And the sons{H1121} of Reuben{H7205} the first-born{H1060} of Israel{H3478} (for he was the first-born;{H1060} but, forasmuch as he defiled{H2490} his father's{H1} couch,{H3326} his birthright{H1062} was given{H5414} unto the sons{H1121} of Joseph{H3130} the son{H1121} of Israel;{H3478} and the genealogy is not to be reckoned{H3187} after the birthright.{H1062}

For Judah{H3063} prevailed{H1396} above his brethren,{H251} and of him came the prince;{H5057} but the birthright{H1062} was Joseph's),{H3130}

the sons{H1121} of Reuben{H7205} the first-born{H1060} of Israel:{H3478} Hanoch,{H2585} and Pallu,{H6396} Hezron,{H2696} and Carmi.{H3756}

Beerah{H880} his son,{H1121} whom Tilgath-pilneser{H8407} king{H4428} of Assyria{H804} carried away{H1540} captive: he was prince{H5387} of the Reubenites.{H7206}

And his brethren{H251} by their families,{H4940} when the genealogy{H3187} of their generations{H8435} was reckoned:{H3187} the chief,{H7218} Jeiel,{H3273} and Zechariah,{H2148}

and Bela{H1106} the son{H1121} of Azaz,{H5811} the son{H1121} of Shema,{H8087} the son{H1121} of Joel,{H3100} who dwelt{H3427} in Aroer,{H6177} even unto Nebo{H5015} and Baal-meon:{H1186}

and eastward{H4217} he dwelt{H3427} even unto the entrance{H935} of the wilderness{H4057} from the river{H5104} Euphrates,{H6578} because their cattle{H4735} were multiplied{H7235} in the land{H776} of Gilead.{H1568}

And in the days{H3117} of Saul,{H7586} they made{H6213} war{H4421} with the Hagrites,{H1905} who fell{H5307} by their hand;{H3027} and they dwelt{H3427} in their tents{H168} throughout{H6440} all the [land] east{H4217} of Gilead.{H1568}

And the sons{H1121} of Gad{H1410} dwelt{H3427} over against them, in the land{H776} of Bashan{H1316} unto Salecah:{H5548}

Joel{H3100} the chief,{H7218} and Shapham{H8223} the second,{H4932} and Janai,{H3285} and Shaphat{H8202} in Bashan.{H1316}

And their brethren{H251} of their fathers'{H1} houses:{H1004} Michael,{H4317} and Meshullam,{H4918} and Sheba,{H7652} and Jorai,{H3140} and Jacan,{H3275} and Zia,{H2127} and Eber,{H5677} seven.{H7651}

These were the sons{H1121} of Abihail,{H32} the son{H1121} of Huri,{H2359} the son{H1121} of Jaroah,{H3386} the son{H1121} of Gilead,{H1568} the son{H1121} of Michael,{H4317} the son{H1121} of Jeshishai,{H3454} the son{H1121} of Jahdo,{H3163} the son{H1121} of Buz;{H938}

All these were reckoned by genealogies{H3187} in the days{H3117} of Jotham{H3147} king{H4428} of Judah,{H3063} and in the days{H3117} of Jeroboam{H3379} king{H4428} of Israel.{H3478}

The sons{H1121} of Reuben,{H7205} and the Gadites,{H1425} and the half-tribe{H2677} {H7626} of Manasseh,{H4519} of valiant men,{H582} men{H2428} able to bear{H5375} buckler{H4043} and sword,{H2719} and to shoot{H1869} with bow,{H7198} and skilful{H3925} in war,{H4421} were forty{H705} and four{H702} thousand{H505} seven{H7651} hundred{H3967} and threescore,{H8346} that were able to go forth{H3318} to war.{H6635}

And they made{H6213} war{H4421} with the Hagrites,{H1905} with Jetur,{H3195} and Naphish,{H5305} and Nodab.{H5114}

And they were helped{H5826} against them, and the Hagrites{H1905} were delivered{H5414} into their hand,{H3027} and all that were with them; for they cried{H2199} to God{H430} in the battle,{H4421} and he was entreated{H6279} of them, because they put their trust{H982} in him.

And they took away{H7617} their cattle;{H4735} of their camels{H1581} fifty{H2572} thousand,{H505} and of sheep{H6629} two hundred{H3967} and fifty{H2572} thousand,{H505} and of asses{H2543} two thousand,{H505} and of men{H120} a hundred{H3967} thousand.{H505}

For there fell{H5307} many{H7227} slain,{H2491} because the war{H4421} was of God.{H430} And they dwelt{H3427} in their stead until the captivity.{H1473}

And the children{H1121} of the half-tribe{H2677} {H7626} of Manasseh{H4519} dwelt{H3427} in the land:{H776} they increased{H7235} from Bashan{H1316} unto Baal-hermon{H1179} and Senir{H8149} and mount{H2022} Hermon.{H2768}

And they trespassed{H4603} against the God{H430} of their fathers,{H1} and played the harlot{H2181} after{H310} the gods{H430} of the peoples{H5971} of the land,{H776} whom God{H430} destroyed{H8045} before{H6440} them.

And the God{H430} of Israel{H3478} stirred up{H5782} the spirit{H7307} of Pul{H6322} king{H4428} of Assyria,{H804} and the spirit{H7307} of Tilgath-pilneser{H8407} king{H4428} of Assyria,{H804} and he carried them away,{H1540} even the Reubenites,{H7206} and the Gadites,{H1425} and the half-tribe{H2677} {H7626} of Manasseh,{H4519} and brought{H935} them unto Halah,{H2477} and Habor,{H2249} and Hara,{H2024} and to the river{H5104} of Gozan,{H1470} unto this day.{H3117}
