1 Chronicles - ch 4 v 21 - 40
- The sons of Shelah the son of Judah: Er the father of Lechah, and Laadah the father of Mareshah, and the families of the house of byssus-workers, of the house of Ashbea,
- and Jokim, and the men of Chozeba, and Joash, and Saraph, who ruled over Moab, and Jashubi-lehem. And these are ancient things.
- These were the potters, and those that abode among plantations and enclosures: there they dwelt with the king for his work.
- The sons of Simeon: Nemuel and Jamin, Jarib, Zerah, and Saul;
- Shallum his son, Mibsam his son, Mishma his son.
- And the sons of Mishma: Hammuel his son, Zaccur his son, Shimei his son;
- and Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters. And his brethren had not many sons; neither did all their family multiply like to the sons of Judah.
- And they abode at Beer-sheba, and Moladah, and Hazar-Shual,
- and at Bilhah, and at Ezem, and at Tolad,
- and at Bethuel, and at Hormah, and at Ziklag,
- and at Beth-marcaboth, and Hazar-susim, and at Beth-biri, and at Shaaraim. These were their cities until the reign of David.
- And their villages were Etam and Ain, Rimmon and Tochen, and Ashan, five cities;
- and all their villages that were round about these cities, as far as Baal. These were their habitations and their genealogical register.
- And Meshobab, and Jamlech, and Joshah the son of Amaziah,
- and Joel, and Jehu the son of Josibiah, the son of Seraiah, the son of Asiel,
- and Elioenai, and Jaakobah, and Jeshohaiah, and Asaiah, and Adiel, and Jesimiel, and Benaiah,
- and Ziza the son of Shiphi, the son of Allon, the son of Jedaiah, the son of Shimri, the son of Shemaiah:
- these mentioned by name were princes in their families; and their fathers' houses increased greatly.
- And they went to the entrance of Gedor, as far as the east side of the valley, to seek pasture for their flocks.
- And they found fat and good pasture, and a land widely extended and quiet and fertile, for they who had dwelt there formerly were of Ham.
