2 Reaiah, 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.	2 Raia vero filius Sobal genuit Jahath, de quo nati sunt Ahumai, et Laad : hæ cognationes Sarathi.
3 These were the descendants of Hareph, the father of Etam: Jezreel, Ishma, and Idbash; their sister was named Hazzelelponi.	3 Ista quoque stirps Etam : Jezrahel, et Jesema, et Jedebos. Nomen quoque sororis eorum, Asalelphuni.

9 Jabez was the most distinguished of the brothers. His mother had named him Jabez, saying, "I bore him with pain."	9 Fuit autem Jabes inclytus præ fratribus suis, et mater ejus vocavit nomen illius Jabes, dicens : Quia peperi eum in dolore.
10 Jabez prayed to the God of Israel: "Oh, that you may truly bless me and extend my boundaries! Help me and make me free of misfortune, without pain!" And God granted his prayer.	10 Invocavit vero Jabes Deum Israël, dicens : Si benedicens benedixeris mihi, et dilataveris terminos meos, et fuerit manus tua mecum, et feceris me a malitia non opprimi. Et præstitit Deus quæ precatus est.
11 Chelub, the brother of Shuhah, became the father of Mehir, who was the father of Eshton.	11 Caleb autem frater Sua genuit Mahir, qui fuit pater Esthon.
12 Eshton became the father of Bethrapha, Paseah, and Tehinnah, the father of the city of Nahash. These were the men of Recah.	12 Porro Esthon genuit Bethrapha, et Phesse, et Tehinna patrem urbis Naas : hi sunt viri Recha.
13 The sons of Kenaz were Othniel and Seraiah. The sons of Othniel were Hathath and Meonothai;	13 Filii autem Cenez, Othoniel, et Saraia. Porro filii Othoniel, Hathath, et Maonathi.
14 Meonothai became the father of Ophrah. Seraiah became the father of Joab, the father of Geharashim, so called because they were craftsmen.	14 Maonathi genuit Ophra, Saraia autem genuit Joab patrem Vallis artificum : ibi quippe artifices erant.
15 The sons of Caleb, son of Jephunneh, were Ir, Elah, and Naam. The sons of Elah were. . . and Kenaz.	15 Filii vero Caleb filii Jephone, Hir, et Ela, et Naham. Filii quoque Ela : Cenez.

18 His (Mered's) Egyptian wife bore Jered, the father of Gedor, Heber, the father of Soco, and Jekuthiel, the father of Zanoah. These were the sons of Bithiah, the daughter of Pharaoh, whom Mered married.	18 Uxor quoque ejus Judaia, peperit Jared patrem Gedor, et Heber patrem Socho, et Icuthiel patrem Zanoë : hi autem filii Bethiæ filiæ Pharaonis, quam accepit Mered.
19 The sons of his Jewish wife, the sister of Naham, the father of Keilah, were Shimon the Garmite and Ishi the Maacathite.	19 Et filii uxoris Odaiæ sororis Naham patris Ceila, Garmi, et Esthamo, qui fuit de Machathi.
20 The sons of Shimon were Amnon, Rinnah, Benhanan, and Tilon. The son of Ishi was Zoheth and the son of Zoheth. . . .	20 Filii quoque Simon, Amnon, et Rinna filius Hanan, et Thilon. Et filii Jesi, Zoheth, et Benzoheth.
21 The descendants of Shelah, son of Judah, were: Er, the father of Lecah; Laadah, the father of Mareshah; the clans of the linen weavers' guild in Bethashbea;	21 Filii Sela, filii Juda : Her pater Lecha, et Laada pater Maresa, et cognationes domus operantium byssum in domo juramenti.
22 Jokim; the men of Cozeba; and Joash and Saraph, who held property in Moab, but returned to Bethlehem. (These are events of old.)	22 Et qui stare fecit solem, virique Mendacii, et Securus, et Incendens, qui principes fuerunt in Moab, et qui reversi sunt in Lahem : hæc autem verba vetera.
23 They were potters and inhabitants of Netaim and Gederah, where they lived in the king's service.	23 Hi sunt figuli habitantes in plantationibus et in sepibus, apud regem in operibus ejus : commoratique sunt ibi.
24 The sons of Simeon were Nemuel, Jamin, Jachin, Zerah, and Shaul,	24 Filii Simeon : Namuel et Jamin, Jarib, Zara, Saul.

26 The descendants of Mishma were his son Hammuel, whose son was Zaccur, whose son was Shimei.	26 Filii Masma : Hamuel filius ejus, Zachur filius ejus, Semei filius ejus.
27 Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters. His brothers, however, did not have many sons, and as a result all their clans did not equal the number of the Judahites.	27 Filii Semei sedecim, et filiæ sex : fratres autem ejus non habuerunt filios multos, et universa cognatio non potuit adæquare summam filiorum Juda.
28 They dwelt in Beer-sheba, Moladah, Hazar-shual,	28 Habitaverunt autem in Bersabee, et Molada, et Hasarsuhal,
29 Bilhah, Ezem, Tolad,	29 et in Bala, et in Asom, et in Tholad,
30 Bethuel, Hormah, Ziklag,	30 et in Bathuel, et in Horma, et in Siceleg,
31 Beth-marcaboth, Hazar-susim, Bethbiri, and Shaaraim. Until David came to reign, these were their cities	31 et in Bethmarchaboth, et in Hasarsusim, et in Bethberai, et in Saarim : hæ civitates eorum usque ad regem David.
32 and their villages. Etam, also, and Ain, Rimmon, Tochen, and Ashan--five cities,	32 Villæ quoque eorum : Etam, et Aën, Remmon, et Thochen, et Asan, civitates quinque.
33 together with all their outlying villages as far as Baal. Here is where they dwelt, and so it was inscribed of them in their family records.	33 Et universi viculi eorum per circuitum civitatum istarum usque ad Baal : hæc est habitatio eorum, et sedium distributio.

38 these just named were princes in their clans, and their ancestral houses spread out to such an extent	38 Isti sunt nominati principes in cognationibus suis, et in domo affinitatum suarum multiplicati sunt vehementer.
39 that they went to the approaches of Gedor, east of the valley, seeking pasture for their flocks.	39 Et profecti sunt ut ingrederentur in Gador usque ad orientem vallis, et ut quærerent pascua gregibus suis.
40 They found abundant and good pastures, and the land was spacious, quiet, and peaceful.	40 Inveneruntque pascuas uberes, et valde bonas, et terram latissimam et quietam et fertilem, in qua ante habitaverant de stirpe Cham.
41 They who have just been listed by name set out during the reign of Hezekiah, king of Judah, and attacked the tents of Ham (for Hamites dwelt there formerly) and also the Meunites who were there. They pronounced against them the ban that is still in force and dwelt in their place because they found pasture there for their flocks.	41 Hi ergo venerunt, quos supra descripsimus nominatim, in diebus Ezechiæ regis Juda : et percusserunt tabernacula eorum, et habitatores qui inventi fuerant ibi, et deleverunt eos usque in præsentem diem : habitaveruntque pro eis, quoniam uberrimas pascuas ibidem repererunt.
42 Five hundred of them (the Simeonites) went to Mount Seir under the leadership of Pelatiah, Neariah, Rephaiah, and Uzziel, sons of Ishi.	42 De filiis quoque Simeon abierunt in montem Seir viri quingenti, habentes principes Phalthiam et Naariam et Raphaiam et Oziel filios Jesi :
43 They attacked the surviving Amalekites who had escaped, and have resided there to the present day.	43 et percusserunt reliquias, quæ evadere potuerant, Amalecitarum, et habitaverunt ibi pro eis usque ad diem hanc.
