* Now the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel Yisra #el #, (for he was the firstborn ; but , forasmuch as he defiled his fathers bed , his birthright was given unto the sons of Joseph the son of Israel Yisra #el #: and the genealogy is not to be reckoned after the birthright . * For Judah prevailed above his brethren , and of him came the chief ruler ; but the birthright was Josephs : ) * The sons , I say , of Reuben the firstborn of Israel were , Hanoch , and Pallu , Hezron , and Carmi . * The sons of Joel Yow #el #; Shemaiah his son , Gog his son , Shimei his son , * Micah his son , Reaia his son , Baal his son , * Beerah his son , whom Tilgathpilneser Tiglathking of Assyria carried away captive : he was prince of the Reubenites R @#uwbeniy #. * And his brethren by their families , when the genealogy # of their generations was reckoned , were the chief ro #sh #, Jeiel Y @#iy #el #, and Zechariah , * And Bela the son of Azaz , the son of Shema , the son of Joel Yow #el #, who dwelt in Aroer #Arow #er #, even unto Nebo and Baalmeon Ba #al M @#own #: * And eastward he inhabited unto the entering in of the wilderness from the river Euphrates : because their cattle were multiplied in the land of Gilead Gil #ad #. * And in the days of Saul they made war with the Hagarites , who fell by their hand : and they dwelt in their tents throughout all the east land of Gilead Gil #ad #. * And the children of Gad dwelt over against them , in the land of Bashan unto Salchah : * Joel the chief ro #sh #, and Shapham the next , and Jaanai Ya #anay #, and Shaphat in Bashan . * And their brethren of the house of their fathers were , Michael Miyka #el #, and Meshullam , and Sheba , and Jorai , and Jachan Ya #kan #, and Zia , and Heber , seven . * These are the children of Abihail the son of Huri , the son of Jaroah , the son of Gilead Gil #ad #, the son of Michael Miyka #el #, the son of Jeshishai , the son of Jahdo , the son of Buz ; * Ahi the son of Abdiel #Abdiy #el #, the son of Guni , chief of the house of their fathers . * And they dwelt in Gilead in Bashan , and in her towns , and in all the suburbs of Sharon , upon their borders towtsa #ah #. * All these were reckoned by genealogies in the days of Jotham king of Judah , and in the days of Jeroboam king of Israel Yisra #el #. * The sons of Reuben R @#uwben #, and the Gadites , and half the tribe of Manasseh , of valiant men , men able to bear buckler and sword , and to shoot with bow , and skilful in war , were four and forty #arba #iym # thousand seven hundred and threescore , that went out to the war . * And they made war with the Hagarites , with Jetur , and Nephish , and Nodab . * And they were helped against them , and the Hagarites were delivered into their hand , and all that were with them : for they cried to God in the battle , and he was intreated of them ; because they put their trust in him . * And they took away their cattle ; of their camels fifty thousand , and of sheep two hundred and fifty thousand , and of asses two thousand , and of men #H5315an hundred thousand . * For there fell down many slain , because the war was of God . And they dwelt in their steads until the captivity . * And the children of the half tribe of Manasseh dwelt in the land : they increased from Bashan unto Baalhermon Ba #aland Senir , and unto mount Hermon . * And these were the heads of the house of their fathers , even Epher , and Ishi Yish #iy #, and Eliel #Eliy #el #, and Azriel #Azriy #el #, and Jeremiah , and Hodaviah , and Jahdiel Yachdiy #el #, mighty men of valour , famous men , and heads of the house of their fathers . * And they transgressed against the God of their fathers , and went a whoring after the gods of the people of the land , whom God destroyed before them . * And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul king of Assyria , and the spirit of Tilgathpilneser Tiglathking of Assyria , and he carried them away , even the Reubenites R @#uwbeniy #, and the Gadites , and the half tribe of Manasseh , and brought them unto Halah , and Habor , and Hara , and to the river Gozan , unto this day .
