40 There they found rich, good pasture, and the land was spacious, peaceful, and quiet; for some Hamites had lived there formerly.
Ha chọtara ebe ịta ahịhịa anụ ụlọ mara mma, nke sara mbara, nke dị jụụ, bụrụkwa ebe nsogbu na-adịghị. Ụfọdụ nʼime ụmụ Ham ebiela nʼebe ahụ na mbụ.
41 These who were noted by name came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah. They attacked the Hamites and Meunites there in their dwellings, devoting them to destruction even to this day. Then they settled in their place, because there was pasture for their flocks.
Ndị ikom ndị a e dere aha ha nʼakwụkwọ usoro ọmụmụ bịara nʼoge Hezekaya na-achị dịka eze Juda. Ha busoro ụmụ Ham agha nʼebe obibi ha, busokwa ndị Meunim bi nʼebe ahụ agha, bibie ha kpamkpam, dịka ọ dị ruo taa. Emesịa ha bichiri ebe ahụ nʼihi na ebe ịta ahịhịa nke igwe anụ ụlọ ha nʼebe ahụ.

43 and struck down the remnant of the Amalekites who had escaped. And they have lived there to this day.
Ha gburu ndị Amalek fọdụrụ ndụ nʼebe ahụ, bichie ala ahụ ruo taa.
