Dux quoque turmae tertiae in mense tertio erat Banaias filius Jojadae sacerdos: et in divisione sua viginti quatuor millia.

Ipse est Banaias fortissimus inter triginta, et super triginta: praeerat autem turmae ipsius Amizabad filius ejus.

23 Noluit autem David numerare eos a viginti annis inferius: quia dixerat Dominus ut multiplicaret Israel quasi stellas caeli.

33 Achitophel etiam consiliarius regis, et Chusai Arachites amicus regis.

34 Post Achitophel fuit Jojada filius Banaiae, et Abiathar. Princeps autem exercitus regis erat Joab.

Leaders of the Tribes

16 The leaders of the tribes of Israel:

over the Reubenites: Eliezer son of Zikri;

22 over Dan: Azarel son of Jeroham.

These were the leaders of the tribes of Israel.

23 David did not take the number of the men twenty years old or less,(P) because the Lord had promised to make Israel as numerous as the stars(Q) in the sky. 24 Joab son of Zeruiah began to count the men but did not finish. God’s wrath came on Israel on account of this numbering,(R) and the number was not entered in the book[a] of the annals of King David.
