1 Chronicles 5:1-10

1Now the sonsH1121 of ReubenH7205 the firstbornH1060 of IsraelH3478, (for he was the firstbornH1060; but, forasmuch as he defiledH2490 his father’sH1 bedH3326, his birthrightH1062 was givenH5414 unto the sonsH1121 of JosephH3130 the sonH1121 of IsraelH3478: and the genealogy is not to be reckonedH3187 after the birthrightH1062.

2For JudahH3063 prevailedH1396 above his brethrenH251, and of him came the chief rulerH5057; but the birthrightH1062 was Joseph’sH3130:)1

3The sonsH1121, I say, of ReubenH7205 the firstbornH1060 of IsraelH3478 were, HanochH2585, and PalluH6396, HezronH2696, and CarmiH3756.

4The sonsH1121 of JoelH3100; ShemaiahH8098 his sonH1121, GogH1463 his sonH1121, ShimeiH8096 his sonH1121,

5MicahH4318 his sonH1121, ReaiaH7211 his sonH1121, BaalH1168 his sonH1121,

6BeerahH880 his sonH1121, whom Tilgath–pilneserH8407 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 carried awayH1540 captive: he was princeH5387 of the ReubenitesH7206.2

7And his brethrenH251 by their familiesH4940, when the genealogyH3187 of their generationsH8435 was reckonedH3187, were the chiefH7218, JeielH3273, and ZechariahH2148,

8And BelaH1106 the sonH1121 of AzazH5811, the sonH1121 of ShemaH8087, the sonH1121 of JoelH3100, who dweltH3427 in AroerH6177, even unto NeboH5015 and Baal–meonH1186:3

9And eastwardH4217 he inhabitedH3427 unto the enteringH935 in of the wildernessH4057 from the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578: because their cattleH4735 were multipliedH7235 in the landH776 of GileadH1568.

10And in the daysH3117 of SaulH7586 they madeH6213 warH4421 with the HagaritesH1905, who fellH5307 by their handH3027: and they dweltH3427 in their tentsH168 throughoutH6440 all the eastH4217 land of GileadH1568.4
