I Chronicles 4

The Family of Judah
1The sons of Judah were #Gen. 38:29; 46:12Perez, Hezron, Carmi, Hur, and Shobal. 2And Reaiah the son of Shobal begot Jahath, and Jahath begot Ahumai and Lahad. These were the families of the Zorathites. 3These were the sons of the father of Etam: Jezreel, Ishma, and Idbash; and the name of their sister was Hazelelponi; 4and Penuel was the father of Gedor, and Ezer was the father of Hushah.
These were the sons of #Ex. 31:2; 1 Chr. 2:50Hur, the firstborn of Ephrathah the father of Bethlehem.
5And #1 Chr. 2:24Ashhur the father of Tekoa had two wives, Helah and Naarah. 6Naarah bore him Ahuzzam, Hepher, Temeni, and Haahashtari. These were the sons of Naarah. 7The sons of Helah were Zereth, Zohar, and Ethnan; 8and Koz begot Anub, Zobebah, and the families of Aharhel the son of Harum.
9Now Jabez was #Gen. 34:19more honorable than his brothers, and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, “Because I bore him in pain.” 10And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, “Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!” So God granted him what he requested.
11Chelub the brother of #Job 8:1Shuhah begot Mehir, who was the father of Eshton. 12And Eshton begot Beth-Rapha, Paseah, and Tehinnah the father of Ir-Nahash. These were the men of Rechah.
13The sons of Kenaz were #Josh. 15:17; Judg. 3:9, 11Othniel and Seraiah. The sons of Othniel were Hathath, 14and Meonothai who begot Ophrah. Seraiah begot Joab the father of #Neh. 11:35Ge Harashim, for they were craftsmen. 15The sons of #Josh. 14:6, 14; 15:13, 17; 1 Chr. 6:56Caleb the son of Jephunneh were Iru, Elah, and Naam. The son of Elah was Kenaz. 16The sons of Jehallelel were Ziph, Ziphah, Tiria, and Asarel. 17The sons of Ezrah were Jether, Mered, Epher, and Jalon. And Mered’s wife bore Miriam, Shammai, and Ishbah the father of Eshtemoa. 18(His wife Jehudijah bore Jered the father of Gedor, Heber the father of Sochoh, and Jekuthiel the father of Zanoah.) And these were the sons of Bithiah the daughter of Pharaoh, whom Mered took.
19The sons of Hodiah’s wife, the sister of Naham, were the fathers of Keilah the Garmite and of Eshtemoa the #2 Kin. 25:23Maachathite. 20And the sons of Shimon were Amnon, Rinnah, Ben-Hanan, and Tilon. And the sons of Ishi were Zoheth and Ben-Zoheth.
21The sons of #Gen. 38:11, 14Shelah #Gen. 38:1–5; 46:12the son of Judah were Er the father of Lecah, Laadah the father of Mareshah, and the families of the house of the linen workers of the house of Ashbea; 22also Jokim, the men of Chozeba, and Joash; Saraph, who ruled in Moab, and Jashubi-Lehem. Now the records are ancient. 23These were the potters and those who dwell at Netaim and Gederah; there they dwelt with the king for his work.
The Family of Simeon
24The #Num. 26:12–14sons of Simeon were Nemuel, Jamin, Jarib, Zerah, and Shaul, 25Shallum his son, Mibsam his son, and Mishma his son. 26And the sons of Mishma were Hamuel his son, Zacchur his son, and Shimei his son. 27Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters; but his brothers did not have many children, #Num. 2:9nor did any of their families multiply as much as the children of Judah.
28They dwelt at Beersheba, Moladah, Hazar Shual, 29Bilhah, Ezem, Tolad, 30Bethuel, Hormah, Ziklag, 31Beth Marcaboth, Hazar Susim, Beth Biri, and at Shaaraim. These were their cities until the reign of David. 32And their villages were Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Tochen, and Ashan—five cities— 33and all the villages that were around these cities as far as Baal. These were their dwelling places, and they maintained their genealogy: 34Meshobab, Jamlech, and Joshah the son of Amaziah; 35Joel, and Jehu the son of Joshibiah, the son of Seraiah, the son of Asiel; 36Elioenai, Jaakobah, Jeshohaiah, Asaiah, Adiel, Jesimiel, and Benaiah; 37Ziza the son of Shiphi, the son of Allon, the son of Jedaiah, the son of Shimri, the son of Shemaiah— 38these mentioned by name were leaders in their families, and their father’s house increased greatly.
39So they went to the entrance of Gedor, as far as the east side of the valley, to seek pasture for their flocks. 40And they found rich, good pasture, and the land was broad, quiet, and peaceful; for some Hamites formerly lived there.
41These recorded by name came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah; and they #2 Kin. 18:8attacked their tents and the Meunites who were found there, and #2 Kin. 19:11utterly destroyed them, as it is to this day. So they dwelt in their place, because there was pasture for their flocks there. 42Now some of them, five hundred men of the sons of Simeon, went to Mount Seir, having as their captains Pelatiah, Neariah, Rephaiah, and Uzziel, the sons of Ishi. 43And they defeated #Ex. 17:14; 1 Sam. 15:8; 30:17the rest of the Amalekites who had escaped. They have dwelt there to this day.
