And of the Gadites there separated themselves unto David into the hold to the wilderness men of might, and men of war fit for the battle, that could handle shield and buckler, whose faces were like the faces of lions, and were as swift as the roes upon the mountains;

The children of Judah that bare shield and spear were six thousand and eight hundred, ready armed to the war.

And of Naphtali a thousand captains, and with them with shield and spear thirty and seven thousand.
