1 Chronicles 5:9-18

9while in the east they settled as far as the entrance of the wilderness from this side of the river Euphrates, because their cattle had multiplied in the land of Gilead.

10Now in the days of Saul they had made war with the Hagrites, who fell by their hand. So they lived in their encampments in the entire eastern area of Gilead.

11Now the sons of Gad lived opposite them in the land of Bashan as far as Salcah:

12Joel the leader, Shapham second, then Janai and Shaphat in Bashan.

13Their kinsmen according to their ancestral families: Michael, Meshullam, Sheba, Jorai, Jacan, Zia and Eber—seven in all.

14These were the sons of Abihail son of Huri, son of Jaroah, son of Gilead, son of Michael, son of Jehishai, son of Jahdo, son of Buz.

15Ahi son of Abdiel, son of Guni was leader of their ancestral families.

16They lived in Gilead, in Bashan and its surrounding villages, and in all the pasturelands of Sharon, up to their borders.

17All these were recorded by genealogies in the days of Jotham king of Judah and in the days of Jeroboam king of Israel.

18The sons of Reuben and the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh had 44,760 warriors ready for war—men who carried shield and sword and drew the bow, and were skilled in battle.
