Context of 1 Chronicles 4:12

10Jabez prayed to Israel's God for help. He said, ‘Please bless me very much and give me more land. Please take care of me so that nothing hurts me and I do not have pain.’ God did what Jabez had prayed for. 11Kelub, Shuhah's brother, became the father of Mehir. Mehir became the father of Eshton. Eshton became the father of Beth-Rapha, Paseah and Tehinnah. Tehinnah became the father of Ir-Nahash. Those people lived at Recah. 13The sons of Kenaz were: Othniel and Seraiah. Othniel's sons were: Hathath and Meonothai. 14Meonothai became the father of Ophrah. Seraiah became the father of Joab. Joab was the ancestor of the people who live in Ge-Harashim. Those people had special skills to make things.
