2 Chronicles 17:12-19
New International Version
12 Jehoshaphat became more and more powerful; he built forts and store cities in Judah 13 and had large supplies in the towns of Judah. He also kept experienced fighting men in Jerusalem. 14 Their enrollment(A) by families was as follows:
From Judah, commanders of units of 1,000:
Adnah the commander, with 300,000 fighting men;
15 next, Jehohanan the commander, with 280,000;
16 next, Amasiah son of Zikri, who volunteered(B) himself for the service of the Lord, with 200,000.
17 From Benjamin:(C)
Eliada, a valiant soldier, with 200,000 men armed with bows and shields;
18 next, Jehozabad, with 180,000 men armed for battle.
19 These were the men who served the king, besides those he stationed in the fortified cities(D) throughout Judah.(E)
2 Chronicles 17:12-19
International Standard Version
12 As a result, Jehoshaphat grew more and more powerful, and built up fortresses and storage centers throughout Judah. 13 He placed a large amount of supplies into storage throughout the cities of Judah and stationed soldiers—all of them valiant men—in Jerusalem. 14 Here’s how they were mustered, listed according to their ancestral houses and listed by commanders of thousands: Adnah commanded 300,000 elite forces. 15 Near him was Johanan, commander of 280,000 16 and next to him was Zichri’s son Amasiah, who had volunteered to serve the Lord. He commanded 200,000 elite forces. 17 There was also Eliada from Benjamin, himself a valiant soldier. He was accompanied by 200,000 expert archers bearing shields. 18 Near him was Jehozabad, who was accompanied by 180,000 soldiers equipped for warfare. 19 These men served the king, and there were others whom the king garrisoned inside fortified cities throughout all of Judah.
