Altri discendenti di Giuda
4 (A)I figli di Giuda furono: Perez, Chesron, Carmi, Cur e Sobal.
2 Reaia, figlio di Sobal, generò Iaat; Iaat generò Aumai e Laad. Queste sono le famiglie dei Soratei.
3 Questi furono i discendenti del padre di Etam: Izreel, Isma e Idbas; la loro sorella si chiamava Aselelponi. 4 Penuel fu padre di Ghedor; ed Ezer, padre di Cusa. Questi sono i figli di Cur, primogenito di Efrata, padre di Betlemme.
5 Asur, padre di Tecoa, ebbe due mogli: Chelea e Naara. 6 Naara gli partorì Auzam, Chefer, Temeni e Aastari. Questi sono i figli di Naara. 7 I figli di Chelea furono: Seret, Iesocar ed Etnan.
8 Cos generò Anub, Assobeba e le famiglie di Aarel, figlio di Arum. 9 Iabes fu più onorato dei suoi fratelli; sua madre lo aveva chiamato Iabes, perché diceva: «L’ho partorito con dolore». 10 Iabes invocò il Dio d’Israele, dicendo: «Benedicimi, ti prego; allarga i miei confini; sia la tua mano con me e preservami dal male in modo che io non debba soffrire!» E Dio gli concesse quanto aveva chiesto.
11 Chelub, fratello di Suca, generò Meir, che fu padre di Eston. 12 Eston generò Bet-Rafa, Pasea e Teinna, padre di Ir-Naas. Questa è la gente di Reca.
13 I figli di Chenaz furono: Otniel e Seraia. I figli di Otniel furono: Catat e Meonotai. 14 Meonotai generò Ofra. Seraia generò Ioab, padre degli abitanti della valle degli artigiani, perché erano artigiani.
15 I figli di Caleb, figlio di Gefunne, furono: Iru, Ela e Naam. Il figlio di Ela fu Chenaz. 16 I figli di Ieallelel furono: Zif, Zifa, Tiria e Asareel.
17 I figli di Esdra furono: Ieter, Mered, Efer e Ialon. La moglie di Mered partorì Miriam, Sammai e Isba, padre di Estemoa. 18 L’altra sua moglie, la Giudea, partorì Iered, padre di Ghedor, Eber, padre di Soco e Iecutiel, padre di Zanoa. Quelli nominati prima erano figli di Bitia, figlia del faraone, che Mered aveva presa in moglie.
19 I figli della moglie di Odiia, sorella di Naam, furono: il padre di Cheila, il Garmeo, ed Estemoa, il Maacateo.
20 I figli di Simon furono: Amnon, Rinna, Benanan e Tilon. I figli di Isi furono: Zozet e Ben-Zoet.
21 I figli di Sela, figlio di Giuda, furono: Er, padre di Leca; Lada, padre di Maresa; le famiglie della casa dove si lavora il bisso di Bet-Asbea; 22 Iochim e la gente di Cozeba; Ioas e Saraf, che dominarono Moab, e Iasubi-Leem. Ma queste sono cose d’antica data. 23 Erano dei vasai e stavano a Netaim e a Ghedera; stavano là presso il re per lavorare al suo servizio.
Discendenti di Simeone
24 (B)I figli di Simeone furono: Nemuel, Iamin, Iarib, Zera, Saul, 25 che ebbe per figlio Sallum, che ebbe per figlio Mibsan, che ebbe per figlio Misma. 26 Il figlio di Misma fu Ammuel, che ebbe per figlio Zaccur, che ebbe per figlio Simei. 27 Simei ebbe sedici figli e sei figlie; ma i suoi fratelli non ebbero molti figli, e le loro famiglie non si moltiplicarono quanto quelle dei figli di Giuda. 28 Si stabilirono a Beer-Sceba, a Molada, ad Asar-Sual, 29 a Bila, a Esem, a Tolad, 30 a Betuel, a Corma, a Siclag, 31 a Bet-Marcabot, ad Asar-Susim, a Bet-Biri e a Saaraim. Queste furono le loro città, fino al regno di Davide. 32 Avevano pure i villaggi di Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Tochen e Asan – cinque città – 33 e tutti i villaggi che erano nei dintorni di quelle città, fino a Baal. Queste furono le loro sedi e le loro genealogie.
34 Mesobab, Iamlec, Iosa, figlio di Amasia, 35 Ioel, Ieu, figlio di Iosibia, figlio di Seraia, figlio di Asiel, 36 Elioenai, Iaacoba, Iesoaia, Asaia, Adiel, Iesimiel, Benaia, 37 Ziza, figlio di Sifi, figlio di Allon, figlio di Iedaia, figlio di Simri, figlio di Semaia; 38 questi uomini, enumerati per nome, erano capi nelle loro famiglie e le loro case patriarcali si accrebbero molto. 39 Andarono dal lato di Ghedor, fino a oriente della valle, in cerca di pascoli per il loro bestiame. 40 Trovarono pascoli grassi e buoni e un paese vasto, quieto e tranquillo; poiché quelli che lo abitavano prima erano discendenti di Cam. 41 Questi uomini, ricordati più sopra per nome, giunsero al tempo di Ezechia, re di Giuda; fecero man bassa sulle loro tende e sui Maoniti che si trovavano là e li votarono allo sterminio, fino a oggi; poi si stabilirono laggiù al posto di quelli, perché c’erano pascoli per il bestiame.
42 Una parte di questi figli di Simeone, cinquecento uomini, andarono verso il monte Seir, sotto la guida di Pelatia, Nearia, Refaia ed Uziel, figli di Isi; 43 distrussero gli Amalechiti superstiti e si stabilirono in quel luogo, dove sono rimasti fino a oggi.

The Family of Judah
4 The sons of Judah were (A)Perez, Hezron, [a]Carmi, Hur, and Shobal. 2 And [b]Reaiah the son of Shobal begot Jahath, and Jahath begot Ahumai and Lahad. These were the families of the Zorathites. 3 These were the sons of the father of Etam: Jezreel, Ishma, and Idbash; and the name of their sister was Hazelelponi; 4 and Penuel was the father of Gedor, and Ezer was the father of Hushah.
These were the sons of (B)Hur, the firstborn of Ephrathah the father of Bethlehem.
5 And (C)Ashhur the father of Tekoa had two wives, Helah and Naarah. 6 Naarah bore him Ahuzzam, Hepher, Temeni, and Haahashtari. These were the sons of Naarah. 7 The sons of Helah were Zereth, Zohar, and Ethnan; 8 and Koz begot Anub, Zobebah, and the families of Aharhel the son of Harum.
9 Now Jabez was (D)more honorable than his brothers, and his mother called his name [c]Jabez, saying, “Because I bore him in pain.” 10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, “Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my [d]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.
11 Chelub the brother of (E)Shuhah begot Mehir, who was the father of Eshton. 12 And Eshton begot Beth-Rapha, Paseah, and Tehinnah the father of [e]Ir-Nahash. These were the men of Rechah.
13 The sons of Kenaz were (F)Othniel and Seraiah. The sons of Othniel were [f]Hathath, 14 and Meonothai who begot Ophrah. Seraiah begot Joab the father of (G)Ge Harashim,[g] for they were craftsmen. 15 The sons of (H)Caleb the son of Jephunneh were Iru, Elah, and Naam. The son of Elah was [h]Kenaz. 16 The sons of Jehallelel were Ziph, Ziphah, Tiria, and Asarel. 17 The sons of Ezrah were Jether, Mered, Epher, and Jalon. And [i]Mered’s wife bore Miriam, Shammai, and Ishbah the father of Eshtemoa. 18 ([j]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.
19 The sons of Hodiah’s wife, the sister of Naham, were the fathers of Keilah the Garmite and of Eshtemoa the (I)Maachathite. 20 And the sons of Shimon were Amnon, Rinnah, Ben-Hanan, and Tilon. And the sons of Ishi were Zoheth and Ben-Zoheth.
21 The sons of (J)Shelah (K)the 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; 22 also Jokim, the men of Chozeba, and Joash; Saraph, who ruled in Moab, and Jashubi-Lehem. Now the [k]records are ancient. 23 These were the potters and those who dwell at [l]Netaim and [m]Gederah; there they dwelt with the king for his work.
The Family of Simeon(L)
24 The (M)sons of Simeon were [n]Nemuel, Jamin, [o]Jarib, [p]Zerah, and Shaul, 25 Shallum his son, Mibsam his son, and Mishma his son. 26 And the sons of Mishma were Hamuel his son, Zacchur his son, and Shimei his son. 27 Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters; but his brothers did not have many children, (N)nor did any of their families multiply as much as the children of Judah.
28 They dwelt at Beersheba, Moladah, Hazar Shual, 29 [q]Bilhah, Ezem, [r]Tolad, 30 Bethuel, Hormah, Ziklag, 31 Beth Marcaboth, [s]Hazar Susim, Beth Biri, and at Shaaraim. These were their cities until the reign of David. 32 And their villages were [t]Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Tochen, and Ashan—five cities— 33 and all the villages that were around these cities as far as [u]Baal. These were their dwelling places, and they maintained their genealogy: 34 Meshobab, Jamlech, and Joshah the son of Amaziah; 35 Joel, and Jehu the son of Joshibiah, the son of Seraiah, the son of Asiel; 36 Elioenai, Jaakobah, Jeshohaiah, Asaiah, Adiel, Jesimiel, and Benaiah; 37 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 name were leaders in their families, and their father’s house increased greatly.
39 So they went to the entrance of Gedor, as far as the east side of the valley, to seek pasture for their flocks. 40 And they found rich, good pasture, and the land was broad, quiet, and peaceful; for some Hamites formerly lived there.
41 These recorded by name came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah; and they (O)attacked[v] their tents and the Meunites who were found there, and (P)utterly destroyed them, as it is to this day. So they dwelt in their place, because there was pasture for their flocks there. 42 Now 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. 43 And they [w]defeated (Q)the rest of the Amalekites who had escaped. They have dwelt there to this day.

3 These were the sons[a] of Etam:
Jezreel, Ishma and Idbash. Their sister was named Hazzelelponi. 4 Penuel was the father of Gedor, and Ezer the father of Hushah.

7 The sons of Helah:
Zereth, Zohar, Ethnan, 8 and Koz, who was the father of Anub and Hazzobebah and of the clans of Aharhel son of Harum.
9 Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez,[c] saying, “I gave birth to him in pain.” 10 Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted his request.
11 Kelub, Shuhah’s brother, was the father of Mehir, who was the father of Eshton. 12 Eshton was the father of Beth Rapha, Paseah and Tehinnah the father of Ir Nahash.[d] These were the men of Rekah.
13 The sons of Kenaz:
Othniel(F) and Seraiah.
The sons of Othniel:
Hathath and Meonothai.[e] 14 Meonothai was the father of Ophrah.
Seraiah was the father of Joab,
the father of Ge Harashim.[f] It was called this because its people were skilled workers.
15 The sons of Caleb son of Jephunneh:
Iru, Elah and Naam.
The son of Elah:
Kenaz.
16 The sons of Jehallelel:
Ziph, Ziphah, Tiria and Asarel.
17 The sons of Ezrah:
Jether, Mered, Epher and Jalon. One of Mered’s wives gave birth to Miriam,(G) Shammai and Ishbah the father of Eshtemoa. 18 (His wife from the tribe of Judah gave birth to Jered the father of Gedor, Heber the father of Soko, and Jekuthiel the father of Zanoah.(H)) These were the children of Pharaoh’s daughter Bithiah, whom Mered had married.
19 The sons of Hodiah’s wife, the sister of Naham:

21 The sons of Shelah(K) son of Judah:
Er the father of Lekah, Laadah the father of Mareshah and the clans of the linen workers at Beth Ashbea, 22 Jokim, the men of Kozeba, and Joash and Saraph, who ruled in Moab and Jashubi Lehem. (These records are from ancient times.) 23 They were the potters who lived at Netaim and Gederah; they stayed there and worked for the king.
Simeon(L)
24 The descendants of Simeon:(M)
Nemuel, Jamin, Jarib,(N) Zerah and Shaul;
25 Shallum was Shaul’s son, Mibsam his son and Mishma his son.
26 The descendants of Mishma:
Hammuel his son, Zakkur his son and Shimei his son.
27 Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters, but his brothers did not have many children; so their entire clan did not become as numerous as the people of Judah. 28 They lived in Beersheba,(O) Moladah,(P) Hazar Shual, 29 Bilhah, Ezem,(Q) Tolad, 30 Bethuel, Hormah,(R) Ziklag,(S) 31 Beth Markaboth, Hazar Susim, Beth Biri and Shaaraim.(T) These were their towns until the reign of David. 32 Their surrounding villages were Etam, Ain,(U) Rimmon, Token and Ashan(V)—five towns— 33 and all the villages around these towns as far as Baalath.[g] These were their settlements. And they kept a genealogical record.
34 Meshobab, Jamlech, Joshah son of Amaziah, 35 Joel, Jehu son of Joshibiah, the son of Seraiah, the son of Asiel, 36 also Elioenai, Jaakobah, Jeshohaiah, Asaiah, Adiel, Jesimiel, Benaiah, 37 and Ziza son of Shiphi, the son of Allon, the son of Jedaiah, the son of Shimri, the son of Shemaiah.
38 The men listed above by name were leaders of their clans. Their families increased greatly, 39 and they went to the outskirts of Gedor(W) to the east of the valley in search of pasture for their flocks. 40 They found rich, good pasture, and the land was spacious, peaceful and quiet.(X) Some Hamites had lived there formerly.
41 The men whose names were listed came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah. They attacked the Hamites in their dwellings and also the Meunites(Y) who were there and completely destroyed[h] them, as is evident to this day. Then they settled in their place, because there was pasture for their flocks. 42 And five hundred of these Simeonites, led by Pelatiah, Neariah, Rephaiah and Uzziel, the sons of Ishi, invaded the hill country of Seir.(Z) 43 They killed the remaining Amalekites(AA) who had escaped, and they have lived there to this day.
