1 Chronicles 5:1-10

Evangelical Heritage Version

The Transjordan Tribes
The Tribe of Reuben

5 The sons of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel:

³ The sons of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel, were Hanok, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.

⁴ Successive generations of descendants^[a] of Joel were his son Shemaiah, his son Gog, his son Shimei, ⁵ his son Micah, his son Reaiah, his son Baal, ⁶ and his son Be’erah, whom Tiglath Pileser^[b] king of Assyria carried away captive. He was the tribal leader of the Reubenites.

⁷ The following are his relatives as listed by their clans in the genealogical records. Jeiel was the head. Others were Zechariah, ⁸ Bela son of Azaz, who was the son of Shema, who was the son of Joel, who lived in the territory of Aroer, all the way to Nebo and Baal Meon. ⁹ They lived in the east, all the way to the beginning of the wilderness which extends to the Euphrates River, because their livestock had increased greatly in the land of Gilead. ¹⁰ In the days of Saul, they made war against the Hagraites, who fell by their hand. So they lived in their tents throughout all the land east of Gilead.
