Kini si Koz amahan ni Anub ug ni Zobeba, ug siya ang katigulangan sa pamilya ni Aharhel nga anak ni Harum.
9 May usa ka tawo nga ginganlag Jabez. Mas tinahod siya kaysa iyang mga igsoong lalaki. Ginganlan siya sa iyang inahan ug Jabez,[c] kay ingon sa iyang inahan, “Naglisod gayod ako sa pagpanganak kaniya.” 10 Nagaampo si Jabez sa Dios sa Israel: “Hinaut nga panalanginan mo ako ug palapdon mo ang akong teritoryo. Ubani ako ug ilikay sa mga katalagman aron dili ako masakitan.” Ug gitubag sa Dios ang iyang hangyo.

Si Joab ang nagpundar sa Kapatagan sa mga Panday.[g] Gitawag kini nga Kapatagan sa mga Panday tungod kay didto nagpuyo ang daghang mga panday.
15 Mao kini ang mga anak ni Caleb nga anak ni Jefune: sila si Iru, Elah, ug Naam. Ang anak ni Elah mao si Kenaz.
16 Ang mga anak ni Jehalelel mao sila si Zif, Zifa, Tiria, ug Asarel.
17-18 Ang mga anak ni Ezra mao sila si Jeter, Mered, Efer, ug Jalon. Si Mered may asawa nga si Bitia nga anak sa hari sa Ehipto.[h] May mga anak sila nga si Miriam, Shamai, ug Ishba. Si Ishba amahan ni Eshtemoa. May asawa usab si Mered nga taga-Juda ug may anak sila nga si Jered (nga amahan ni Gedor), Heber (nga amahan ni Soco), ug si Jekutiel (nga amahan ni Zanoa). 19 Gipangasawa ni Hodia ang igsoon ni Naham. Ang usa sa ilang mga anak mao ang amahan ni Keila nga Garminhon, ug ang usa mao ang amahan ni Eshtemoa nga Maacatnon.
20 Ang mga anak ni Shimon mao sila si Amnon, Rina, Ben Hanan, ug Tilon.
Ang mga kaliwat ni Ishi mao si Zohet ug si Ben Zohet.

(Kini nga lista gikan sa karaang mga dokumento.) 23 Sila ang mga magkukolon nga nagpuyo sa Netaim ug Gedera. Nagatrabaho sila alang sa hari.
Ang mga Kaliwat ni Simeon
24 Ang mga anak ni Simeon mao sila si Nemuel, Jamin, Jarib, Zera, ug Shaul. 25 Si Shaul amahan ni Shalum, si Shalum amahan ni Mibsam, ug si Mibsam amahan ni Mishma. 26 Si Mishma amahan ni Hamuel, si Hamuel amahan ni Zacur, ug si Zacur amahan ni Shimei. 27 May 16 ka mga anak nga lalaki si Shimei ug unom ka mga anak nga babaye. Apan gamay ra ang mga anak sa iyang mga igsoon, busa ang ilang tribo dili sama kadaghan sa katawhan sa Juda. 28 Nagpuyo sila sa Beersheba, Molada, Hazar Shual, 29 Bilha, Ezem, Tolad, 30 Betuel, Horma, Ziklag, 31 Bet Markabot, Hazar Susim, Bet Biri, ug Shaaraim. Mao kini ang ilang mga lungsod hangtod sa paghari ni David. 32 Nagpuyo usab sila sa lima ka lungsod sa Etam, Ain, Rimon, Token, ug Ashan, 33 ug lakip usab sa mga baryo sa palibot niini nga mga lungsod hangtod sa Baalat.[i] Mao kini ang mga dapit nga ilang gipuy-an, ug aduna silay gitipigang listahan sa ilang mga kaliwat.
Mao kini ang uban pa nga mga kaliwat ni Simeon: 34 sila si Meshobab, Jamlec, Josha (nga anak ni Amazia), 35 Joel, Jehu (nga anak ni Joshibia ug apo ni Seraya, ug apo sa tuhod ni Aziel), 36 Elioenai, Jaakoba, Jeshohaya, Asaya, Adiel, Jesimiel, Benaya, 37 ug Ziza (nga anak ni Shifi ug apo ni Alon, ug apo sa tuhod ni Jedaya. Kini si Jedaya anak ni Shimri ug apo ni Shemaya). 38 Kini sila mga pangulo sa ilang mga pamilya. Midaghan pag-ayo ang ilang mga kaliwat, 39 busa nakaabot sila hangtod sa Gedor, ngadto sa sidlakang bahin sa kapatagan, aron sa pagpangitag sabsabanan sa ilang mga karnero. 40 Nakakita sila didto ug labong ug maayo nga sabsabanan. Halapad kini nga dapit ug malinawon. Didto nagpuyo kaniadto ang ubang mga kaliwat ni Ham. 41 Apan niadtong panahon nga si Hezekia ang hari sa Juda, gisulong sila sa mga kaliwat ni Simeon kansang mga ngalan nahisgotan sa ibabaw. Giapil pagsulong sa mga kaliwat ni Simeon ang mga Meunhon nga didto usab namuyo, ug gilaglag sa hingpit.[j] Unya mipuli pagpuyo sa maong dapit ang mga kaliwat ni Simeon, tungod kay may sabsabanan didto alang sa ilang mga karnero. 42 Misulong ang 500 kanila sa kabungtoran sa Seir. Gipangulohan sila ni Pelatia, Neria, Refaya, ug Uziel, nga mga anak ni Ishi. 43 Gipatay nila ang nahibiling mga Amalekanhon didto, ug sila nay nagpuyo didto hangtod karon.

1 Chronicles 4
New King James Version
The Family of Judah
4 The sons of Judah were (A)Perez, Hezron, [a]Carmi, Hur, and Shobal. 2 And [b]Reaiah the son of Shobal begot Jahath, and Jahath begot Ahumai and Lahad. These were the families of the Zorathites. 3 These were the sons of the father of Etam: Jezreel, Ishma, and Idbash; and the name of their sister was Hazelelponi; 4 and Penuel was the father of Gedor, and Ezer was the father of Hushah.
These were the sons of (B)Hur, the firstborn of Ephrathah the father of Bethlehem.
5 And (C)Ashhur the father of Tekoa had two wives, Helah and Naarah. 6 Naarah bore him Ahuzzam, Hepher, Temeni, and Haahashtari. These were the sons of Naarah. 7 The sons of Helah were Zereth, Zohar, and Ethnan; 8 and Koz begot Anub, Zobebah, and the families of Aharhel the son of Harum.
9 Now Jabez was (D)more honorable than his brothers, and his mother called his name [c]Jabez, saying, “Because I bore him in pain.” 10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, “Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my [d]territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!” So God granted him what he requested.
11 Chelub the brother of (E)Shuhah begot Mehir, who was the father of Eshton. 12 And Eshton begot Beth-Rapha, Paseah, and Tehinnah the father of [e]Ir-Nahash. These were the men of Rechah.
13 The sons of Kenaz were (F)Othniel and Seraiah. The sons of Othniel were [f]Hathath, 14 and Meonothai who begot Ophrah. Seraiah begot Joab the father of (G)Ge Harashim,[g] for they were craftsmen. 15 The sons of (H)Caleb the son of Jephunneh were Iru, Elah, and Naam. The son of Elah was [h]Kenaz. 16 The sons of Jehallelel were Ziph, Ziphah, Tiria, and Asarel. 17 The sons of Ezrah were Jether, Mered, Epher, and Jalon. And [i]Mered’s wife bore Miriam, Shammai, and Ishbah the father of Eshtemoa. 18 ([j]His wife Jehudijah bore Jered the father of Gedor, Heber the father of Sochoh, and Jekuthiel the father of Zanoah.) And these were the sons of Bithiah the daughter of Pharaoh, whom Mered took.
19 The sons of Hodiah’s wife, the sister of Naham, were the fathers of Keilah the Garmite and of Eshtemoa the (I)Maachathite. 20 And the sons of Shimon were Amnon, Rinnah, Ben-Hanan, and Tilon. And the sons of Ishi were Zoheth and Ben-Zoheth.
21 The sons of (J)Shelah (K)the son of Judah were Er the father of Lecah, Laadah the father of Mareshah, and the families of the house of the linen workers of the house of Ashbea; 22 also Jokim, the men of Chozeba, and Joash; Saraph, who ruled in Moab, and Jashubi-Lehem. Now the [k]records are ancient. 23 These were the potters and those who dwell at [l]Netaim and [m]Gederah; there they dwelt with the king for his work.
The Family of Simeon(L)
24 The (M)sons of Simeon were [n]Nemuel, Jamin, [o]Jarib, [p]Zerah, and Shaul, 25 Shallum his son, Mibsam his son, and Mishma his son. 26 And the sons of Mishma were Hamuel his son, Zacchur his son, and Shimei his son. 27 Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters; but his brothers did not have many children, (N)nor did any of their families multiply as much as the children of Judah.
28 They dwelt at Beersheba, Moladah, Hazar Shual, 29 [q]Bilhah, Ezem, [r]Tolad, 30 Bethuel, Hormah, Ziklag, 31 Beth Marcaboth, [s]Hazar Susim, Beth Biri, and at Shaaraim. These were their cities until the reign of David. 32 And their villages were [t]Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Tochen, and Ashan—five cities— 33 and all the villages that were around these cities as far as [u]Baal. These were their dwelling places, and they maintained their genealogy: 34 Meshobab, Jamlech, and Joshah the son of Amaziah; 35 Joel, and Jehu the son of Joshibiah, the son of Seraiah, the son of Asiel; 36 Elioenai, Jaakobah, Jeshohaiah, Asaiah, Adiel, Jesimiel, and Benaiah; 37 Ziza the son of Shiphi, the son of Allon, the son of Jedaiah, the son of Shimri, the son of Shemaiah— 38 these mentioned by name were leaders in their families, and their father’s house increased greatly.
39 So they went to the entrance of Gedor, as far as the east side of the valley, to seek pasture for their flocks. 40 And they found rich, good pasture, and the land was broad, quiet, and peaceful; for some Hamites formerly lived there.
41 These recorded by name came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah; and they (O)attacked[v] their tents and the Meunites who were found there, and (P)utterly destroyed them, as it is to this day. So they dwelt in their place, because there was pasture for their flocks there. 42 Now some of them, five hundred men of the sons of Simeon, went to Mount Seir, having as their captains Pelatiah, Neariah, Rephaiah, and Uzziel, the sons of Ishi. 43 And they [w]defeated (Q)the rest of the Amalekites who had escaped. They have dwelt there to this day.

4 The descendants of Judah:(A)
Perez, Hezron,(B) Karmi, Hur and Shobal.
2 Reaiah son of Shobal was the father of Jahath, and Jahath the father of Ahumai and Lahad. These were the clans of the Zorathites.
3 These were the sons[a] of Etam:
Jezreel, Ishma and Idbash. Their sister was named Hazzelelponi. 4 Penuel was the father of Gedor, and Ezer the father of Hushah.

7 The sons of Helah:
Zereth, Zohar, Ethnan, 8 and Koz, who was the father of Anub and Hazzobebah and of the clans of Aharhel son of Harum.
9 Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez,[c] saying, “I gave birth to him in pain.” 10 Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted his request.
11 Kelub, Shuhah’s brother, was the father of Mehir, who was the father of Eshton. 12 Eshton was the father of Beth Rapha, Paseah and Tehinnah the father of Ir Nahash.[d] These were the men of Rekah.
13 The sons of Kenaz:
Othniel(F) and Seraiah.
The sons of Othniel:
Hathath and Meonothai.[e] 14 Meonothai was the father of Ophrah.
Seraiah was the father of Joab,
the father of Ge Harashim.[f] It was called this because its people were skilled workers.
15 The sons of Caleb son of Jephunneh:
Iru, Elah and Naam.
The son of Elah:
Kenaz.
16 The sons of Jehallelel:
Ziph, Ziphah, Tiria and Asarel.
17 The sons of Ezrah:
Jether, Mered, Epher and Jalon. One of Mered’s wives gave birth to Miriam,(G) Shammai and Ishbah the father of Eshtemoa. 18 (His wife from the tribe of Judah gave birth to Jered the father of Gedor, Heber the father of Soko, and Jekuthiel the father of Zanoah.(H)) These were the children of Pharaoh’s daughter Bithiah, whom Mered had married.
19 The sons of Hodiah’s wife, the sister of Naham:

20 The sons of Shimon:

21 The sons of Shelah(K) son of Judah:
Er the father of Lekah, Laadah the father of Mareshah and the clans of the linen workers at Beth Ashbea, 22 Jokim, the men of Kozeba, and Joash and Saraph, who ruled in Moab and Jashubi Lehem. (These records are from ancient times.) 23 They were the potters who lived at Netaim and Gederah; they stayed there and worked for the king.
Simeon(L)
24 The descendants of Simeon:(M)
Nemuel, Jamin, Jarib,(N) Zerah and Shaul;
25 Shallum was Shaul’s son, Mibsam his son and Mishma his son.
26 The descendants of Mishma:
Hammuel his son, Zakkur his son and Shimei his son.
27 Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters, but his brothers did not have many children; so their entire clan did not become as numerous as the people of Judah. 28 They lived in Beersheba,(O) Moladah,(P) Hazar Shual, 29 Bilhah, Ezem,(Q) Tolad, 30 Bethuel, Hormah,(R) Ziklag,(S) 31 Beth Markaboth, Hazar Susim, Beth Biri and Shaaraim.(T) These were their towns until the reign of David. 32 Their surrounding villages were Etam, Ain,(U) Rimmon, Token and Ashan(V)—five towns— 33 and all the villages around these towns as far as Baalath.[g] These were their settlements. And they kept a genealogical record.
34 Meshobab, Jamlech, Joshah son of Amaziah, 35 Joel, Jehu son of Joshibiah, the son of Seraiah, the son of Asiel, 36 also Elioenai, Jaakobah, Jeshohaiah, Asaiah, Adiel, Jesimiel, Benaiah, 37 and Ziza son of Shiphi, the son of Allon, the son of Jedaiah, the son of Shimri, the son of Shemaiah.
38 The men listed above by name were leaders of their clans. Their families increased greatly, 39 and they went to the outskirts of Gedor(W) to the east of the valley in search of pasture for their flocks. 40 They found rich, good pasture, and the land was spacious, peaceful and quiet.(X) Some Hamites had lived there formerly.
41 The men whose names were listed came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah. They attacked the Hamites in their dwellings and also the Meunites(Y) who were there and completely destroyed[h] them, as is evident to this day. Then they settled in their place, because there was pasture for their flocks. 42 And five hundred of these Simeonites, led by Pelatiah, Neariah, Rephaiah and Uzziel, the sons of Ishi, invaded the hill country of Seir.(Z) 43 They killed the remaining Amalekites(AA) who had escaped, and they have lived there to this day.
