1 Chronicles 4:27-39
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).
38These who are named above were the leaders of their clans. Their extended families increased greatly in numbers.
39They went to the entrance of Gedor, to the east of the valley, looking for pasture for their sheep.
