The numbers of those armed for war who came to David to Hebron to turn the kingdom of Saul to him

헤브론에 이르러 사울의 나라를 다윗에게 돌리고자 한 군대 장관들의 수효

1 Chronicles 12:23–37: the text says, “These are the numbers of the heads of those who were armed for war, who came to David to Hebron to turn the kingdom of Saul to him, according to the LORD’s word,” and gives the number of each tribe: the children of Judah who bore shield and spear, six thousand eight hundred, armed for war; of the children of Simeon, mighty men of valor for the war, seven thousand one hundred; of the children of Levi, four thousand six hundred; “Jehoiada was the leader of the household of Aaron; and with him were three thousand seven hundred, and Zadok, a young man mighty of valor, and of his father’s house twenty-two captains”; of the children of Benjamin, Saul’s relatives, three thousand, “for until then, the greatest part of them had kept their allegiance to Saul’s house”; of the children of Ephraim, twenty thousand eight hundred, mighty men of valor, famous men in their fathers’ houses; of the half-tribe of Manasseh, eighteen thousand, “who were mentioned by name, to come and make David king”; of the children of Issachar, “men who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, their heads were two hundred; and all their brothers were at their command”; of Zebulun, fifty thousand “who could command and were not of double heart”; of Naphtali, one thousand captains, and with them with shield and spear thirty-seven thousand; of the Danites who could set the battle in array, twenty-eight thousand six hundred; of Asher, forty thousand; and on the other side of the Jordan, of the Reubenites, the Gadites, and of the half-tribe of Manasseh, with all kinds of instruments of war for the battle, one hundred twenty thousand. The text gives no total of these numbers, and does not quote the LORD’s word. The Korean Revised Version reads 12:32 시세를 알고 (knowing the times), and has no words for “who could command” (12:33).
