Evangelical Heritage Version
The Tribe of Manasseh
14 The first son of Manasseh was Asriel, born to his Aramean concubine. She also gave birth to Makir, the father of Gilead. 15 Makir took a wife from Huppim and Shuppim.[a] His sister’s name was Ma’akah. The name of Manasseh’s second son was Zelophehad, but Zelophehad had only daughters. 16 Ma’akah, the wife of Makir,[b] gave birth to a son, and she named him Peresh. The name of his brother was Sheresh, and his sons were Ulam and Rakem. 17 The son of Ulam was Bedan.
These were the sons of Gilead, the son of Makir, the son of Manasseh. 18 His sister Hammoleketh gave birth to Ishhod, Abiezer, and Mahlah. 19 The sons of Shemida were Ahian, Shechem, Likhi, and Aniam.
