* And the sons of Reuben the first-born of Israel (for he was the first-born ; but since he defiled his father 's bed , his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph , the son of Israel ; and the genealogy is not to be counted according to the birthright ; * for Judah prevailed among his brothers , and from him was the chief ruler , but the birthright was Joseph 's ) * the sons of Reuben the first-born of Israel : Hanoch , and Pallu , Hezron , and Carmi . * The sons of Joel : Shemaiah , his son ; Gog , his son ; Shimei , his son ; * Micah , his son ; Reaiah , his son ; Baal , his son ; * Beerah , his son , whom Tilgath-pilneser king of Assyria exiled . He was ruler of the men of Reuben . * And his brothers by their families , in the genealogy of their generations : Jeiel the chief ; also Zechariah ; * and Bela , the son of Azaz , the son of Shema , the son of Joel , who lived in Aroer , even to Nebo and Baal-meon . * And he lived as far to the east as to the entrance of the wilderness from the Euphrates River , because their cattle were multiplied in the land of Gilead . * And in the days of Saul they made war with the Hagarites , and they fell by their hand . And they lived in their tents , to all the face of the east of Gilead .
