1 Chronicles 4:24-37

24The descendants of Simeon: Nemuel, Jamin, Jarib, Zerah, Shaul,

25his son Shallum, his son Mibsam, and his son Mishma.

26The descendants of Mishma: His son Hammuel, his son Zaccur, and his son Shimei.

27Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters. But his brothers did not have many sons, so their whole clan was not as numerous as the sons of Judah.

28They lived in Beer Sheba, Moladah, Hazar Shual,

29Bilhah, Ezem, Tolad,

30Bethuel, Hormah, Ziklag,

31Beth Marcaboth, Hazar Susim, Beth Biri, and Shaaraim. These were their towns until the reign of David.

32Their settlements also included Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Tochen, and Ashan – five towns.

33They also lived in all the settlements that surrounded these towns as far as Baal. These were their settlements; they kept genealogical records.

34Their clan leaders were: Meshobab, Jamlech, Joshah son of Amaziah,

35Joel, Jehu son of Joshibiah (son of Seraiah, son of Asiel),

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

37Ziza son of Shipi (son of Allon, son of Jedaiah, son of Shimri, son of Shemaiah).
