1 Chronik 11
Schlachter 1951
David wird König über ganz Israel
11 Und ganz Israel versammelte sich zu David gen Hebron und sprach: Siehe, wir sind dein Gebein und dein Fleisch! 2 Auch zuvor, als Saul König war, führtest du Israel aus und ein. Und der Herr, dein Gott, hat zu dir gesagt: Du sollst mein Volk Israel weiden, und du sollst Fürst sein über mein Volk Israel!
3 Auch alle Ältesten Israels kamen zum König gen Hebron. Und David machte einen Bund mit ihnen zu Hebron vor dem Herrn. Und sie salbten David zum König über Israel, nach dem Worte des Herrn durch Samuel.
David erobert Jerusalem
4 Und David und ganz Israel zogen nach Jerusalem, das ist Jebus; denn die Jebusiter wohnten daselbst im Lande. 5 Und die Bürger zu Jebus sprachen zu David: Du sollst nicht hereinkommen! David aber eroberte die Burg Zion, das ist Davids Stadt.
6 Denn David sprach: Wer die Jebusiter zuerst schlägt, der soll Haupt und Oberster sein! Da erstieg sie zuerst Joab, der Sohn der Zeruja, und ward Hauptmann.
7 David aber wohnte auf der Burg; daher heißt man sie Davids Stadt. 8 Und er baute die Stadt, vom Millo an ringsum, während Joab die übrige Stadt wieder herstellte. 9 Und David nahm immer mehr zu und ward groß, und der Herr der Heerscharen war mit ihm.
Davids Helden
10 Und dies sind die Obersten von Davids Helden, die mit ganz Israel ihm kräftig beistanden bei seiner Erhebung zur Königswürde, da man ihn zum König machte nach dem Worte des Herrn über Israel. 11 Dies ist die Zahl der Helden Davids:
Jasobeam, der Sohn Hachmonis, Haupt der Wagenkämpfer. Dieser hob seinen Speer auf wider dreihundert, die auf einmal erschlagen wurden.
12 Nach ihm war Eleasar, der Sohn Dodos, der Achochiter; der war unter den drei Helden. 13 Er war auch mit David zu Pas-Dammim, als die Philister sich dort zum Streite versammelt hatten. Nun war daselbst ein Stück Acker voll Gerste. Und das Volk floh vor den Philistern. 14 Da traten sie mitten auf das Stück und erretteten es und schlugen die Philister. Und der Herr gab großes Heil.
15 Überdies zogen drei aus den dreißig Vornehmsten zum Felsen hinab, zu David in die Höhle Adullam, als das Lager der Philister im Grunde Rephaim lag. 16 David aber war damals auf der Berghöhe; und die Besatzung der Philister war damals zu Bethlehem. 17 Und David hatte ein Gelüste und sprach: Wer will mir Wasser zu trinken geben aus dem Brunnen unter dem Tor zu Bethlehem? 18 Da brachen die drei durch das Lager der Philister und schöpften von dem Wasser aus dem Brunnen unter dem Tor zu Bethlehem und brachten es David. David aber wollte es nicht trinken, sondern opferte es dem Herrn und sprach: 19 Das lasse mein Gott ferne von mir sein, daß ich solches tue! Sollte ich das Blut dieser Männer trinken, [die] auf Gefahr ihres Lebens [hingegangen sind]? Denn mit Gefahr ihres Lebens haben sie es hergebracht! Darum wollte er's nicht trinken.
Das taten diese drei Helden.
20 Abisai, der Bruder Joabs, war der Vornehmste unter den Dreien. Der hob auch seinen Speer auf und erschlug dreihundert. Und er war unter den Dreien berühmt. 21 Unter diesen Dreien der zweiten Ordnung war er der Herrlichste und war ihr Oberster. Aber an jene [ersten] Drei reichte er nicht.
22 Benaja, der Sohn Jojadas, eines tapfern Mannes Sohn, groß von Taten, von Kabzeel; derselbe erschlug die zwei Gotteslöwen[a] von Moab und ging hinab und erschlug einen Löwen mitten in einer Grube zur Schneezeit. 23 Er erschlug auch einen ägyptischen Mann, der war fünf Ellen lang und hatte einen Speer in der Hand, wie ein Weberbaum; und er ging mit einem Stecken zu ihm hinab und riß ihm den Speer aus der Hand und tötete ihn mit seinem eigenen Speer. 24 Das tat Benaja, der Sohn Jojadas, und war berühmt unter den drei Helden. 25 Siehe, er war der Herrlichste unter den Dreißig; aber an die [ersten] Drei reichte er nicht. Und David setzte ihn über seine Leibwache.
26 Die streitbaren Kriegshelden aber sind diese:
Asahel, der Bruder Joabs;

1 Chronicles 11
King James Version
11 Then all Israel gathered themselves to David unto Hebron, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh.
2 And moreover in time past, even when Saul was king, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and the Lord thy God said unto thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be ruler over my people Israel.
3 Therefore came all the elders of Israel to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the Lord; and they anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of the Lord by Samuel.
4 And David and all Israel went to Jerusalem, which is Jebus; where the Jebusites were, the inhabitants of the land.
5 And the inhabitants of Jebus said to David, Thou shalt not come hither. Nevertheless David took the castle of Zion, which is the city of David.
6 And David said, Whosoever smiteth the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain. So Joab the son of Zeruiah went first up, and was chief.
7 And David dwelt in the castle; therefore they called it the city of David.
8 And he built the city round about, even from Millo round about: and Joab repaired the rest of the city.
9 So David waxed greater and greater: for the Lord of hosts was with him.
10 These also are the chief of the mighty men whom David had, who strengthened themselves with him in his kingdom, and with all Israel, to make him king, according to the word of the Lord concerning Israel.
11 And this is the number of the mighty men whom David had; Jashobeam, an Hachmonite, the chief of the captains: he lifted up his spear against three hundred slain by him at one time.
12 And after him was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, who was one of the three mighties.
13 He was with David at Pasdammim, and there the Philistines were gathered together to battle, where was a parcel of ground full of barley; and the people fled from before the Philistines.
14 And they set themselves in the midst of that parcel, and delivered it, and slew the Philistines; and the Lord saved them by a great deliverance.
15 Now three of the thirty captains went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam; and the host of the Philistines encamped in the valley of Rephaim.
16 And David was then in the hold, and the Philistines' garrison was then at Bethlehem.
17 And David longed, and said, Oh that one would give me drink of the water of the well of Bethlehem, that is at the gate!
18 And the three brake through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David: but David would not drink of it, but poured it out to the Lord.
19 And said, My God forbid it me, that I should do this thing: shall I drink the blood of these men that have put their lives in jeopardy? for with the jeopardy of their lives they brought it. Therefore he would not drink it. These things did these three mightiest.
20 And Abishai the brother of Joab, he was chief of the three: for lifting up his spear against three hundred, he slew them, and had a name among the three.
21 Of the three, he was more honourable than the two; for he was their captain: howbeit he attained not to the first three.
22 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done many acts; he slew two lionlike men of Moab: also he went down and slew a lion in a pit in a snowy day.
23 And he slew an Egyptian, a man of great stature, five cubits high; and in the Egyptian's hand was a spear like a weaver's beam; and he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and slew him with his own spear.
24 These things did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and had the name among the three mighties.
25 Behold, he was honourable among the thirty, but attained not to the first three: and David set him over his guard.
26 Also the valiant men of the armies were, Asahel the brother of Joab, Elhanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem,
27 Shammoth the Harorite, Helez the Pelonite,
28 Ira the son of Ikkesh the Tekoite, Abiezer the Antothite,
29 Sibbecai the Hushathite, Ilai the Ahohite,
30 Maharai the Netophathite, Heled the son of Baanah the Netophathite,
31 Ithai the son of Ribai of Gibeah, that pertained to the children of Benjamin, Benaiah the Pirathonite,
32 Hurai of the brooks of Gaash, Abiel the Arbathite,
33 Azmaveth the Baharumite, Eliahba the Shaalbonite,
34 The sons of Hashem the Gizonite, Jonathan the son of Shage the Hararite,
35 Ahiam the son of Sacar the Hararite, Eliphal the son of Ur,
36 Hepher the Mecherathite, Ahijah the Pelonite,
37 Hezro the Carmelite, Naarai the son of Ezbai,
38 Joel the brother of Nathan, Mibhar the son of Haggeri,

40 Ira the Ithrite, Gareb the Ithrite,
41 Uriah the Hittite, Zabad the son of Ahlai,
42 Adina the son of Shiza the Reubenite, a captain of the Reubenites, and thirty with him,
43 Hanan the son of Maachah, and Joshaphat the Mithnite,
44 Uzzia the Ashterathite, Shama and Jehiel the sons of Hothan the Aroerite,
45 Jediael the son of Shimri, and Joha his brother, the Tizite,

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
David Anointed King of All Israel
11 Then all Israel gathered together to David at Hebron and said, ‘See, we are your bone and flesh. 2 For some time now, even while Saul was king, it was you who commanded the army of Israel. The Lord your God said to you: It is you who shall be shepherd of my people Israel, you who shall be ruler over my people Israel.’ 3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, and David made a covenant with them at Hebron before the Lord. And they anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of the Lord by Samuel.
Jerusalem Captured
4 David and all Israel marched to Jerusalem, that is, Jebus where the Jebusites were, the inhabitants of the land. 5 The inhabitants of Jebus said to David, ‘You will not come in here.’ Nevertheless, David took the stronghold of Zion, now the city of David. 6 David had said, ‘Whoever attacks the Jebusites first shall be chief and commander.’ And Joab son of Zeruiah went up first, so he became chief. 7 David resided in the stronghold; therefore it was called the city of David. 8 He built the city all round, from the Millo in a complete circuit; and Joab repaired the rest of the city. 9 And David became greater and greater, for the Lord of hosts was with him.
David’s Mighty Men and Their Exploits
10 Now these are the chiefs of David’s warriors, who gave him strong support in his kingdom, together with all Israel, to make him king, according to the word of the Lord concerning Israel. 11 This is an account of David’s mighty warriors: Jashobeam, son of Hachmoni,[a] was chief of the Three;[b] he wielded his spear against three hundred whom he killed at one time.
12 And next to him among the three warriors was Eleazar son of Dodo, the Ahohite. 13 He was with David at Pas-dammim when the Philistines were gathered there for battle. There was a plot of ground full of barley. Now the people had fled from the Philistines, 14 but he and David took their stand in the middle of the plot, defended it, and killed the Philistines; and the Lord saved them by a great victory.
15 Three of the thirty chiefs went down to the rock to David at the cave of Adullam, while the army of Philistines was encamped in the valley of Rephaim. 16 David was then in the stronghold; and the garrison of the Philistines was then at Bethlehem. 17 David said longingly, ‘O that someone would give me water to drink from the well of Bethlehem that is by the gate!’ 18 Then the Three broke through the camp of the Philistines, and drew water from the well of Bethlehem that was by the gate, and they brought it to David. But David would not drink of it; he poured it out to the Lord, 19 and said, ‘My God forbid that I should do this. Can I drink the blood of these men? For at the risk of their lives they brought it.’ Therefore he would not drink it. The three warriors did these things.
20 Now Abishai,[c] the brother of Joab, was chief of the Thirty.[d] With his spear he fought against three hundred and killed them, and won a name beside the Three. 21 He was the most renowned[e] of the Thirty,[f] and became their commander; but he did not attain to the Three.
22 Benaiah son of Jehoiada was a valiant man[g] of Kabzeel, a doer of great deeds; he struck down two sons of[h] Ariel of Moab. He also went down and killed a lion in a pit on a day when snow had fallen. 23 And he killed an Egyptian, a man of great stature, five cubits tall. The Egyptian had in his hand a spear like a weaver’s beam; but Benaiah went against him with a staff, snatched the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and killed him with his own spear. 24 Such were the things Benaiah son of Jehoiada did, and he won a name beside the three warriors. 25 He was renowned among the Thirty, but he did not attain to the Three. And David put him in charge of his bodyguard.
26 The warriors of the armies were Asahel brother of Joab, Elhanan son of Dodo of Bethlehem, 27 Shammoth of Harod,[i] Helez the Pelonite, 28 Ira son of Ikkesh of Tekoa, Abiezer of Anathoth, 29 Sibbecai the Hushathite, Ilai the Ahohite, 30 Maharai of Netophah, Heled son of Baanah of Netophah, 31 Ithai son of Ribai of Gibeah of the Benjaminites, Benaiah of Pirathon, 32 Hurai of the wadis of Gaash, Abiel the Arbathite, 33 Azmaveth of Baharum, Eliahba of Shaalbon, 34 Hashem[j] the Gizonite, Jonathan son of Shagee the Hararite, 35 Ahiam son of Sachar the Hararite, Eliphal son of Ur, 36 Hepher the Mecherathite, Ahijah the Pelonite, 37 Hezro of Carmel, Naarai son of Ezbai, 38 Joel the brother of Nathan, Mibhar son of Hagri, 39 Zelek the Ammonite, Naharai of Beeroth, the armour-bearer of Joab son of Zeruiah, 40 Ira the Ithrite, Gareb the Ithrite, 41 Uriah the Hittite, Zabad son of Ahlai, 42 Adina son of Shiza the Reubenite, a leader of the Reubenites, and thirty with him, 43 Hanan son of Maacah, and Joshaphat the Mithnite, 44 Uzzia the Ashterathite, Shama and Jeiel sons of Hotham the Aroerite, 45 Jediael son of Shimri, and his brother Joha the Tizite, 46 Eliel the Mahavite, and Jeribai and Joshaviah sons of Elnaam, and Ithmah the Moabite, 47 Eliel, and Obed, and Jaasiel the Mezobaite.
