Første Krønikebog 5
1 Rubens, Israels førstefødtes, Sønner — han var nemlig den førstefødte, men da han vanærede sin Faders Leje, gaves hans Førstefødselsret til Israels Søn Josefs Sønner, dog ikke saaledes, at de i Slægtebogen opføres som førstefødte;
And the sons of Reuben the first-born of Israel (for he was the first-born; but, forasmuch as he defiled his father’s couch, his birthright was given unto the sons of Joseph the son of Israel; and the genealogy is not to be reckoned after the birthright.
2 thi Juda herskede over sine Brødre, og af hans Midte skulde Fyrsten tages, men Førstefødselsretten blev Josefs —
For Judah prevailed above his brethren, and of him came the prince; but the birthright was Joseph’s),
