1 Chronicles 4:8-22

8Koz fathered Anub and Zobebah, and the families of Aharhel, the son of Harum. 9Jabez was more honorable than his brothers, and his mother named him Jabez, saying, “Because I gave birth to him in pain.” 10Now Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, “Oh that You would greatly bless me and extend my border, and that Your hand might be with me, and that You would 1keep me from harm so that it would not hurt me!” And God brought about what he requested.

11Chelub the brother of Shuhah fathered Mehir, who was the father of Eshton. 12Eshton fathered Beth-rapha and Paseah, and Tehinnah the father of 2Ir-nahash. These are the men of Recah.

13Now the sons of Kenaz were Othniel and Seraiah. And the sons of Othniel were Hathath and Meonothai. 14Meonothai fathered Ophrah, and Seraiah fathered Joab the father of 3Ge-harashim, for they were craftsmen. 15The sons of Caleb the son of Jephunneh were Iru, Elah, and Naam; and the 4son of Elah was 5Kenaz. 16The sons of Jehallelel were Ziph and Ziphah, Tiria and Asarel. 17The 6sons of Ezrah were Jether, Mered, Epher, and Jalon. And Mered’s wife conceived and gave birth to 7Miriam, Shammai, and Ishbah the father of Eshtemoa. 18(His Jewish wife gave birth to Jered, the father of Gedor, Heber the father of Soco, and Jekuthiel the father of Zanoah.) 8These were the sons of Bithia the daughter of Pharaoh, whom Mered 9married. 19The sons of the wife of Hodiah, the sister of Naham, were the 10fathers of Keilah the Garmite and Eshtemoa the Maacathite. 20The sons of Shimon were Amnon and Rinnah, and Benhanan and Tilon. And the sons of Ishi were Zoheth and Ben-zoheth. 21The sons of Shelah the son of Judah were Er the father of Lecah and Laadah the father of Mareshah, and the families of the house of the linen workers at Beth-ashbea; 22and Jokim, the men of Cozeba, Joash, Saraph, who ruled in Moab, and Jashubi-lehem. And the 11records are ancient.
