Saraph, who had the dominion in Moab, and Jashubilehem. And these are
ancient things. |
| These were the potters, and those that dwelt among

Zerah, and Shaul: |
| Shallum his son, Mibsam his son, Mishma his son. |
| And the sons of Mishma; Hamuel his son, Zacchur his
son, Shimei his son. |
| 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. |
| And they dwelt at Beersheba, and Moladah, and
Hazarshual, |
| And at Bilhah, and at Ezem, and at Tolad, |
| And at Bethuel, and at Hormah, and at Ziklag, |
| And at Bethmarcaboth, and Hazarsusim, and at
Bethbirei, and at Shaaraim. These were their cities unto the reign of
David. |
| And their villages were, Etam, and Ain, Rimmon, and
Tochen, and Ashan, five cities: |
| And all their villages that were round about the
same cities, unto Baal. These were their habitations, and their

| These mentioned by their names were princes in their
families: and the house of their fathers increased greatly. |
| And they went to the entrance of Gedor, even unto
the east side of the valley, to seek pasture for their flocks. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| And they smote the rest of the Amalekites that were
escaped, and dwelt there unto this day. |
| Now the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel, (for
he was the firstborn; but, forasmuch as he defiled his father's bed, his
birthright was given unto the sons of Joseph the son of Israel: and the
genealogy is not to be reckoned after the birthright. |
| For Judah prevailed above his brethren, and of him
came the chief ruler; but the birthright was Joseph's:) |
| The sons, I say, of Reuben the firstborn of Israel
were, Hanoch, and Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi. |
| The sons of Joel; Shemaiah his son, Gog his son,
Shimei his son, |
| Micah his son, Reaia his son, Baal his son, |
| Beerah his son, whom Tilgathpilneser king of Assyria
carried away captive: he was prince of the Reubenites. |
| And his brethren by their families, when the
genealogy of their generations was reckoned, were the chief, Jeiel, and
Zechariah, |
| And Bela the son of Azaz, the son of Shema, the son
of Joel, who dwelt in Aroer, even unto Nebo and Baalmeon: |
| And eastward he inhabited unto the entering in of
the wilderness from the river Euphrates: because their cattle were
multiplied in the land of Gilead. |
| And in the days of Saul they made war with the
Hagarites, who fell by their hand: and they dwelt in their tents
throughout all the east land of Gilead. |
| And the children of Gad dwelt over against them, in
the land of Bashan unto Salcah: |
| Joel the chief, and Shapham the next, and Jaanai,
and Shaphat in Bashan. |
| And their brethren of the house of their fathers
were, Michael, and Meshullam, and Sheba, and Jorai, and Jachan, and Zia,
and Heber, seven. |
| These are the children of Abihail the son of Huri,
the son of Jaroah, the son of Gilead, the son of Michael, the son of
Jeshishai, the son of Jahdo, the son of Buz; |
| Ahi the son of Abdiel, the son of Guni, chief of the
house of their fathers. |
| And they dwelt in Gilead in Bashan, and in her
towns, and in all the suburbs of Sharon, upon their borders. |
| All these were reckoned by genealogies in the days
of Jotham king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam king of Israel. |
| The sons of Reuben, and the Gadites, and half the
tribe of Manasseh, of valiant men, men able to bear buckler and sword,
and to shoot with bow, and skilful in war, were four and forty thousand
seven hundred and threescore, that went out to the war. |
| And they made war with the Hagarites, with Jetur,
and Nephish, and Nodab. |
| And they were helped against them, and the Hagarites
were delivered into their hand, and all that were with them: for they
cried to God in the battle, and he was entreated of them; because they
put their trust in him. |
| And they took away their cattle; of their camels
fifty thousand, and of sheep two hundred and fifty thousand, and of
asses two thousand, and of men an hundred thousand. |
| For there fell down many slain, because the war was
of God. And they dwelt in their steads until the captivity. |
| And the children of the half tribe of Manasseh dwelt
in the land: they increased from Bashan unto Baalhermon and Senir, and
unto mount Hermon. |
| And these were the heads of the house of their
fathers, even Epher, and Ishi, and Eliel, and Azriel, and Jeremiah, and
Hodaviah, and Jahdiel, mighty men of valour, famous men, and heads of
the house of their fathers. |
| And they transgressed against the God of their
fathers, and went a whoring after the gods of the people of the land,
whom God destroyed before them. |
| And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul
king of Assyria, and the spirit of Tilgathpilneser king of Assyria, and
he carried them away, even the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half
tribe of Manasseh, and brought them unto Halah, and Habor, and Hara, and
to the river Gozan, unto this day. |

tabernacle of the congregation with singing, until Solomon had built the
house of the LORD in Jerusalem: and then they waited on their office
