1 Chronicles 4:24-37

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

25Shallum was Shaul’s son, Mibsam his son and Mishma his son.

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

27Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters, but his brothers did not have many children; so their entire clan did not become as numerous as the people of Judah.

28They lived in Beersheba, Moladah, Hazar Shual,

29Bilhah, Ezem, Tolad,

30Bethuel, Hormah, Ziklag,

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

32Their surrounding villages were Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Token and Ashan—five towns—

33and all the villages around these towns as far as Baalath. These were their settlements. And they kept a genealogical record.

34Meshobab, Jamlech, Joshah son of Amaziah,

35Joel, Jehu son of Joshibiah, the son of Seraiah, the son of Asiel,

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

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