⁷And the sons of Helah were Zereth, Izhar and Ethnan.

⁸And Koz was the father of Anub and Zobebah, and the families of Aharhel the son of Harum.

⁹And Jabez was honoured more than his brothers; but his mother had given him the name Jabez, saying, Because I gave birth to him with sorrow.

¹⁰And Jabez made a prayer to the God of Israel, saying, If only you would truly give me a blessing, and make wider the limits of my land, and let your hand be with me, and keep me from evil, so that I may not be troubled by it! And God gave him his desire.

¹¹And Chelub, the brother of Shuhah, was the father of Mehir, who was the father of Eshton.
