1 Chronicles 5:1-3

1Now the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel—he was indeed the firstborn, but because he defiled his father’s bed, his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph, the son of Israel, so that the genealogy is not listed according to the birthright;

2yet Judah prevailed over his brothers, and from him came a ruler, although the birthright was Joseph’s—

3the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel were Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.
