1 Chronicles 2:3-9
Evangelical Heritage Version

The Descendants of Judah

3 The sons of Judah were Er, Onan, and Shelah. Those three were born to him by Shua’s daughter,[a] a Canaanite woman. Er, who was Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the Lord, so he killed him. 4 Tamar, Judah’s daughter-in-law, gave birth to Perez and Zerah for him. Judah had a total of five sons.

The Clans of Judah

5 The sons of Perez were Hezron and Hamul.
6 The sons of Zerah were Zimri, Ethan, Heman, Kalkol, and Dara,[b] five
of them in all.
7 The son of Carmi was Achar,[c] the troubler of Israel, who was unfaithful when he stole things that had been devoted to destruction.
8 The son of Ethan was Azariah.
