1 Chronicles 2:9-41
9Also the sons of Hezron who were born to him were Jerahmeel, Ram, and Chelubai.
10Ram begot Amminadab, and Amminadab begot Nahshon, leader of the children of Judah;
11Nahshon begot Salma, and Salma begot Boaz;
12Boaz begot Obed, and Obed begot Jesse;
13Jesse begot Eliab his firstborn, Abinadab the second, Shimea the third,
14Nethanel the fourth, Raddai the fifth,
15Ozem the sixth, and David the seventh.
16Now their sisters were Zeruiah and Abigail. And the sons of Zeruiah were Abishai, Joab, and Asahel—three.
17Abigail bore Amasa; and the father of Amasa was Jether the Ishmaelite.
18Caleb the son of Hezron had children by Azubah, his wife, and by Jerioth. Now these were her sons: Jesher, Shobab, and Ardon.
19When Azubah died, Caleb took Ephrath as his wife, who bore him Hur.
20And Hur begot Uri, and Uri begot Bezalel.
21Now afterward Hezron went in to the daughter of Machir the father of Gilead, whom he married when he was sixty years old; and she bore him Segub.
22Segub begot Jair, who had twenty-three cities in the land of Gilead.
23(Geshur and Syria took from them the towns of Jair, with Kenath and its towns—sixty towns.) All these belonged to the sons of Machir the father of Gilead.
24After Hezron died in Caleb Ephrathah, Hezron’s wife Abijah bore him Ashhur the father of Tekoa.
25The sons of Jerahmeel, the firstborn of Hezron, were Ram, the firstborn, and Bunah, Oren, Ozem, and Ahijah.
26Jerahmeel had another wife, whose name was Atarah; she was the mother of Onam.
27The sons of Ram, the firstborn of Jerahmeel, were Maaz, Jamin, and Eker.
28The sons of Onam were Shammai and Jada. The sons of Shammai were Nadab and Abishur.
29And the name of the wife of Abishur was Abihail, and she bore him Ahban and Molid.
30The sons of Nadab were Seled and Appaim; Seled died without children.
31The son of Appaim was Ishi, the son of Ishi was Sheshan, and Sheshan’s son was Ahlai.
32The sons of Jada, the brother of Shammai, were Jether and Jonathan; Jether died without children.
33The sons of Jonathan were Peleth and Zaza. These were the sons of Jerahmeel.
34Now Sheshan had no sons, only daughters. And Sheshan had an Egyptian servant whose name was Jarha.
35Sheshan gave his daughter to Jarha his servant as wife, and she bore him Attai.
36Attai begot Nathan, and Nathan begot Zabad;
37Zabad begot Ephlal, and Ephlal begot Obed;
38Obed begot Jehu, and Jehu begot Azariah;
39Azariah begot Helez, and Helez begot Eleasah;
40Eleasah begot Sismai, and Sismai begot Shallum;
41Shallum begot Jekamiah, and Jekamiah begot Elishama.
