1 Chronicles 4:39-41

Contemporary English Version

³⁹ When the people needed more pastureland for their flocks and herds, they looked as far as the eastern side of the valley where the town of Gerar^[a] is located, ⁴⁰ and they found a lot of good pastureland that was quiet and undisturbed. This had once belonged to the Hamites, ⁴¹ but when Hezekiah was king of Judah, the descendants of Simeon attacked and forced the Hamites and Meunites off the land, then settled there.
