1 Chronicles 5:9-18
9They also settled in the east as far as the edge of the desert that extends to the Euphrates River, because their herds had increased in the land of Gilead.
10During Saul’s reign they waged war against the Hagrites, who were defeated by their power. And they lived in their tents throughout the region east of Gilead.
11The sons of Gad lived next to them in the land of Bashan as far as Salecah:
12Joel the chief, Shapham the second in command, Janai, and Shaphat in Bashan.
13Their relatives according to their ancestral houses: Michael, Meshullam, Sheba, Jorai, Jacan, Zia, and Eber — seven.
14These were the sons of Abihail son of Huri, son of Jaroah, son of Gilead, son of Michael, son of Jeshishai, son of Jahdo, son of Buz.
15Ahi son of Abdiel, son of Guni, was head of their ancestral family.
16They lived in Gilead, in Bashan and its surrounding villages, and throughout the pasturelands of Sharon.
17All of them were registered in the genealogies during the reigns of Judah’s King Jotham and Israel’s King Jeroboam.
18The descendants of Reuben and Gad and half the tribe of Manasseh had 44,760 warriors who could serve in the army — men who carried shield and sword, drew the bow, and were trained for war.
