1 Chronicles 4:24-37

24Simeon's descendants were: Nemuel, Jamin, Jarib, Zerah and Shaul.

25Shaul's son was Shallum. Shallum's son was Mibsam. Mibsam's son was Mishma.

26Mishma's descendants were his son Hammuel, Hammuel's son Zaccur, and Zaccur's son Shimei.

27Shimei had 16 sons and six daughters. But his brothers did not have many children. So their clan did not become as large as the people of Judah's tribe.

28Shimei's descendants lived in these cities and towns: Beersheba, Moladah, Hazar-Shual,

29Bilhah, Ezem, Tolad,

30Bethuel, Hormah, Ziklag,

31Beth-Marcaboth, Hazar-Susim, Beth-Biri and Shaaraim. They lived in those places until David became king.

32They also lived in these five villages: Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Token and Ashan.

33There were also other villages round the same towns, as far as Baalath town. Those were the places where they lived. They wrote down a list of the names of their ancestors.

34The leaders of their clans were: Meshobab, Jamlech, Amaziah's son Joshah,

35Joel, Jehu (son of Joshibiah, who was the son of Seraiah and grandson of Asiel),

36Elioenai, Jaakobah, Jeshohaiah, Asaiah, Adiel, Jesimiel, Benaiah

37and Ziza. Ziza was the son of Shiphi, who was the son of Allon and grandson of Jedaiah. Jedaiah was the son of Shimri and grandson of Shemaiah.
