*
The sons of Simeon :
Nemuel ,
and Jamin ,
Jarib ,
Zerah ,
Shaul ;
*
Shallum was his son ;
Mibsam ,
his son ;
Mishma ,
his son .
*
And the sons of Mishma :
Hamuel his son ;
Zacchur ,
his son ;
Shimei ,
his son .
*
And Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters .
But his brothers did not have many sons ,
nor did all their family multiply like the sons of Judah .
*
And they lived at Beersheba ,
and Moladah ,
and Hazar-shual ,
*
and at Bilhah ,
and at Ezem ,
and at Tolad ,
*
and at Bethuel ,
and at Hormah ,
and at Ziklag ,
*
and at Beth-marcaboth ,
and at Hazar-susim ,
and at Beth-birei ,
and at Shaaraim .
These were their cities until the reign of David .
*
And their villages were Etam ,
and Ain ,
Rimmon ,
and Tochen ,
and Ashan ,
five cities .
*
And all their villages were all around these cities ,
to Baal .
This is their family line and their dwellings ,
*
and Meshobab ;
and Jamlech ;
and Joshah ,
the son of Amaziah ;
*
and Joel ;
and Jehu the son of Josibiah ,
the son of Seraiah ,
the son of Asiel ;
*
and Elioenai ;
and Jaakobah ;
and Jeshohaiah ;
and Asaiah ;
and Adiel ;
and Jesimiel ;
and Benaiah ;
*
and Ziza the son of Shiphi ,
the son of Allon ,
the son of Jedaiah ,
the son of Shimri ,
the son of Shemaiah ;
*
these going by name were rulers in their families .
And the house of their fathers increased to a multitude .
*
And they went to the entrance of Gedor ,
to the east side of the valley to look for pasture for their flocks .
*
And they found pasture ,
fertile and good ,
for the land was wide ,
and quiet ,
and peaceable ;
for those of Ham who lived there were of old .
*
And these written by name came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah ,
and struck their tents ,
and the homes found there ,
and completely destroyed them until this day .
And they lived in their places ,
because there was pasture there for their flocks .
*
And some of them ,
five hundred men of the sons of Simeon went to Mount Seir .
And they had as their commanders ,
Pelatiah ,
and Neariah ,
and Rephaiah ,
and Uzziel ,
the son of Ishi .
*
And they struck the rest which escaped to Amalek ,
and lived there until this day .
