1 Chronicles 4:39-41

New International Reader's Version

³⁹ They spread out all the way to the edge of Gedor east of the valley. They looked for grasslands for their flocks. ⁴⁰ They found grasslands that were rich and good. The land had plenty of room. It was peaceful and quiet. Some of the people of Ham had lived there before.

⁴¹ The men whose names are listed lived at the time when Hezekiah was king of Judah. They came and attacked the Hamites in their homes. They also attacked the Meunites who were there. And they completely destroyed them. What happened to them is clear even to this day. The men of Simeon made their homes where the Meunites had lived. That’s because in that place there were enough grasslands for their flocks.
