1 Chronicles 5
English Standard Version
Descendants of Reuben
5 The sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel ((A)for he was the firstborn, but because (B)he defiled his father's couch, (C)his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph the son of Israel, so that he could not be enrolled as the oldest son; 2 (D)though Judah became strong among his brothers and a (E)chief came from him, yet the birthright belonged to Joseph), 3 the (F)sons of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel: Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi. 4 The sons of Joel: Shemaiah his son, Gog his son, Shimei his son, 5 Micah his son, Reaiah his son, Baal his son, 6 Beerah his son, whom (G)Tiglath-pileser[a] king of Assyria carried away into exile; he was a chief of the Reubenites. 7 And his kinsmen by their clans, (H)when the genealogy of their generations was recorded: the chief, Jeiel, and Zechariah, 8 and Bela the son of Azaz, son of (I)Shema, son of Joel, who lived in (J)Aroer, as far as (K)Nebo and (L)Baal-meon. 9 He also lived to the east as far as the entrance of the desert this side of the Euphrates, because their livestock had multiplied (M)in the land of Gilead. 10 And in the days of Saul they waged war against the (N)Hagrites, who fell into their hand. And they lived in their tents throughout all the region east of Gilead.
Descendants of Gad
11 The sons of Gad lived over against them in the land of Bashan as far as (O)Salecah: 12 Joel the chief, Shapham the second, Janai, and Shaphat in Bashan. 13 And their kinsmen according to their fathers' houses: Michael, Meshullam, Sheba, Jorai, Jacan, Zia and Eber, seven. 14 These were the sons of Abihail the son of Huri, son of Jaroah, son of Gilead, son of Michael, son of Jeshishai, son of Jahdo, son of Buz. 15 Ahi the son of Abdiel, son of Guni, was chief in their fathers' houses, 16 and they lived in Gilead, in Bashan and in its towns, and in all the pasturelands of (P)Sharon to their limits. 17 All of these were recorded in genealogies in the days of (Q)Jotham king of Judah, and in the days of (R)Jeroboam king of Israel.
18 The Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh had valiant men who carried shield and sword, and drew the bow, (S)expert in war, 44,760, able to go to war. 19 They waged war against the (T)Hagrites, (U)Jetur, Naphish, and Nodab. 20 And when they prevailed[b] over them, the Hagrites and all who were with them were given into their hands, (V)for they cried out to God in the battle, and he granted their urgent plea (W)because they trusted in him. 21 They carried off their livestock: 50,000 of their camels, 250,000 sheep, 2,000 donkeys, and 100,000 men alive. 22 For many fell, because the war was of God. And they lived (X)in their place until (Y)the exile.
The Half-Tribe of Manasseh
23 The members of the half-tribe of Manasseh lived in the land. They were very numerous from Bashan to Baal-hermon, (Z)Senir, and Mount Hermon. 24 These were the heads of their fathers' houses: Epher,[c] Ishi, Eliel, Azriel, Jeremiah, Hodaviah, and Jahdiel, mighty warriors, famous men, heads of their fathers' houses. 25 But they broke faith with the God of their fathers, and (AA)whored (AB)after the gods of the peoples of the land, whom God had destroyed before them. 26 So the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of (AC)Pul king of Assyria, the spirit of (AD)Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, and he took them into exile, namely, the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, and brought them (AE)to Halah, (AF)Habor, Hara, and (AG)the river Gozan, to this day.

Dòng Dõi của Ru-bên
5 Sau đây là các con của Ru-bên con đầu lòng của I-sơ-ra-ên. (Ru-bên tuy là con đầu lòng, nhưng vì ông đã làm ô nhục giường của cha ông, nên quyền trưởng tử của ông đã được ban cho các con của Giô-sép con trai của I-sơ-ra-ên. Ru-bên đã không được ghi vào gia phả theo thông lệ của người có quyền trưởng tử. 2 Ngoài ra Giu-đa đã trở nên nổi bật giữa vòng anh em của ông, và một người lãnh đạo đã ra từ dòng dõi của ông, dù vậy quyền trưởng tử vẫn thuộc về Giô-sép.) 3 Các con của Ru-bên con đầu lòng của I-sơ-ra-ên là Ha-nóc, Panh-lu, Hê-xơ-rôn, và Cạt-mi.
4 Các con của Giô-ên là Sê-ma-gia con của ông, Gót con của ông, Si-mê-i con của ông, 5 Mi-ca con của ông, Rê-a-gia con của ông, Ba-anh con của ông, 6 và Bê-ê-ra con của ông. Bê-ê-ra là người đã bị Tin-gát Pin-nê-se[a] vua A-sy-ri đem đi lưu đày; ông là thủ lãnh của chi tộc Ru-bên lúc bấy giờ.
7 Các anh em của ông được liệt kê trong gia phả theo từng thị tộc gồm: đứng đầu là Giê-i-ên, kế đến là Xa-cha-ri-a, 8 rồi Bê-la con của A-xa, con của Sê-ma, con của Giô-ên.
Chi tộc Ru-bên sống ở miền A-rô-ê chạy dài cho đến Nê-bô và Ba-anh Mê-ôn. 9 Con cháu của ông cũng sống lan rộng về hướng đông đến giáp ranh với sa mạc phía bên này Sông Ơ-phơ-rát, bởi vì súc vật của họ sinh sản tăng nhiều trong vùng Ghi-lê-át. 10 Trong thời của Vua Sau-lơ họ đã có chiến tranh với dân Hắc-ri; dân ấy đã bị ngã gục dưới tay họ. Họ chiếm ngụ trong các lều trại của dân ấy khắp vùng phía đông của Ghi-lê-át.
Dòng Dõi của Gát
11 Các con của Gát sống đối ngang với họ trong đất Ba-san lan rộng đến Sa-lê-ca: 12 đứng đầu là Giô-ên, thứ nhì là Sa-pham, kế đến là Gia-nai và Sa-phát ở Ba-san.
13 Các anh em của ông được liệt kê theo từng thị tộc gồm: Mi-ca-ên, Mê-su-lam, Sê-ba, Giô-rai, Gia-can, Xi-a, và Ê-be – bảy người cả thảy.
14 Ðây là các con của A-bi-ha-in con của Hu-ri, con của Gia-rô-a, con của Ghi-lê-át, con của Mi-ca-ên, con của Giê-si-sai, con của Gia-đô, con của Bu-xơ.
15 A-hi con của Áp-đi-ên, con của Gu-ni, là thủ lãnh của chi tộc Gát.
16 Họ sống trong miền Ghi-lê-át, trong xứ Ba-san, trong các thành của xứ đó, trong các đồng cỏ của miền Sa-rôn, và các miền tận cùng các ranh giới của các đồng cỏ đó.
17 Tất cả những người ấy đã đăng bộ theo từng gia phả trong thời của Giô-tham vua Giu-đa và trong thời của Giê-rô-bô-am vua I-sơ-ra-ên.
18 Chi tộc Ru-bên, chi tộc Gát, và phân nửa chi tộc Ma-na-se đã có những chiến sĩ dũng mãnh. Họ thông thạo việc sử dụng khiên và gươm, cung và tên, và họ thật lão luyện trong chiến trường. Họ có bốn mươi bốn ngàn bảy trăm sáu mươi người sẵn sàng ra trận. 19 Họ đánh nhau với các dân Hắc-ri, Giê-tu, Na-phích, và Nô-đáp. 20 Họ nhận được sự giúp đỡ khi đối phó với quân thù. Dân Hắc-ri và tất cả các đồng minh của dân ấy đã bị trao vào tay họ, bởi vì khi lâm trận họ kêu cầu Ðức Chúa Trời. Ngài đã ban cho họ những gì họ cầu xin, vì họ tin cậy Ngài. 21 Họ bắt đi các bầy súc vật của các dân ấy: năm mươi ngàn lạc đà, hai trăm năm mươi ngàn chiên, hai ngàn lừa, và một trăm ngàn tù binh. 22 Nhiều người đã tử trận, bởi vì cuộc chiến ấy thuộc về Ðức Chúa Trời. Họ đã sống trong lãnh thổ của các dân ấy cho đến khi bị lưu đày.
Nửa Chi Tộc Ma-na-se
23 Con cháu của phân nửa chi tộc Ma-na-se đã sống trong xứ. Họ rất đông và định cư từ miền Ba-san cho đến Ba-anh Hẹt-môn, Sê-ni-rơ, và Núi Hẹt-môn.
24 Ðây là những thủ lãnh của các thị tộc của họ: Ê-phe, I-si, Ê-li-ên, A-xơ-ri-ên, Giê-rê-mi, Hô-đa-vi-a, và Gia-đi-ên. Họ là những chiến sĩ dũng mãnh, những người danh tiếng, những người cầm đầu thị tộc của họ. 25 Tuy nhiên họ đã bất trung với Ðức Chúa Trời của tổ tiên họ. Họ làm điếm bằng cách thờ lạy các thần của các dân trong xứ, những kẻ Ðức Chúa Trời đã tiêu diệt trước mặt họ. 26 Vì thế Ðức Chúa Trời của I-sơ-ra-ên đã dấy động lòng của Pun vua A-sy-ri, tức lòng của Tin-gát Pin-nê-se vua A-sy-ri, và ông ấy đã bắt họ đem đi; đó là các chi tộc Ru-bên, chi tộc Gát, và phân nửa chi tộc Ma-na-se. Ông ấy đã mang họ đến lưu đày ở Ha-la, Ha-bơ, Ha-ra, và bên bờ Sông Gô-xan cho đến ngày nay.

1 Chronicles 5
King James Version
5 Now the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel, (for he was the firstborn; but forasmuch as he defiled his father's bed, his birthright was given unto the sons of Joseph the son of Israel: and the genealogy is not to be reckoned after the birthright.
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.
4 The sons of Joel; Shemaiah his son, Gog his son, Shimei his son,
5 Micah his son, Reaia his son, Baal his son,
6 Beerah his son, whom Tilgathpilneser king of Assyria carried away captive: he was prince of the Reubenites.
7 And his brethren by their families, when the genealogy of their generations was reckoned, were the chief, Jeiel, and Zechariah,
8 And Bela the son of Azaz, the son of Shema, the son of Joel, who dwelt in Aroer, even unto Nebo and Baalmeon:
9 And eastward he inhabited unto the entering in of the wilderness from the river Euphrates: because their cattle were multiplied in the land of Gilead.
10 And in the days of Saul they made war with the Hagarites, who fell by their hand: and they dwelt in their tents throughout all the east land of Gilead.
11 And the children of Gad dwelt over against them, in the land of Bashan unto Salcah:
12 Joel the chief, and Shapham the next, and Jaanai, and Shaphat in Bashan.
13 And their brethren of the house of their fathers were, Michael, and Meshullam, and Sheba, and Jorai, and Jachan, and Zia, and Heber, seven.
14 These are the children of Abihail the son of Huri, the son of Jaroah, the son of Gilead, the son of Michael, the son of Jeshishai, the son of Jahdo, the son of Buz;
15 Ahi the son of Abdiel, the son of Guni, chief of the house of their fathers.
16 And they dwelt in Gilead in Bashan, and in her towns, and in all the suburbs of Sharon, upon their borders.
17 All these were reckoned by genealogies in the days of Jotham king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam king of Israel.
18 The sons of Reuben, and the Gadites, and half the tribe of Manasseh, of valiant men, men able to bear buckler and sword, and to shoot with bow, and skilful in war, were four and forty thousand seven hundred and threescore, that went out to the war.
19 And they made war with the Hagarites, with Jetur, and Nephish, and Nodab.
20 And they were helped against them, and the Hagarites were delivered into their hand, and all that were with them: for they cried to God in the battle, and he was intreated of them; because they put their trust in him.
21 And they took away their cattle; of their camels fifty thousand, and of sheep two hundred and fifty thousand, and of asses two thousand, and of men an hundred thousand.
22 For there fell down many slain, because the war was of God. And they dwelt in their steads until the captivity.
23 And the children of the half tribe of Manasseh dwelt in the land: they increased from Bashan unto Baalhermon and Senir, and unto mount Hermon.
24 And these were the heads of the house of their fathers, even Epher, and Ishi, and Eliel, and Azriel, and Jeremiah, and Hodaviah, and Jahdiel, mighty men of valour, famous men, and heads of the house of their fathers.
25 And they transgressed against the God of their fathers, and went a whoring after the gods of the people of the land, whom God destroyed before them.
26 And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul king of Assyria, and the spirit of Tilgathpilneser king of Assyria, and he carried them away, even the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh, and brought them unto Halah, and Habor, and Hara, and to the river Gozan, unto this day.
1 Chronicles 5
New King James Version
The Family of Reuben(A)
5 Now the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel—(B)he was indeed the firstborn, but because he (C)defiled his father’s bed, (D)his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph, the son of Israel, so that the genealogy is not listed according to the birthright; 2 yet (E)Judah prevailed over his brothers, and from him came a (F)ruler, although [a]the birthright was Joseph’s— 3 the sons of (G)Reuben the firstborn of Israel were Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.
4 The sons of Joel were Shemaiah his son, Gog his son, Shimei his son, 5 Micah his son, Reaiah his son, Baal his son, 6 and Beerah his son, whom [b]Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria (H)carried into captivity. He was leader of the Reubenites. 7 And his brethren by their families, (I)when the genealogy of their generations was registered: the chief, Jeiel, and Zechariah, 8 and Bela the son of Azaz, the son of Shema, the son of Joel, who dwelt in (J)Aroer, as far as Nebo and Baal Meon. 9 Eastward they settled as far as the [c]entrance of the wilderness this side of the River Euphrates, because their cattle had [d]multiplied (K)in the land of Gilead.
10 Now in the days of Saul they made war (L)with the Hagrites, who fell by their hand; and they dwelt in their tents throughout the entire area east of Gilead.
The Family of Gad
11 And the (M)children of Gad dwelt next to them in the land of (N)Bashan as far as (O)Salcah: 12 Joel was the chief, Shapham the next, then Jaanai and Shaphat in Bashan, 13 and their brethren of their father’s house: Michael, Meshullam, Sheba, Jorai, Jachan, Zia, and Eber—seven in all. 14 These were the children of Abihail the son of Huri, the son of Jaroah, the son of Gilead, the son of Michael, the son of Jeshishai, the son of Jahdo, the son of Buz; 15 Ahi the son of Abdiel, the son of Guni, was chief of their father’s house. 16 And the Gadites dwelt in Gilead, in Bashan and in its villages, and in all the [e]common-lands of (P)Sharon within their borders. 17 All these were registered by genealogies in the days of (Q)Jotham king of Judah, and in the days of (R)Jeroboam king of Israel.
18 The sons of Reuben, the Gadites, and half the tribe of Manasseh had forty-four thousand seven hundred and sixty valiant men, men able to bear shield and sword, to shoot with the bow, and skillful in war, who went to war. 19 They made war with the Hagrites, (S)Jetur, Naphish, and Nodab. 20 And (T)they were helped against them, and the Hagrites were delivered into their hand, and all who were with them, for they (U)cried out to God in the battle. He [f]heeded their prayer, because they (V)put their trust in Him. 21 Then they took away their livestock—fifty thousand of their camels, two hundred and fifty thousand of their sheep, and two thousand of their donkeys—also one hundred thousand of their men; 22 for many fell dead, because the war (W)was God’s. And they dwelt in their place until (X)the captivity.
The Family of Manasseh (East)
23 So the children of the half-tribe of Manasseh dwelt in the land. Their numbers increased from Bashan to Baal Hermon, that is, to (Y)Senir, or Mount Hermon. 24 These were the heads of their fathers’ houses: Epher, Ishi, Eliel, Azriel, Jeremiah, Hodaviah, and Jahdiel. They were mighty men of valor, famous men, and heads of their fathers’ houses.
25 And they were unfaithful to the God of their fathers, and (Z)played the harlot after the gods of the peoples of the land, whom God had destroyed before them. 26 So the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of (AA)Pul king of Assyria, that is, (AB)Tiglath-Pileser[g] king of Assyria. He carried the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh into captivity. He took them to (AC)Halah, Habor, Hara, and the river of Gozan to this day.
