1 Chronicles 7:14-29
14The sons of Manasseh: Asriel, whom his Aramean concubine bore; she gave birth to Machir the father of Gilead.
15Machir took as a wife the sister of Huppim and Shuppim; her name was Maacah. The name of a second [descendant, the first being Gilead], was Zelophehad; and Zelophehad had [only] daughters.
16Maacah the wife of Machir gave birth to a son; she named him Peresh. The name of his brother was Sheresh; his sons were Ulam and Rakem.
17The son of Ulam: Bedan. These were the sons of Gilead the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh.
18His sister Hammolecheth gave birth to Ishhod and Abiezer and Mahlah.
19The sons of Shemida were: Ahian, Shechem, Likhi, and Aniam.
20The sons of Ephraim: Shuthelah and Bered his son, Tahath [I] his son, Eleadah his son, Tahath [II] his son,
21Zabad his son, Shuthelah his son, and Ezer and Elead were killed by men who were natives of Gath, because they came down to take their livestock.
22Their father Ephraim mourned for many days, and his relatives came to comfort him.
23Then he went in to his wife, and she conceived and gave birth to a son, and he named him Beriah (on misfortune), because tragedy had come on his house.
24Beriah’s daughter was Sheerah, who built both Lower and Upper Beth-horon, and also Uzzen-sheerah.
25Rephah was his son along with Resheph; Resheph’s son was Telah, Tahan his son,
26Ladan his son, Ammihud his son, Elishama his son,
27Non (Nun) his son, and Joshua [Moses’ successor] his son.
28Their possessions and settlements were Bethel and its towns, and eastward Naaran, and westward Gezer, and Shechem, and as far as Ayyah with all their towns,
29and along the borders of the sons of Manasseh, Beth-shean, Taanach, Megiddo, Dor, with all their towns. In these [places] lived the sons of Joseph the son of Israel (Jacob).
