1 Chronicles 7:20-29

International Standard Version

Genealogy of Ephraim

²⁰ Ephraim’s descendants included Shuthelah, his son Bered, his son Tahath, his son Eleadah, his son Tahath, ²¹ his son Zabad, his son Shuthelah, his son Ezer, and Elead. The people of Gath, who were native to the land, killed them when^[a] they came down to raid their cattle. ²² So their father Ephraim mourned many days, and his relatives came to comfort him. ²³ Later, Ephraim had marital relations with his wife, and she conceived and gave birth to a son, whom he named Beriah,^[b] because his household had been visited with disaster.

²⁴ His daughter Sheerah built both Lower and Upper Beth-horon, along with Uzzen-sheerah. ²⁵ Rephah was also his descendant,^[c] as were Resheph, Telah, Tahan, ²⁶ Ladan, Ammihud, Elishama, ²⁷ Nun, and Joshua. ²⁸ Their possessions and settlements included Bethel and its towns,^[d] Naaran to the east, Gezer and its towns to the west, Shechem and its towns as far as Ayyah and its towns ²⁹ along the borders of the descendants of Manasseh, Beth-shean and its towns, Taanach and its towns, Megiddo and its towns, and Dor and its towns. In these lived the descendants of Israel’s son Joseph.
