting up [their voices] with joy [loudly.]

So, the Levites appointed Heman, [Joel's] sons & [from] his [relatives:] Asaph, son of Berechiah, [a.k.a. Berekiah] & [from their relatives] of the sons of Merari, Ethan, [Kushaiah's] son.

And with them, their [relatives next in rank:] Zechariah, Ben, Jaaziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Uni, [a.k.a. Unni,] Eliab, Benaiah, Maaseiah, Mattithiah, Elipheleh, [a.k.a. Eliphelehu,] Mikneiah, Obed Edom & Jeiel, the [gate keepers.]

So, the singers: Heman, Asaph & Ethan were appointed to [play] the brass cymbals. And Zechariah, Aziel, [a.k.a. Jaaziel,] Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, [a.ka. Uni,] Eliab, Maaseiah, [a.k.a. Manasseh,] Benaiah [were to play a song upon] Alamoth with [lyres.]

And Mattithiah, Elipheleh, [a.k.a. Eliphelehu,] Mikneiah, Obed Edom, Jeiel & Azaziah, [played] with harps [while the men excel by singing the lowest notes possible.] And Chenaniah, [a.k.a. Kenaniah, the Levite music director,] he instructed about [singing,] because he was skilful.

And Berechiah, [a.k.a. Berekiah] & Elkanah, [a.k.a. Elkanan,] were [the] door keepers for the Ark. and Shebaniah, Jehoshaphat, [a.k.a. Joshaphat,] Nethaneel, [a.k.a. Nethanel,] Amasai, Zechariah, Benaiah & Eliezer, the priests, [were to blow] the trumpets [in front of] the Ark of God.

And Obed Edom & Jehiah were [also the] door keepers for the Ark. So, David & the elders of Israel, the captains over 1,000's, went to bring up the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord out of the house of Obed Edom with joy.

And it [happened,] when God helped the Levites [who carried] the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord, they offered 7 bulls & 7 rams.

And David was clothed with a robe of fine linen & [also] all the Levites [who carried] the Ark, the singers [& musicians] & Chenaniah, [a.k.a. Kenaniah,] the [music director, in charge of the choir of] singers.

David also [wore] a linen ephod. All Israel brought up the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord [like this] with shouting & [sounds] of [cornets,] trumpets, cymbals, [lyres] & harps [making music.]

And it [happened,] as the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord came to the city of David, that Michal, [Saul's] daughter, [looked] out a window & saw king David dancing & [celebrating] & she despised him in her heart.

1 Chronicles 14:1-17 The Children David Fathered in Israel

 

The Children David Fathered in Israel

1 Chronicles 14:1-17     1 Chronicles in [Smaller Chunks]

Now, Hiram, [a.k.a. Huram, Tyre's] king, sent messengers to David [with] cedar timber, masons & carpenters to build David a [palace.] David [realized] the Lord had [established] him [as] king over Israel, for his kingdom was [highly exalted,] because of His people Israel.

David took more wives [in] Jerusalem & David [fathered] more sons & daughters. These are the names of his children, [that] he had in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon, Ibhar, Elishua, El Palet, [a.k.a. Elpelet,]

And Nogah, Nepheg, Japhia, Elishama, Beeliada [a.k.a. Beehada] & Eliphalet, [a.k.a. Eliphelet.] And when the Philistines heard David was anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up to [look for] David.

David heard [about] it & went out against them. And the Philistines came & spread themselves [out & raided] in the Valley of Rephaim. David [inquired] of God, [asking,] Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will You deliver them into [my] hand?

And the Lord said to him, Go up: for I will deliver them into your hand. So, the [Philistines] came up to Baal Perazim & David [defeated] them there. Then, David said, God has broken [out] upon [my] enemies by my hand, like the waters [break through.]

Therefore, the place was called Baal Perazim. And when the [Philistines] had left their gods there, David gave a command & they were burned with fire. And [still] again, the Philistines spread themselves [around] in the valley.

Therefore, David [inquired] again of God. And God said to [David, Don't] go up after them. Turn away from them & come upon them [in front of ] the mulberry trees.

It shall be when you hear a sound going [through] the tops of the mulberry trees, then you shall go out to battle: for God has gone [out] before you to [strike] the [army] of the Philistines.

Therefore, David did as God commanded him. They [defeated] the [Philistine army] from Gibeon, even to Gazer. And [David's] fame went out into all the lands. And the Lord brought the fear [respect] of [David] upon all nations.

1 Chronicles 13:1-14 The Ark of God Stays with Obed Edom for 3 Months

 

The Ark of God Stays with Obed Edom for 3 Months

1 Chronicles 13:1-14      1 Chronicles in [Smaller Chunks]

David consulted the captains of 1,000's & 100's & with every leader. And David said to all the congregation of Israel, If it [seems] good to you & if [it's the will] of the Lord our God, let us ask [those] to gather to us & send [word throughout our territories, to our relatives & all who] are left in the land of Israel.

And with them, also [go] to the priests & Levites [who] are in their cities & suburbs, [so] they may gather themselves to us. And let us bring [back to us] again the Ark of our God: for we [haven't inquired] of it, [during] the days Saul [ruled.]

And all the congregation [agreed:] for [this] was right in the eyes of all the people. So, David gathered all Israel together, from [the] Sihor [River] of Egypt, to the [entrance] of Hemath, to bring [back] the Ark of God from Kirjath Jearim [a.k.a. Kiriath Jearim.]

And David & all Israel went up to Baalah, [also called] Kirjath Jearim, which belonged to Judah. [In order to] bring [up from there] the Ark of the Lord God, [Who] dwells between the cherubims, [where the Lord's Holy] Name [is called upon.]

[Exodus 25:22 And there I will meet with you & I will [talk] with you, [about] all [the] things I will give you in commandment to the children [people] of Israel, from above the mercy seat, from between the 2 cherubims, which are upon the Ark of the Testimony.]

And they carried the Ark of God in a new cart out of the house of Abinadab. Uzza, [a.k.a. Uzzah] & Ahio [drove] the card. David & all Israel played harps, [lyres, tambourines,] cymbals & trumpets [in front of] God with all their might & singing.

And when they came to the threshing floor of Chidon, [a.k.a. Kidron,] Uzza [1 of the drivers] put [out] his hand to hold the Ark; [when] the oxen stumbled. And the [Lord's] anger [grew] against Uzza & He [struck down Uzza,] because he put his hand [on] the Ark. And he died there before God.

And David was displeased, because the Lord had [broken out against] Uzza. [For this reason,] that place is called Perez Uzza to this day. And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring the Ark of God home to me?

So, David [didn't bring] the Ark home to the city of David to himself, but carried it aside to the house of Obed Edom, the Gittite. And the Ark of God remained with the family of Obed Edom [at] his house [for] 3 months. And the Lord blessed the house of Obed Edom & all that he had.

1 Chronicles 12:1-40 The Mighty Men of War Who Came to Help David Become King

 

The Mighty Men of War Who Came to Help David Become King

1 Chronicles 12:1-40     1 Chronicles in [Smaller Chunks]

Now, these are [the men who] came to David to Ziklag, while [David] kept himself [hidden,] because of [king] Saul, [Kish's] son. They were among the mighty men of war [& assisted David with] the war.

They were armed with bows & arrows [& they] could [hurl] stones with both [their] right & left hands & even [some] of Saul's [relatives] of Benjamin.

The chief [leader] was Ahiezer; then Joash, the sons of Shemaah, [a.k.a. Shemaiah & Hasmaah] the Gibeathite; Jeziel & Pelet, [Azmaveth's] sons; Berachah, [a.k.a. Berakah] & Jehu, the Antothite, [a.k.a. Anathothite] & Ishmaiah, the Gibeonite, a mighty [warrior] among the 30, [who was the leader] over the 30.

And Jeremiah, Jahaziel, Johanan & Josabad, the Gederathite. Eluzai; Jerimoth; Bealiah; Shemariah & Shephatiah, the Haruphite. Elkanah; Jesiah, [a.k.a. Ishiah;] Azareel, [a.k.a. Azrael;] Joezer & Jashobeam, the Korhites, [a.k.a. Korathites.]

And Joelah & Zebadiah, [Jeroham's] sons [from] Gedor. [These] are the [mighty] men of war, of the Gadites [who joined] David in the [strong safe place of refuge in] the wilderness.

[They were] fit for the battle & [they] could handle [a] shield & [armor, with] faces like lions & were as swift as [gazelles] upon the mountains: Ezer, the 1st [in command;] Obadiah, 2nd; Eliab, 3rd; Mishmannah, 4th; Jeremiah, 5th; Attai, 6th;

Eliel, 7th; Johanan, 8th; Elzabad, 9th; Jeremiah, 10th; Machbanai, [a.k.a. Makbannai] 11th. These were [descendants] of [Gad's] sons & [were] captains of the [army.]

One of the least was over 100 [men] & the greatest [was] over 1,000. These are [those who] went over [the] Jordan [River] in the 1st month, when it had overflown all [its] banks & all of them in the valleys, both toward the east & the west [fled.]

[Some of] the children [people] of Benjamin & Judah came to David to the [strong hold.] And David went out to meet them & said to them, If you come [peacefully] to me to help me, [then my] heart shall [join with] you.

But if you come to betray me to [my] enemies, seeing [my hands are free from violence, may] the God of our [forefathers] look [upon it & judge you.] Then the Spirit came upon: Amasai, chief [leader] of [30] captains & he said, We are [yours,] David & [we are] on your side, you son of Jesse.

Peace, peace be to you & peace to your helpers; for your God helps you. Then, David received them & made them captains of [his group.] Some of [the tribe of] Manasseh [joined with] David, when he [went] with the Philistines [to fight] against Saul.

But [David & his men didn't] help [the Philistines, [because the Philistine rulers] sent [David away] after [consulting,] saying, Our [own] heads will [be at risk, if David returns to his previous] master, Saul.

As [David returned] to Ziklag, [these were the men of Manasseh who defected] to him: Adnah; Jozabad; Jediael; Michael; Jozabad; Elihu; Zilthai, [a.k.a. Zillethai;] captains of 1,000's that were of Manasseh.

And they helped David against the band of [raiders:] for they were all mighty men & were captains in the [army.] At that time, [men] came to David day by day to help him, until it was a [large army,] like the [army of God.]

And these are the numbers of the [men, who] were armed [for] war & came to David [in] Hebron, to turn the kingdom of Saul [over to David,] according to the Word of the Lord [God.]

The children [people] of Judah [who carried] shield & [spears] were 6,800 [equipped for] war. [From] the children [people] of Simeon [were:] 7,100 mighty men of valor for the war.

[From] the children [people] of Levi [were:] 4,600 & Jehoiada was the leader of the Aaronites & with him [were:] 3,700. [Also,] Zadok, a mighty, young man of valor [with] 22 captains [leaders] of his father's [family.]

And [from] the children [people] of Benjamin, the [relatives] of Saul [were:] 3,000. [Until then,] the [largest] part of them had [remained loyal to] the house of Saul. And the children [people] of Ephraim [were:] 20,800 mighty men of valor, famous throughout their [father's family.]

[From] the 1/2 [of the] tribe of Manasseh [were listed] 18,000 by name, [who came] to make David king. [From] the children [people] of Issachar, [who] were [wise] men of understanding & [knew] what Israel [should] do;

[There] were 200 heads [leaders] of them & all their [relatives] were at their [command.] [From] Zebulun, [there were:] 50,000, [who] went into battle, [experts] & prepared for war with all [weapons,] who could keep [in battle formation & were loyal to David.]

[From] the [people] of Naphtali [were] 1,000 captains & 37,000 [of] them with [shields & spears.] And 28,600 Danites [were experts] in war. [From] Asher [were] 40,000, [who] went [into] battle & [were experts] in war.

On the other side [of the] Jordan [River,] the Reubenites, Gadites & ½ [of the] tribe of Manasseh [were:] 120,000 [who went to battle & were experts with all types of weapons] of war.

All these men of war could keep [in battle formation] & came with a [loyal] heart to Hebron, to make David king over all Israel. Also, the rest of Israel were of 1 heart to make David king.

They were with David [for] 3 days eating & drinking; [what] their brethren prepared for them. [Also, those who] were [near] them, even to Issachar, Zebulun & Naphtali,

brought bread, meat, [flour,] cakes of figs, bunches of raisins, wine & oil on [donkey's] camels, mules & oxen, [as well as an abundance of] oxen & sheep. For there was joy in Israel.

1 Chronicles 11:1-47 When 3 Mighty Men Risked Their Lives to Bring Water to David

 

When 3 Mighty Men Risked Their Lives to Bring Water to David

1 Chronicles 11:1-47    1 Chronicles in [Smaller Chunks]

All Israel gathered themselves to David in Hebron, saying, [Look,] we are your [own] flesh & [blood.] In past [times,] even when Saul was king, you led [us] out [to war & brought] Israel [back in.]

And the Lord, your God, said to you, You shall feed My people, Israel & you shall be ruler over My people Israel. Therefore, all the elders of Israel came to Hebron to the king.

And David made a covenant [contract] with them in Hebron before the Lord [God] & they anointed David king over Israel, according to the Word of the Lord, [through] Samuel. [1 Samuel 3:20 And all Israel from Dan even to Beer Sheba, knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the Lord.]

And David & all Israel went to Jerusalem, which is Jebus; where the Jebusites were the [residents] of the land. The [residents] of Jebus said to David, You shall not come here.

[But] David [captured] the castle of Zion, which is the city of David. And David [had] said, [Whoever attacks] the Jebusites 1st, shall be chief & captain. So, Joab, [Jeruiah's] son, went 1st & [became the] chief.

And David dwelt in the castle, [that's why] they called it the city of David. And [David] built the city [up all around,] even from Milo & [all around it.] And Joab repaired the rest of the city. So, David [grew] greater & greater: for the Lord of Hosts was with [David.]

These also are the chief [leaders] of the mighty men, whom David had, who strengthened themselves with [David] in his kingdom & with all Israel, to make [David] king, according to the Word of the Lord, concerning Israel.

[These are David's] mighty men: Jashobeam, a Hachmonite, chief [leader] of the captains. He lifted his spear against 300, [who were killed] by him at 1 time. After him, was Eleazar, [Dodo's] son, the Ahohite, who was 1 of the 3 [mighty men.]

He was with David at Pas Dammim & the Philistines were gathered together to battle there, where a barely [plot was] & the [Israelites] fled before the Philistines. They [stationed] themselves in the midst of that [plot] & delivered it & [killed] the Philistines & the Lord saved them [with] a [large] deliverance.

Now, 3 of the 30 captains went down to David, to the rock [near] the Cave of Adullam. The Philistines [camped] in the Valley of Rephaim, [a.k.a. giants.] And David then was in the [safe place of refuge] & the Philistine garrison was [also] at Bethlehem then.

David longed [for water] & said, Oh, [if someone] would give me a drink of water [from] the Well of Bethlehem at the gate! The 3 [captains broke] through [the Philistine army] & drew water out of the Well of Bethlehem by the gate & brought it to David.

But David wouldn't drink it & poured it out to the Lord & said, My God [forbids] it [of] me, that I shall do this thing. Shall I drink the blood of these men [who] have put their lives in jeopardy? For [they risked] their lives [to bring] it. Therefore, [David] wouldn't drink it.

These 3 mightiest men did these things. And Abishai, [Joab's] brother, was chief of the 3: for lifting up his spear against 300 & he [killed] them. His name [was famous] among the 3. Of the 3, he was more honorable than the 2; for he was their captain.

[But] he [didn't attain the fame of] the 1st 3. Benaiah, [Jehoiada's] son; [who was] the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done many valiant acts. He [killed] 2 lion-like men of Moab.

He also went down & [killed] a lion in a pit [on] a snowy day. And he [also killed] a [very tall] Egyptian, 5 cubits [tall.] And In the Egyptian's hand was a spear like a weaver's beam. He went down to [the giant] with [only] a staff & plucked the spear out of the Egyptian's hand & [killed] him with his own spear.

Benaiah, [Jehoiada's] son, did these things & had the [famous] name among the 3 [mighty men.] [See,] he was [honored] among the 30, [but he didn't attain the fame of the] 1st 3. David [put him in charge] over his [guards.]

Also, the valiant men of the armies were: Asahel, [Joab's] brother; Elhanan, [Dodo's] son, of Bethlehem; Shammoth, the Harorite; Helez, the Pelonite; Ira, [Ikkesh'] son, the Tekoite; Abiezer, the Antothite; Sibbecai, [a.k.a. Sibbekai,] the Hushathite; Ilai, the Ahohite; Maharai, the Netophathite;

Heled, [Baanah's] son, the Netophathite; Ithai, [Ribai's] son, [from] Gibeah, [who] pertained to the children [people] of Benjamin [with:] Benaiah, the Pirathonite; Hurai, [from] the Brooks of Gaash; Abiel, the Arbathite;

Azmaveth, the Baharumite; Eliahba, the Shaalbonite. The sons of Hashem, the Gizonite; Jonathan, the son of Shage, [a.k.a. Shagee,] the Hararite; Ahiam, the son of Sacar, [a.k.a. Sakar & Sachar,] the Hararite; Eliphal, [Ur's] son, [fom] Ur;

Hepher, the Mecherathite, [a.k.a. Mekerathite;] Ahijah, the Pelonite; Hezro, the Carmelite; Naarai, [a.k.a. Naari, Ezbai's] son; Joel, [Nathan's] brother; Mibhar, son of Haggeri, [a.k.a. Hagri;] Zelek, the Ammonite;

Naharai, the Berothite, [a.k.a. Beerothite] & [Joab's] armor bearer, [who was] the son of Zeruiah & Ira, the Ithrite; Gareb, the Ithrite; Urriah, [a.k.a. Uriah,] the Hittite; Zabad, [Ahlai's] son;

Adina, [Shiza's] son, the Reubenite & captain of the Reubenites & 30 [men] with him. Hanan [the] son of Maachah, [a.k.a. Maakah & Maacah & Makkah;] Joshaphat, [a.k.a. Jehoshaphat,] the Mithnite;

Uzzia, the Ashterathite; Shama & Jehiel, [a.k.a. Jeiel,] the sons of Hotham, the Aroerite; Jediael, [Shimri's] son & his brother, Joha, the Tizite, Eliel, the Mahavite. And Jeribai & Joshaviah, the sons of Elnaam & Ithmah, the Moabite; Eliel, Obed & Jasiel, [a.k.a. Jaasiel,] the Mesobaite.
