< 1 Chronicles 5 >

2 for Judah prevailed among his brethren, and of him was the prince, but the birthright was Joseph's),

曾同哈革爾人、耶突爾人、納菲士人和諾達布人作過戰。
20 and they were helped against them, and the Hagarites were delivered into their hand, and all that were with them; for they cried to God in the battle, and he was intreated of them, because they put their trust in him.
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。

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。
26 And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul king of Assyria, and the spirit of Tilgath-Pilneser king of Assyria, and he carried them away, the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh, and brought them to Halah, and Habor, and Hara, and to the river Gozan, — unto this day.
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]
