1 Chronicles 4:8-10

Good News Translation

⁸ Koz was the father of Anub and Zobebah, and the ancestor of the clans descended from Aharhel son of Harum.

⁹ There was a man named Jabez, who was the most respected member of his family. His mother had given him the name Jabez,^[a] because his birth had been very painful. ¹⁰ But Jabez prayed to the God of Israel, “Bless me, God, and give me much land. Be with me and keep me from anything evil that might cause me pain.” And God gave him what he prayed for.
