1 Chronicles 5:1-3
Jubilee Bible 2000
5 ¶ Now the sons of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel, (for he was the firstborn, but because he defiled his father’s bed, his birthright was given unto the sons of Joseph, the son of Israel; and he was not counted as the firstborn.
2 For Judah prevailed above his brethren and was their prince, but the birthright was Joseph’s:)
3 The sons, therefore, of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel, were Enoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.

Tree of Life Version
Descendants of Reuben
5 The sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel—he was the firstborn, but when he defiled his father’s bed, his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph son of Israel—so he is not reckoned as the firstborn in the genealogical record. 2 Though Judah was the strongest among his brothers, and a ruler came from him,[a] the birthright belonged to Joseph.
3 The sons of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel:
Enoch, Pallu, Hezron and Carmi.

2 For Judah prevailed above his brethren, and of him came the chief ruler; but the birthright was Joseph's:)
3 The sons, I say, of Reuben the firstborn of Israel were, Hanoch, and Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.
