Commanders of the Divisions
27 Now this is the total count of the sons of Israel, the heads of fathers’ households, the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, and their officers who ministered to the king in each matter of the divisions which came in and went out month by month throughout all the months of the year, each division numbering 24,000:
2 Jashobeam the son of Zabdiel was (A)over the first division for the first month; and in his division were 24,000.
3 He was from the sons of Perez, and was chief of all the commanders of the army for the first month.
4 Dodai the Ahohite and his division were over the division for the second month, Mikloth being the chief officer; and in his division were 24,000.
5 The third commander of the army for the third month was Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada the priest, as chief; and in his division were 24,000.
6 This Benaiah was the mighty man of the thirty, and was over thirty; and over his division was Ammizabad his son.
7 The fourth for the fourth month was Asahel the brother of Joab, and Zebadiah his son after him; and in his division were 24,000.
8 The fifth for the fifth month was the commander Shamhuth the Izrahite; and in his division were 24,000.

10 The seventh for the seventh month was Helez the Pelonite of the sons of Ephraim; and in his division were 24,000.
11 The eighth for the eighth month was Sibbecai the Hushathite of the Zerahites; and in his division were 24,000.
12 The ninth for the ninth month was Abiezer the Anathothite of the Benjamites; and in his division were 24,000.

14 The eleventh for the eleventh month was Benaiah the Pirathonite of the sons of Ephraim; and in his division were 24,000.
15 The twelfth for the twelfth month was Heldai the Netophathite of Othniel; and in his division were 24,000.
Chief Officers of the Tribes
16 Now those over the tribes of Israel:
chief officer for the Reubenites was Eliezer the son of Zichri;
for the Simeonites, Shephatiah the son of Maacah;
17 for Levi, Hashabiah the son of Kemuel;
for Aaron, Zadok;
18 for Judah, Elihu, one of David’s brothers;
for Issachar, Omri the son of Michael;
19 for Zebulun, Ishmaiah the son of Obadiah;
for Naphtali, Jeremoth the son of Azriel;
20 for the sons of Ephraim, Hoshea the son of Azaziah;
for the half-tribe of Manasseh, Joel the son of Pedaiah;
21 for the half-tribe of Manasseh in Gilead, Iddo the son of Zechariah;
for Benjamin, Jaasiel the son of Abner;
22 for Dan, Azarel the son of Jeroham.
(B)These were the princes of the tribes of Israel.
23 But David did not take up a count of those twenty years of age and under, (C)because Yahweh had said He would multiply Israel (D)as the stars of heaven. 24 Joab the son of Zeruiah had begun to number them, but did not finish; and because of (E)this, wrath came upon Israel, and [a]this count was not included in the total count of the chronicles of King David.
Officials over David’s Possessions
25 Now Azmaveth the son of Adiel was over the king’s storehouses.
And Jonathan the son of Uzziah was over the storehouses in the country, in the cities, in the villages and in the towers.
26 Ezri the son of Chelub was over the [b]workers of the field who cultivated the soil.
27 Shimei the Ramathite was over the vineyards;
and Zabdi the Shiphmite was over the [c]produce of the vineyards stored in the wine cellars.
28 Baal-hanan the Gederite was over the olive and (F)sycamore trees in the [d]Shephelah;
and Joash had charge of the stores of oil.
29 Shitrai the Sharonite was over the cattle which were grazing in (G)Sharon;
and Shaphat the son of Adlai was over the cattle in the valleys.
30 Obil the Ishmaelite was over the camels;
and Jehdeiah the Meronothite was over the donkeys.
31 Jaziz the (H)Hagrite was over the flocks.
All these were officials over the possessions which belonged to King David.
Counselors
32 Also Jonathan, David’s uncle, was a counselor, a man of understanding, and a scribe;
and Jehiel the son of Hachmoni was with the king’s sons.
33 (I)Ahithophel was counselor to the king;
and (J)Hushai the Archite was the king’s friend.
34 Jehoiada the son of (K)Benaiah, and (L)Abiathar [e]succeeded Ahithophel;
and Joab was the (M)commander of the king’s army.

De tolv häravdelningarna
27 Detta är förteckningen på Israels barn, efter deras antal, med huvudmännen för deras familjer och med överbefäl och underbefäl och med deras tillsyningsmän, vilka tjänade kungen i allt som rörde krigsfolkets avdelningar, som kom och gick växelvis för var och en av årets alla månader. Varje avdelning bestod av 24 000 man.
2 Över den första avdelningen, den som tjänstgjorde under första månaden, hade Jasobam, Sabdiels son, befälet. I hans avdelning fanns 24 000. 3 Han hörde till Peres barn och var huvudansvarig för alla befäl som tjänstgjorde under första månaden. 4 Över den andra månadens avdelning hade ahoaiten Dodaj befälet, det var hans avdelning. Där fanns också fursten Miklot, och i hans avdelning fanns 24 000. 5 Den tredje befälhavaren, som tjänstgjorde under tredje månaden, var Benaja, översteprästen Jojadas son. I hans avdelning fanns 24 000. 6 Denne Benaja var en hjälte bland de trettio och hade befälet över de trettio. Vid hans avdelning fanns hans son Ammisabad. 7 Den fjärde, som tjänstgjorde under fjärde månaden, var Asael, Joabs bror, och efter honom hans son Sebadja. I hans avdelning fanns 24 000. 8 Den femte, som tjänstgjorde under femte månaden, var befälhavaren Samhut, jisraiten. I hans avdelning fanns 24 000. 9 Den sjätte, som tjänstgjorde under sjätte månaden, var tekoaiten Ira, Ickes son. I hans avdelning fanns 24 000. 10 Den sjunde, som tjänstgjorde under sjunde månaden, var peloniten Heles av Efraims barn.

I hans avdelning fanns 24 000. 14 Den elfte, som tjänstgjorde under elfte månaden, var pirgatoniten Benaja av Efraims barn.

Israels stamhövdingar
16 Israels stamhövdingar var dessa: Furste för rubeniterna var Elieser, Sikris son; för simeoniterna Sefatja, Maakas son; 17 för Levi Hasabja, Kemuels son; för Arons släkt Sadok; 18 för Juda Elihu, en av Davids bröder; för Isaskar Omri, Mikaels son; 19 för Sebulon Jismaja, Obadjas son; för Naftali Jerimot, Asriels son; 20 för Efraims barn Hosea, Asasjas son; för ena hälften av Manasse stam Joel, Pedajas son; 21 för andra hälften av Manasse, den i Gilead, Jiddo, Sakarjas son; för Benjamin Jaasiel, Abners son; 22 för Dan Asarel, Jerohams son. Dessa var Israels stamhövdingar.
23 Men David tog i förteckningen inte upp dem som var under tjugo år, ty Herren hade lovat att han skulle föröka Israel som stjärnorna på himlen. 24 Joab, Serujas son, började räkningen men fullbordade den inte, ty genom den kom vrede över Israel. Antalet togs inte upp i någon förteckning i kung Davids krönika.

25 Uppsikt över kungens skatter hade Asmavet, Adiels son; över förråden på fälten, i städerna och byarna och fästningstornen Jonatan, Ussias son; 26 över dem som arbetade på fälten med jordbruket Esri, Kelubs son; 27 över vingårdarna ramatiten Simei; över de vinförråd som man hade samlat i vingårdarna sifmiten Sabdi; 28 över olivplanteringarna och mullbärsfikonträden i Låglandet gaderiten Baal-Hanan; över oljeförråden Joas; 29 över den nötboskap som betade i Saron saroniten Sitraj och över nötboskapen i dalarna Safat, Adlajs son; 30 över kamelerna ismaeliten Obil; över åsninnorna meronotiten Jedeja; 31 över småboskapen hagariten Jasis. Alla dessa var tillsyningsmän över kung Davids ägodelar.

32 Jonatan, Davids farbror, var rådgivare. Han var en förståndig och skriftlärd man. Jehiel, Hakmonis son, var anställd hos kungens söner. 33 Ahitofel var kungens rådgivare och arkiten Husaj var kungens vän. 34 Efter Ahitofel kom Jojada, Benajas son, och Ebjatar. Joab var kungens överbefälhavare.

Chapter 27
Commanders of the Army. 1 This is the list of the leaders of the ancestral clans of the Israelites, the captains of the thousands and the hundreds, the officials who served the king in anything concerning going out or coming in as they were on duty from month to month, all throughout the year. Each division had twenty-four thousand men.
2 Ishbaal, the son of Zabdiel, was in charge of the first division for the first month. There were twenty-four thousand men in his division. 3 He was a descendant of Perez, and he was the leader of all of the captains of the army for the first month.
4 Dodai the Ahohite was in charge of the division for the second month. There were twenty-four thousand men in his division.
5 Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, the priest, was the third leader of the army for the third month. He was the leader, and there were twenty-four thousand men in his division. 6 This was the same Benaiah who was a brave warrior from among the Thirty and the leader of the Thirty. His son Ammizabad was in charge of his division.
7 Asahel, the brother of Joab, was the fourth for the fourth month. Zebadiah, his son, succeeded him. There were twenty-four thousand men in his division.

11 Sibbecai the Hushathite, a Zerahite, was the eighth for the eighth month. There were twenty-four thousand men in his division.
12 Abiezer the Anathothite, a Benjaminite, was the ninth for the ninth month. There were twenty-four thousand men in his division.
13 Maharai the Netophathite, a Zerahite, was the tenth for the tenth month. There were twenty-four thousand men in his division.
14 Benaiah the Pirathonite, an Ephraimite, was the eleventh for the eleventh month. There were twenty-four thousand men in his division.
15 Heldai the Netophathite from the family of Othniel was the twelfth for the twelfth month. There were twenty-four thousand men in his division.
16 Tribal Heads. The leaders of the tribes of Israel were: for the Reubenites: Eliezer, the son of Zichri; for the Simeonites: Shephatiah, the son of Maacah; 17 for the Levites: Hashabiah, the son of Kemuel; for the Aaronites: Zadok; 18 for the Judahites: Eliab, the brother of David; for the Issacharites: Omri, the son of Michael; 19 for the Zebulunites: Ishmaiah, the son of Obadiah; for the Naphtalites: Jeremoth, the son of Azriel; 20 for the Ephraimites: Hoshea, the son of Azaziah; for one-half of the tribe of Manasseh: Joel, the son of Pedaiah; 21 for the other half of the tribe of Manasseh in Gilead: Iddo, the son of Zechariah; for the Benjaminites: Jaasiel, the son of Abner; 22 and for the Danites: Azarel, the son of Jeroham. These were the leaders in charge of the tribes of Israel.
23 David did not take stock of those who were younger than twenty years old because the Lord had said that Israel would increase to be as many as the stars in the heavens. 24 Joab, the son of Zeruiah, began to count them, but he did not finish when wrath fell upon Israel because of it. Therefore the number was not entered into the chronicles of King David.
25 Administrators. Azmaveth, the son of Adiel, was responsible for the royal treasury. Jonathan, the son of Uzziah, was in charge of the storehouses in the fields, the cities, the villages, and the watchtowers. 26 Ezri, the son of Chelub, was in charge of the field workers who farmed the land. 27 Shimei the Ramathite was in charge of the vineyards.

Joash was in charge of the olive oil supply in the cellars. 29 Shitrai the Sharonite was in charge of the grazing herds in Sharon. Shaphat, the son of Adlai, was in charge of the herds in the valleys. 30 Obil the Ishmaelite was in charge of the camels. Jehdeiah the Meronothite was in charge of the donkeys. 31 Jaziz the Hagrite was in charge of the flocks.
These were all officials in charge of King David’s possessions. 32 Jonathan, David’s uncle, was a counselor. He was an insightful man, and he was a scribe. Jehiel, the son of Hachamoni, was in charge of the king’s sons. 33 Ahithophel was the king’s counselor. Hushai the Archite was the king’s companion.[a] 34 Ahithophel was succeeded by Jehoiada, the son of Benaiah, and by Abiathar.[b] Joab was the commander of the king’s army.
