1 Chronicles 4

¹Sons of Judah: Pharez, Hezron, and Carmi, and Hur, and Shobal.

²And Reaiah son of Shobal begat Jahath, and Jahath begat Ahumai and Lahad; these [are] families of the Zorathite.

³And these [are] of the father of Etam: Jezreel, and Ishma, and Idbash; and the name of their sister [is] Hazzelelponi,

⁴and Penuel [is] father of Gedor, and Ezer father of Hushah. These [are] sons of Hur, first-born of Ephratah, father of Beth-Lehem.

⁵And to Ashhur father of Tekoa were two wives, Helah and Naarah;

⁶and Naarah beareth to him Ahuzzam, and Hepher, and Temeni, and Haahashtari: these [are] sons of Naarah.

⁷And sons of Helah: Zereth, and Zohar, and Ethnan.

⁸And Coz begat Anub, and Zobebah, and the families of Aharhel son of Harum.

⁹And Jabez is honoured above his brethren, and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, 'Because I have brought forth with grief.'

¹⁰And Jabez calleth to the God of Israel, saying, 'If blessing Thou dost bless me, then Thou hast made great my border, and Thy hand hath been with me, and Thou hast kept [me] from evil — not to grieve me;' and God bringeth in that which he asked.

¹¹And Chelub brother of Shuah begat Mehir; he [is] father of Eshton.

¹²And Eshton begat Beth-Rapha, and Paseah, and Tehinnah father of Ir-Nahash; these [are] men of Rechah.

¹³And sons of Kenaz: Othniel, and Seraiah; and sons of Othniel: Hathath.
