歷代志上 5
1 [勒烏本支派]以色列的長子勒烏本的子孫：─他雖是長子，但因他玷污了父親的床榻，他長子的權利已轉給了以色列的兒子若瑟的兩個兒子，不過後者在譜系上並沒有列為長子；
And the sons of Reuben the first-born of Israel—for he was the first-born; but, when the defiled his father's bed, was his birthright given unto the sons of Joseph the son of Israel: so that the genealogy is not to be reckoned after the first-birth.
2 長子的權利雖歸若瑟，但兄弟中猶大最為強盛，因為領袖由他而生。
For Judah became the mightiest of his brothers, and the prince descended from him: while the first-birthright belonged to Joseph, —
3 以色列的長子勒烏本的兒子：哈諾客、帕路、赫茲龍和加爾米。
The sons of Reuben the first-born of Israel were, Chanoch, and Pallu, Chezron, and Carmi.
4 約厄耳的子孫：約厄耳的兒子舍瑪雅，舍瑪雅的兒子哥格，哥格的兒子史米，
The sons of Joel: Shema'yah his son, Gog his son, Shim'i his son,
5 史米的兒子米加，米加的兒子勒阿雅，勒阿雅的兒子巴耳，
Michah his son, Reayah his son, Ba'al his son,
6 巴耳的兒子貝厄辣；他為亞述王提革拉特丕肋色爾擄去；他是勒烏本人的族長。
Beerah his son, whom Tilgath-pilneesser the king of Assyria carried into exile: he was the prince of the Reubenites.
7 他的兄弟們按家族歷代的譜系，為族長的是耶厄耳、則加黎雅、
And his brethren by their families, according to their genealogy after their generations, were, the chief, Je'iel, and Zecharyahu,
8 阿匝次的兒子貝拉；阿匝次是舍瑪的兒子，舍瑪是約厄耳的兒子。勒烏本居住在阿洛厄爾，直到乃波和巴耳默紅一帶，
And Bela' the son of 'Azaz, the son of Shema', the son of Joel, who dwelt in 'Aro'er, and as far as Nebo and Ba'al-me'on;
9 向東延至幼發拉的河岸曠野邊，因為他在基勒阿得地方有大批的牲畜。
And to the eastward he dwelt as far as the entrance of the wilderness from the river Euphrates; because their cattle were numerous in the land of Gil'ad.
10 在撒烏耳時代，他們同哈革爾人作戰，哈革爾人失敗，勒烏本子孫佔領了基肋阿得東部所有的地域，佔有他們的帳幕。[加得支派]
And in the days of Saul they made war with the Hagarenes, who fell by their hand; and they dwelt in their tents in the whole front of the land to the east of Gil'ad.
11 加得的子孫靠近他們，住在巴商地方直到撒耳加：
And the children of Gad dwelt alongside of them, in the land of Bashan as far as Salchah.
12 約厄耳為首，沙凡為副，其次為雅乃和巴商的沙法特。
Joel the chief, and Shapham the next, and Ja'nai, and Shaphat in Bashan.
13 按家族，他們的兄弟是：米加耳、默叔藍、舍巴、約賴、雅甘、齊雅和厄貝爾七人。
And their brethren according to their family divisions were, Michael, and Meshullam, and Sheba', and Jorai, and Ya'kan, and Zia', and 'Eber, seven.
14 他們都是阿彼海耳的子孫：阿彼海耳是胡黎的兒子，胡黎是雅洛亞的兒子，雅洛亞是基肋阿得的兒子，基肋阿得是米加耳的兒子，米加耳是耶史賽的兒子，耶史賽是雅多的兒子，雅多是步次的兒子。
These are the children of Abichayil the son of Churi, the son of Jaroach, the son of Gil'ad, the son of Michael, the son of Jeshishai, the son of Jachdo, the son of Buz:
15 古尼的孫子，阿貝狄耳的兒子阿希，是他們一家的族長。
Achi the son of Abdiel the son of Guni, the chief of their family division.
16 他們住在基肋阿得、巴商和所屬各村鎮，以及息黎雍直到邊界所有的牧場：
And they dwelt in Gil'ad, in Bashan, and in its minor towns, and in all the open districts of Sharon, as far as their terminations.
17 以上所有的加得人，是在猶大王約堂與以色列王雅洛貝罕時代所統計的。
All these were recorded by their genealogies in the days of Jotham the king of Judah, and in the days of Jerobo'am the king of Israel.
18 勒烏本、加得和默納協半支派的子孫，都是英勇的軍人；能持盾操刀，善射好戰，出征上陣的人，有四萬四千七百六十。
The sons of Reuben, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Menasseh, of valiant men, men able to bear shield and sword, and to draw the bow, and practised in war, were four and forty thousand seven hundred and sixty, that went out to the army.
19 曾同哈革爾人、耶突爾人、納菲士人和諾達布人作過戰。
And they made war with the Hagarenes, and Jetur, and Naphish, and Nodab.
20 作戰時蒙天主助佑，哈革爾人和所有聯軍都落在他們手中，因為他們作戰時呼求了天主，依賴了天主，也蒙了垂允。
And they obtained help against them, and the Hagarenes were delivered into their hand, and all that were with them; for to God they cried in the battle, and he was entreated by them; because they put their trust in him.
21 他們掠奪了敵人的牲畜：駱駝五萬，羊二十五萬，驢二千，人口十萬。
And they led away captive their cattle: of their camels fifty thousand, and of sheep two hundred and fifty thousand, and of asses two thousand, and of human beings one hundred thousand.
22 因有天主助戰，敵人傷亡慘重。他們居住在那地方，直到充軍的時期。[默納協半支派]
For there fell down many slain; because the war was of God. And they dwelt in their stead until the exile.
23 默納協半支派的子孫居住的地方，由巴商直到巴耳赫爾孟、色尼爾和赫爾孟山；他們人數眾多。
And the children of the half tribe of Menasseh dwelt in the land: from Bashan unto Ba'al-chermon and Senir and mount Chermon were they numerous.
24 他們各家的族長如下：厄斐爾、依史、厄里耳、阿次黎耳、耶勒米雅、曷達委雅和雅狄耳：都是英勇的軍人，出名的人物，家族的首領。
And these were the heads of their family divisions: namely, 'Epher, and Yish'i, and Eliel, and 'Azriel, and Jeremiah, and Hodavyah, and Jachdiel, mighty men of valor, famous men, [and] heads of their family divisions.
25 但是，他們卻背叛了自己祖先的天主，而事奉了當地人民的神，這些人民原是天主曾在他們前所消滅的。
But they trespassed against the God of their fathers, and went astray after the gods of the people of the land, whom God had destroyed from before them.
26 因此，以色列的天主激起了亞述王普耳，即亞述王提革拉丕肋色爾的心，將勒烏本人、加得人和默納協半支派的人擄走，送到哈拉、哈波爾、哈辣和哥倉河一帶；他們直到今日仍在那裏。[充軍前亞郎的子孫]
And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul the king of Assyria, and the spirit of Tilgath-pilnesser the king of Assyria, and he carried them into exile, even the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Menasseh, and brought them unto Chalach, and Chabor, and Hara, and to the river Gozan, even until this day.
