1 Chronicles, Chapter 4
1* The sons of Judah were: Perez, Hezron, Carmi, Hur, and Shobal.a2Reaiah, the son of Shobal, became the father of Jahath, and Jahath became the father of Ahumai and Lahad. These were the clans of the Zorathites.
3These were the sons of Hareph, the father of Etam: Jezreel, Ishma, and Idbash; their sister was named Hazzelelponi.4Penuel was the father of Gedor, and Ezer the father of Hushah. These were the sons of Hur, the firstborn of Ephrathah, the father of Bethlehem.
5Ashhur, the father of Tekoa, had two wives, Helah and Naarah.b6Naarah bore him Ahuzzam, Hepher, the Temenites, and the Ahashtarites. These were the sons of Naarah.7The sons of Helah were Zereth, Izhar, Ethnan, and Koz.8Koz became the father of Anub and Zobebah, as well as of the clans of Aharhel, son of Harum.9Jabez was the most distinguished of his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez, saying, "I bore him with pain."10Jabez prayed to the God of Israel: "Oh, that you may truly bless me and extend my boundaries! May your hand be with me and make me free of misfortune, without pain!" And God granted his prayer.
