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 således, at de i Slægtebogen opføres som førstefødte;
The sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel. (Though he was the firstborn, his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph son of Israel because he had defiled his father's bed. That is why Reuben is not listed in the genealogy according to birthright,

and even though Judah became the strongest of his brothers and a ruler came from him, the birthright belonged to Joseph.)
