14One of the sons of Manasseh was Asriel, whom she bore; his Aramean concubine bore Machir the father of Gilead.

15Machir took a wife from Huppim and Shuppim. His sister’s name was Maacah. The name of the second was Zelophehad, and Zelophehad had daughters.

16Machir’s wife Maacah bore a son and she named him Peresh. His brother’s name was Sheresh, and his sons were Ulam and Rekem.

17Ulam’s son was Bedan. These were the sons of Gilead son of Machir, son of Manasseh.

21Zabad his son and Shuthelah his son, also Ezer and Elead. The native-born men of Gath killed them because they came down to raid their cattle.

22Their father Ephraim mourned many days, and his brothers came to comfort him.

23Then he went in to his wife, and she conceived and bore a son and he called him Beriah , because evil had befallen his house.

24His daughter was Sheerah, who built both lower and upper Beth-horon, and also Uzzen-sheerah.
