[1] The sons of Judah; Pharez, Hezron, and Carmi, and Hur,
and Shobal.
[2] And Reaiah the son of Shobal begat Jahath; and Jahath
begat Ahumai and Lahad. These are the families of the
Zorathites.
[3] And these were of the father of Etam; Jezreel, and
Ishma, and Idbash: and the name of their sister was
Hazelelponi:
[4] And Penuel the father of Gedor and Ezer the father of
Hushah. These are the sons of Hur, the firstborn of Ephratah, the
father of Bethlehem.
[5] And Ashur the father of Tekoa had two wives, Helah and
Naarah.
[6] And Naarah bare him Ahuzam, and Hepher, and Temeni,
and Haahashtari. These were the sons of Naarah.
[7] And the sons of Helah were, Zereth, and Jezoar, and
Ethnan.
[8] And Coz begat Anub, and Zobebah, and the families of
Aharhel the son of Harum.
[9] And Jabez was more honourable than his brethren: and
his mother called his name Jabez, saying, Because I bare him with
sorrow.
[10] And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh
that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and
that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me
from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that
which he requested.
[11] And Chelub the brother of Shuah begat Mehir, which
was the father of Eshton.
[12] And Eshton begat Beth-rapha, and Paseah, and Tehinnah
the father of Ir-nahash. These are the men of Rechah.
[13] And the sons of Kenaz; Othniel, and Seraiah: and the
sons of Othniel; Hathath.
[14] And Meonothai begat Ophrah: and Seraiah begat Joab,
the father of the valley of Charashim; for they were
craftsmen.
[15] And the sons of Caleb the son of Jephunneh; Iru,
Elah, and Naam: and the sons of Elah, even Kenaz.
[16] And the sons of Jehaleleel; Ziph, and Ziphah, Tiria,
and Asareel.
[17] And the sons of Ezra were, Jether, and Mered, and
Epher, and Jalon: and she bare Miriam, and Shammai, and Ishbah
the father of Eshtemoa.
[18] And his wife Jehudiajah bare Jered the father of
Gedor, and Heber the father of Socho, and Jekuthiel the father of
Zanoah. And these are the sons of Bithiah the daughter of
Pharoah, which Mered took.
[19] And the sons of his wife Hodiah the sister of Naham,
the father of Keilah the Garmite, and Eshtemoa the
Maachathite.
[20] And the sons of Shimon were, Amnon, and Rinnah,
Ben-hanan, and Tilon. And the sons of Ishi were, Zoheth, and
Ben-zoheth.
[21] The sons of Shelah the son of Judah were, Er the
father of Lecah, and Laadah the father of Mareshah, and the
families of the house of them that wrought fine linen, of the
house of Ashbea,
[22] And Jokim, and the men of Chozeba, and Joash, and
Saraph, who had the dominion in Moab, and Jashubi-lehem. And
these are ancient things.
[23] These were the potters, and those that dwelt among
plants and hedges: there they dwelt with the king for his
work.
[24] The sons of Simeon were, Nemuel, and Jamin, Jarib,
Zerah, and Shaul:
[25] Shallum his son, Mibsam his son, Mishma his
son.
[26] And the sons of Mishma; Hamuel his son, Zachur his
son, Shimei his son.
[27] And Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters; but
his brethren had not many children, neither did all their family
multiply, like to the children of Judah.
[28] And they dwelt at Beer-sheba, and Moladah, and
Hazar-shual,
[29] And at Bilhah, and at Ezem, and at Tolad,
[30] And at Bethuel, and at Hormah, and at Ziklag,
[31] And at Beth-marcaboth, and Hazar-susim, and at
Beth-birei, and at Shaaraim. These were their cities unto the
reign of David.
[32] And their villages were, Etam, and Ain, Rimmon, and
Tochen, and Ashan, five cities:
[33] And all their villages that were round about the same
cities, unto Baal. These were their habitations, and their
genealogy.
[34] And Meshobab, and Jamlech, and Joshah the son of
Amaziah,
[35] And Joel, and Jehu the son of Josibiah, the son of
Seraiah, the son of Asiel,
[36] And Elioenai, and Jaakobah, and Jeshohaiah, and
Asaiah, and Adiel, and Jesimiel, and Benaiah,
[37] And Ziza the son of Shiphi, the son of Allon, the son
of Jedaiah, the son of Shimri, the son of Shemaiah;
[38] These mentioned by their names were princes in their
families: and the house of their fathers increased greatly.
[39] And they went to the entrance of Gedor, even unto the
east side of the valley, to seek pasture for their flocks.
[40] And they found fat pasture and good, and the land was
wide, and quiet, and peaceable; for they of Ham had dwelt there
of old.
[41] And these written by name came in the days of
Hezekiah king of Judah, and smote their tents, and the
habitations that were found there, and destroyed them utterly
unto this day, and dwelt in their rooms: because there was
pasture there for their flocks.
[42] And some of them, even of the sons of Simeon, five
hundred men, went to mount Seir, having for their captains
Pelatiah, and Neariah, and Rephaiah, and Uzziel, the sons of
Ishi.
[43] And they smote the rest of the Amalekites that were
escaped, and dwelt there unto this day.
