Remember continually his covenantal decree, the promise he made to a thousand generations –

He always remembers his covenantal decree, the promise he made to a thousand generations –

These Gadites were military leaders; the least led a hundred men, the greatest a thousand.

The least of you will multiply into a thousand; the smallest of you will become a large nation. When the right time comes, I the Lord will quickly do this!”

We will take ten of every group of a hundred men from all the tribes of Israel (and a hundred of every group of a thousand, and a thousand of every group of ten thousand) to get supplies for the army. When they arrive in Gibeah of Benjamin they will punish them for the atrocity which they committed in Israel.”
