New Living Translation
1 Chronicles 4:24-37
24The sons of Simeon were Jemuel, Jamin, Jarib, Zohar, and Shaul.
25The descendants of Shaul were Shallum, Mibsam, and Mishma.
26The descendants of Mishma were Hammuel, Zaccur, and Shimei.
27Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters, but none of his brothers had large families. So Simeon’s tribe never grew as large as the tribe of Judah.
28They lived in Beersheba, Moladah, Hazar-shual,
29Bilhah, Ezem, Tolad,
30Bethuel, Hormah, Ziklag,
31Beth-marcaboth, Hazar-susim, Beth-biri, and Shaaraim. These towns were under their control until the time of King David.
32Their descendants also lived in Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Token, and Ashan—five towns
33and their surrounding villages as far away as Baalath. This was their territory, and these names are listed in their genealogical records.
34Other descendants of Simeon included Meshobab, Jamlech, Joshah son of Amaziah,
35Joel, Jehu son of Joshibiah, son of Seraiah, son of Asiel,
36Elioenai, Jaakobah, Jeshohaiah, Asaiah, Adiel, Jesimiel, Benaiah,
37and Ziza son of Shiphi, son of Allon, son of Jedaiah, son of Shimri, son of Shemaiah.
