1Ch 11:1 Then all Israel gathered them selues to Dauid vnto Hebron, saying:

1Ch 11:2 Beholde, we be thy bones, and thy fleshe: And moreouer in tyme past, euen when Saul was king, thou leddest Israel out & in: And the Lorde thy God sayde vnto thee, Thou shalt feede my people Israel, and thou shalt be captayne ouer my people Israel.

1Ch 11:3 Therefore came all the elders of Israel to the king to Hebron, and Dauid made a couenaunt with them in Hebro before the Lorde: And they annoynted Dauid king ouer Israel according to the worde of the Lorde, by the hande of Samuel.

1Ch 11:4 And Dauid and all Israel went to Hierusalem (which is Iebus, where as were the Iebusites, the inhabiters of the lande.)

1Ch 11:5 And the inhabiters of Iebus sayde to Dauid: Thou commest not in here. Neuerthelesse, Dauid wan the castel of Sion: which is called the citie of Dauid.

1Ch 11:6 And Dauid sayde: Whosoeuer smyteth the Iebusites first, shalbe the principall captayne, and a lorde. So Ioab the sonne of Zaruia went first vp, and was made the chiefe captayne.

1Ch 11:7 And Dauid dwelt in the castell [Sion] and therefore they called it the citie of Dauid.

1Ch 11:8 And he built the citie on euery syde, euen from Millo round about: and Ioab repaired the rest of the citie.

1Ch 11:9 And Dauid prospered & waxed great, & the Lorde of hoastes was with him.

1Ch 11:10 These are the principall men of power whom Dauid had, and that claue to him in his kingdome with all Israel to make him king, according to the word of the Lorde ouer Israel.

1Ch 11:11 And this is the number of the mightie men whom Dauid had: Iosobeam the sonne of Hachmoni the chiefe among thirtie: he lift vp his speare against three hundred, and wounded [them] at one tyme.

1Ch 11:12 After him was Eleazar his vncles sonne an Ahothite, which was one of the three mightiest:

1Ch 11:13 He was with Dauid at Pasdammim, and there the Philistines were gathered together to battaile: And there was there a parcell of grounde full of barly, and the people fled before the Philistines.

1Ch 11:14 And they stept foorth into the middest of the fielde, and saued it, and slue the Philistines, and the Lorde gaue a great victorie.

1Ch 11:15 And the three of the thirtie chiefe captaynes went to a rocke to Dauid, into the caue Adullam: And the hoast of the Philistines abode in the valley of Rephaim.

1Ch 11:16 And when Dauid was in the holde, the Philistines watch was at Bethlehem that same tyme.

1Ch 11:17 And Dauid longed, and sayde: Oh that one woulde geue me drinke of the water of the well that is at the gate at Bethlehem.

1Ch 11:18 And the three brake through the hoast of the Philistines, and drewe water out of the wel that was by ye gate at Bethlehem, and toke it and brought it to Dauid: Neuerthelesse, Dauid woulde not drinke of it, but rather offered it to the Lorde,

1Ch 11:19 And sayd: my God forbyd it me that I shoulde do this thing: Shall I drinke the blood of these men, that haue put their liues in ieoperdie? for with the ieoperdie of their liues they brought it: therefore he would not drinke it. And this did these three mightiest.

1Ch 11:20 And Abisai the brother of Ioab, he also was captayne among three: For he lyft vp his speare against three hundred, and wounded them, and had a name among the three:

1Ch 11:21 Yea among three, he was more honorable then the two, for he was their captayne: Howbeit, he attayned not to the [first] three.

1Ch 11:22 Banaia ye sonne of Iehoiada, the sonne of a very strong man, which had done many actes, of Cabzeel: he slue two strong [lions] of Moab, & went downe and slue a lion in a pit in time of snowe.

1Ch 11:23 And he slue an Egyptian, whose stature was euen fiue cubites long, and in the Egyptians hand was a speare lyke a weauers beame: And the other went downe to him with a waster, & plucked the speare out of the Egyptians hand, and slue him with his owne speare.

1Ch 11:24 Such thinges did Banaia the sonne of Iehoiada, and had the name among the three mightiest,

1Ch 11:25 And was honorable among thirtie: but attayned not vnto the [first] three: And Dauid made him of his counsaile.
