1 Chronicles 5

¹And the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel (for he was the firstborn; but, inasmuch as he defiled his father's bed, his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph the son of Israel; but the genealogy is not registered according to the birthright,

²for Judah prevailed among his brethren, and of him was the prince, but the birthright was Joseph's),

³— the sons of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel: Enoch and Phallu, Hezron and Carmi.

⁴The sons of Joel: Shemaiah his son, Gog his son, Shimei his son,

⁵Micah his son, Reaiah his son, Baal his son,

⁶Beerah his son, whom Tilgath-Pilneser king of Assyria carried away captive: he was prince of the Reubenites.

⁷And his brethren by their families, in the genealogical register of their generations, were: the chief, Jeiel, and Zechariah,

⁸and Bela the son of Azaz, the son of Shema, the son of Joel, who dwelt in Aroer, as far as Nebo and Baal-meon;

⁹and eastward he dwelt as far as the entrance to the wilderness from the river Euphrates; for their cattle were multiplied in the land of Gilead.

¹⁰And in the days of Saul they made war with the Hagarites, who fell by their hand; and they dwelt in their tents throughout the east side of Gilead.

¹¹And the children of Gad dwelt over against them, in the land of Bashan, as far as Salcah:

¹²Joel was the chief and Shapham the next, and Jaanai, and Shaphat in Bashan.
