1 Chronicles 4:8-10

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁸ Koz was the father of Anub, Zobebah, and the families of Aharhel son of Harum.

⁹ Jabez was honorable above his brothers; but his mother named him Jabez [sorrow maker], saying, Because I bore him in pain.

¹⁰ Jabez cried to the God of Israel, saying, Oh, that You would bless me and enlarge my border, and that Your hand might be with me, and You would keep me from evil so it might not hurt me! And God granted his request.
