1 Chronicles 4

1 The descendants of Judah: Perez, Hezron, Carmi, Hur, and Shobal.

1 بَنُو يَهُوذَا: فَارَصُ وَحَصْرُونُ وَكَرْمِي وَحُورُ وَشُوبَالُ.

2 Reaiah son of Shobal was the father of Jahath, and Jahath was the father of Ahumai and Lahad. These were the clans of the Zorathites.

2 وَرَآيَا بْنُ شُوبَالَ وَلَدَ يَحَثَ، وَيَحَثُ وَلَدَ أَخُومَايَ وَلَاهَدَ. هَذِهِ عَشَائِرُ ٱلصَّرْعِيِّينَ.

3 These were the sons of Etam: Jezreel, Ishma, and Idbash. And their sister was named Hazzelelponi.

3 وَهَؤُلَاءِ لِأَبِي عِيطَمَ: يَزْرَعِيلُ وَيَشْمَا وَيَدْبَاشُ، وَٱسْمُ أُخْتِهِمْ هَصَّلَلْفُونِي.

4 Penuel was the father of Gedor, and Ezer was the father of Hushah. These were the descendants of Hur, the firstborn of Ephrathah and the father of Bethlehem.

4 وَفَنُوئِيلُ أَبُو جَدُورَ، وَعَازَرُ أَبُو حُوشَةَ. هَؤُلَاءِ بَنُو حُورَ بِكْرِ أَفْرَاتَةَ أَبِي بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ.

5 Ashhur the father of Tekoa had two wives, Helah and Naarah.

5 وَكَانَ لِأَشْحُورَ أَبِي تَقُوعَ ٱمْرَأَتَانِ: حَلَاةُ وَنَعْرَةُ.

6 Naarah bore to him Ahuzzam, Hepher, Temeni, and Haahashtari. These were the descendants of Naarah.

6 وَوَلَدَتْ لَهُ نَعْرَةُ: أَخُزَّامَ وَحَافَرَ وَٱلتَّيْمَانِيَّ وَٱلْأَخَشْتَارِيَّ. هَؤُلَاءِ بَنُو نَعْرَةَ.

7 The sons of Helah were Zereth, Zohar, Ethnan,

7 وَبَنُو حَلَاةَ: صَرَثُ وَصُوحَرُ وَأَثْنَانُ.

8 and Koz, who was the father of Anub and Zobebah and of the clans of Aharhel son of Harum.

8 وَقُوصُ وَلَدَ: عَانُوبَ وَهَصُوبِيبَةَ وَعَشَائِرَ أَخَرْحِيلَ بْنِ هَارُمَ.

9 Now Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez, saying, “Because I bore him in pain.”

9 وَكَانَ يَعْبِيصُ أَشْرَفَ مِنْ إِخْوَتِهِ. وَسَمَّتْهُ أُمُّهُ يَعْبِيصَ قَائِلَةً: «لِأَنِّي وَلَدْتُهُ بِحُزْنٍ».

10 And Jabez called out to the God of Israel, “If only You would bless me and enlarge my territory! May Your hand be with me and keep me from harm, so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted the request of Jabez.

10 وَدَعَا يَعْبِيصُ إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلًا: «لَيْتَكَ تُبَارِكُنِي، وَتُوَسِّعُ تُخُومِي، وَتَكُونُ يَدُكَ مَعِي، وَتَحْفَظُنِي مِنَ ٱلشَّرِّ حَتَّى لَا يُتْعِبُنِي». فَآتَاهُ ٱللهُ بِمَا سَأَلَ.

11 Chelub the brother of Shuhah was the father of Mehir, who was the father of Eshton.

11 وَكَلُوبُ أَخُو شُوحَةَ وَلَدَ مَحِيرَ. هُوَ أَبُو أَشْتُونَ.

12 Eshton was the father of Beth-rapha, of Paseah, and of Tehinnah the father of Ir-nahash. These were the men of Recah.

12 وَأَشْتُونُ وَلَدَ بَيْتَ رَافَا وَفَاسِحَ وَتَحِنَّةَ أَبَا مَدِينَةِ نَاحَاشَ. هَؤُلَاءِ أَهْلُ رَيْكَةَ.

13 The sons of Kenaz: Othniel and Seraiah. The sons of Othniel: Hathath and Meonothai.

13 وَٱبْنَا قَنَازَ: عُثْنِيئِيلُ وَسَرَايَا، وَٱبْنُ عُثْنِيئِيلَ حَثَاثُ.

14 Meonothai was the father of Ophrah, and Seraiah was the father of Joab, the father of those living in Ge-harashim, which was given this name because its people were craftsmen.

14 وَمَعُونُوثَايُ وَلَدَ عَفْرَةَ، وَسَرَايَا وَلَدَ يُوآبَ أَبَا وَادِي ٱلصُّنَّاعِ، لِأَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا صُنَّاعًا.

15 The sons of Caleb son of Jephunneh: Iru, Elah, and Naam. The son of Elah: Kenaz.

15 وَبَنُو كَالِبَ بْنِ يَفُنَّةَ: عِيرُو وَأَيْلَةُ وَنَاعِمُ. وَٱبْنُ أَيْلَةَ قَنَازُ.

16 The sons of Jehallelel: Ziph, Ziphah, Tiria, and Asarel.

16 وَبَنُو يَهْلَلْئِيلَ: زِيفُ وَزِيفَةُ وَتِيرِيَّا وَأَسَرْئِيلُ.

17 The sons of Ezrah: Jether, Mered, Epher, and Jalon. And Mered’s wife Bithiah gave birth to Miriam, Shammai, and Ishbah the father of Eshtemoa.

17 وَبَنُو عَزْرَةَ: يَثَرُ وَمَرَدُ وَعَافِرُ وَيَالُونُ. وَحَبِلَتْ بِمَرْيَمَ وَشَمَّايَ وَيِشْبَحَ أَبِي أَشْتَمُوعَ.

18 These were the children of Pharaoh’s daughter Bithiah. Mered also took a Judean wife, who gave birth to Jered the father of Gedor, Heber the father of Soco, and Jekuthiel the father of Zanoah.

18 وَٱمْرَأَتُهُ ٱلْيَهُودِيَّةُ وَلَدَتْ يَارِدَ أَبَا جَدُورَ، وَحَابِرَ أَبَا سُوكُوَ، وَيَقُوثِيئِيلَ أَبَا زَانُوحَ. وَهَؤُلَاءِ بَنُو بِثْيَةَ بِنْتِ فِرْعَوْنَ ٱلَّتِي أَخَذَهَا مَرَدُ.

19 The sons of Hodiah’s wife, the sister of Naham, were the fathers of Keilah the Garmite and of Eshtemoa the Maacathite.

19 وَبَنُو ٱمْرَأَتِهِ ٱلْيَهُودِيَّةِ أُخْتِ نَحَمَ: أَبِي قَعِيلَةَ ٱلْجَرْمِيِّ وَأَشْتَمُوعَ ٱلْمَعْكِيِّ.

20 The sons of Shimon: Amnon, Rinnah, Ben-hanan, and Tilon. The descendants of Ishi: Zoheth and Ben-zoheth.

20 وَبَنُو شِيمُونَ: أَمْنُونُ وَرِنَّةُ بْنُ حَانَانَ، وَتِيلُونُ. وَٱبْنَا يِشْعِي: زُوحَيْتُ وَبَنْزُوحَيْتُ.

21 The sons of Shelah son of Judah: Er the father of Lecah, Laadah the father of Mareshah and the clans of the linen workers at Beth-ashbea,

21 بَنُو شِيلَةَ بْنِ يَهُوذَا: عِيرُ أَبُو لَيْكَةَ، وَلَعْدَةُ أَبُو مَرِيشَةَ، وَعَشَائِرِ بَيْتِ عَامِلِي ٱلْبَزِّ مِنْ بَيْتِ أَشْبَيْعَ،

22 Jokim, the men of Cozeba, and Joash and Saraph, who ruled in Moab and Jashubi-lehem. (These names are from ancient records.)

22 وَيُوقِيمُ، وَأَهْلُ كَزِيبَا، وَيُوآشُ وَسَارَافُ، ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ أَصْحَابُ مُوآبَ وَيَشُوبِي لَحْمٍ. وَهَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورُ قَدِيمَةٌ.

23 These were the potters who lived at Netaim and Gederah. They lived there in the service of the king.

23 هَؤُلَاءِ هُمُ ٱلْخَزَّافُونَ وَسُكَّانُ نَتَاعِيمَ وَجَدِيرَةَ. أَقَامُوا هُنَاكَ مَعَ ٱلْمَلِكِ لِشُغْلِهِ.

24 The descendants of Simeon: Nemuel, Jamin, Jarib, Zerah, and Shaul.

24 بَنُو شِمْعُونَ: نَمُوئِيلُ وَيَامِينُ وَيَرِيبُ وَزَارَحُ وَشَاوُلُ،

25 The sons of Shaul: Shallum, Mibsam, and Mishma.

25 وَٱبْنُهُ شَلُّومُ وَٱبْنُهُ مِبْسَامُ وَٱبْنُهُ مِشْمَاعُ.

26 The sons of Mishma: Hammuel, Zaccur, and Shimei.

26 وَبَنُو مِشْمَاعَ: حَمُوئِيلُ ٱبْنُهُ، زَكُّورُ ٱبْنُهُ، شِمْعِي ٱبْنُهُ.

27 Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters, but his brothers did not have many children, so their whole clan did not become as numerous as the sons of Judah.

27 وَكَانَ لِشِمْعِي سِتَّةَ عَشَرَ ٱبْنًا وَسِتُّ بَنَاتٍ. وَأَمَّا إِخْوَتُهُ فَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُمْ بَنُونَ كَثِيرُونَ، وَكُلُّ عَشَائِرِهِمْ لَمْ يَكْثُرُوا مِثْلَ بَنِي يَهُوذَا.

28 They lived in Beersheba, Moladah, Hazar-shual,

28 وَأَقَامُوا فِي بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ وَمُولَادَةَ وَحَصَرِ شُوعَالَ

29 Bilhah, Ezem, Tolad,

29 وَفِي بِلْهَةَ وَعَاصِمَ وَتُولَادَ

30 Bethuel, Hormah, Ziklag,

30 وَفِي بَتُوئِيلَ وَحُرْمَةَ وَصِقْلَغَ

31 Beth-marcaboth, Hazar-susim, Beth-biri, and Shaaraim. These were their cities until the reign of David.

31 وَفِي بَيْتِ مَرْكَبُوتَ وَحَصَرِ سُوسِيمَ وَبَيْتِ بِرْئِي وَشَعَرَايِمَ. هَذِهِ مُدُنُهُمْ إِلَى حِينَمَا مَلَكَ دَاوُدُ.

32 And their villages were Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Tochen, and Ashan—five towns—

32 وَقُرَاهُمْ: عِيطَمُ وَعَيْنٌ وَرِمُّونُ وَتُوكَنُ وَعَاشَانُ، خَمْسُ مُدُنٍ.

33 and all their surrounding villages as far as Baal. These were their settlements, and they kept a genealogical record:

33 وَجَمِيعُ قُرَاهُمُ ٱلَّتِي حَوْلَ هَذِهِ ٱلْمُدُنِ إِلَى بَعْلٍ. هَذِهِ مَسَاكِنُهُمْ وَأَنْسَابُهُمْ.

34 Meshobab, Jamlech, Joshah son of Amaziah,

34 وَمَشُوبَابُ وَيَمْلِيكُ وَيُوشَا بْنُ أَمَصْيَا،

35 Joel, Jehu son of Joshibiah (son of Seraiah, son of Asiel),

35 وَيُوئِيلُ وَيَاهُو بْنُ يُوشِبْيَا بْنِ سَرَايَا بْنِ عَسِيئِيلَ،

36 Elioenai, Jaakobah, Jeshohaiah, Asaiah, Adiel, Jesimiel, Benaiah,

36 وَأَلِيُوعِينَايُ وَيَعْقُوبَا وَيَشُوحَايَا وَعَسَايَا وَعَدِيئِيلُ وَيَسِيمِيئِيلُ وَبَنَايَا

37 and Ziza son of Shiphi (son of Allon, son of Jedaiah, son of Shimri, son of Shemaiah).

37 وَزِيزَا بْنُ شِفْعِي بْنِ أَلُّونَ بْنِ يَدَايَا بْنِ شِمْرِي بْنِ شَمْعِيَا.

38 These men listed by name were the leaders of their clans. Their families increased greatly,

38 هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْوَارِدُونَ بِأَسْمَائِهِمْ رُؤَسَاءُ فِي عَشَائِرِهِمْ وَبُيُوتِ آبَائِهِمِ ٱمْتَدُّوا كَثِيرًا،

39 and they journeyed to the entrance of Gedor, to the east side of the valley, in search of pasture for their flocks.

39 وَسَارُوا إِلَى مَدْخَلِ جَدُورَ إِلَى شَرْقِيِّ ٱلْوَادِي لِيُفَتِّشُوا عَلَى مَرْعًى لِمَاشِيَتِهِمْ.

40 There they found rich, good pasture, and the land was spacious, peaceful, and quiet; for some Hamites had lived there formerly.

40 فَوَجَدُوا مَرْعًى خَصِبًا وَجَيِّدًا، وَكَانَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَاسِعَةَ ٱلْأَطْرَافِ مُسْتَرِيحَةً وَمُطْمَئِنَّةً، لِأَنَّ آلَ حَامَ سَكَنُوا هُنَاكَ فِي ٱلْقَدِيمِ.

41 These who were noted by name came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah. They attacked the Hamites in their dwellings as well as the Meunites who were there, devoting them to destruction even to this day. Then they settled in their place, because there was pasture for their flocks.

41 وَجَاءَ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْمَكْتُوبَةُ أَسْمَاؤُهُمْ فِي أَيَّامِ حَزَقِيَّا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا. وَضَرَبُوا خِيَمَهُمْ وَٱلْمَعُونِيِّينَ ٱلَّذِينَ وُجِدُوا هُنَاكَ وَحَرَّمُوهُمْ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ، وَسَكَنُوا مَكَانَهُمْ لِأَنَّ هُنَاكَ مَرْعًى لِمَاشِيَتِهِمْ.

42 And five hundred of these Simeonites led by Pelatiah, Neariah, Rephaiah, and Uzziel, the sons of Ishi, went to Mount Seir

42 وَمِنْهُمْ، مِنْ بَنِي شِمْعُونَ، ذَهَبَ إِلَى جَبَلِ سَعِيرَ خَمْسُ مِئَةِ رَجُلٍ، وَقُدَّامَهُمْ فَلَطْيَا وَنَعْرِيَا وَرَفَايَا وَعُزِّيئِيلُ بَنُو يِشْعِي.

43 and struck down the remnant of the Amalekites who had escaped. And they have lived there to this day.

43 وَضَرَبُوا بَقِيَّةَ ٱلْمُنْفَلِتِينَ مِنْ عَمَالِيقَ، وَسَكَنُوا هُنَاكَ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ.
