1 Chronicles 5

1 NOW the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel, (for he was the firstborn; but, forasmuch as he defiled his father’s bed, his birthright was given unto the sons of Joseph the son of Israel: and the genealogy is not to be reckoned after the birthright.

Filii quoque Ruben primogeniti Israel (Ipse quippe fuit primogenitus eius: sed cum violasset thorum patris sui, data sunt primogenita eius filiis Ioseph filii Israel, et non est ille reputatus in primogenitum.

2 For Judah prevailed above his brethren, and of him came the chief ruler; but the birthright was Joseph’s: )

Porro Iudas, qui erat fortissimus inter fratres suos, de stirpe eius principes germinati sunt: primogenita autem reputata sunt Ioseph.)

3 The sons, I say, of Reuben the firstborn of Israel were, Hanoch, and Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.

filii ergo Ruben primogeniti Israel: Enoch, et Phallu, Esron, et Carmi.

4 The sons of Joel; Shemaiah his son, Gog his son, Shimei his son,

Filii Ioel: Samia filius eius, Gog filius eius, Semei filius eius,

5 Micah his son, Reaia his son, Baal his son,

Micha filius eius, Reia filius eius, Baal filius eius,

6 Beerah his son, whom Tilgath-pilneser king of Assyria carried away captive: he was prince of the Reubenites.

Beera filius eius, quem captivum duxit Thelgathphalnasar rex Assyriorum, et fuit princeps in tribu Ruben.

7 And his brethren by their families, when the genealogy of their generations was reckoned, were the chief, Jeiel, and Zechariah,

Fratres autem eius, et universa cognatio eius, quando numerabantur per familias suas, habuerunt principes Iehiel, et Zachariam.

8 And Bela the son of Azaz, the son of Shema, the son of Joel, who dwelt in Aroer, even unto Nebo and Baal-meon:

Porro Bala filius Azaz, filii Samma, filii Ioel, ipse habitavit in Aroer usque ad Nebo, et Beelmeon.

9 And eastward he inhabited unto the entering in of the wilderness from the river Euphrates: because their cattle were multiplied in the land of Gilead.

Contra orientalem quoque plagam habitavit usque ad introitum eremi, et flumen Euphraten. Multum quippe iumentorum numerum possidebant in Terra Galaad.

10 And in the days of Saul they made war with the Hagarites, who fell by their hand: and they dwelt in their tents throughout all the east land of Gilead.

In diebus autem Saul præliati sunt contra Agareos, et interfecerunt illos, habitaveruntque pro eis in tabernaculis eorum, in omni plaga, quæ respicit ad Orientem Galaad.

11 And the children of Gad dwelt over against them, in the land of Bashan unto Salchah:

Filii vero Gad e regione eorum habitaverunt in Terra Basan usque Selcha:

12 Joel the chief, and Shapham the next, and Jaanai, and Shaphat in Bashan.

Ioel in capite, et Saphan secundus: Ianai autem, et Saphat in Basan.

13 And their brethren of the house of their fathers were, Michael, and Meshullam, and Sheba, and Jorai, and Jachan, and Zia, and Heber, seven.

Fratres vero eorum secundum domos cognationum suarum, Michael, et Mosollam, et Sebe, et Iorai, et Iachan, et Zie, et Heber, septem.

14 These are the children of Abihail the son of Huri, the son of Jaroah, the son of Gilead, the son of Michael, the son of Jeshishai, the son of Jahdo, the son of Buz;

Hi filii Abihail, filii Huri, filii Iara, filii Galaad, filii Michael, filii Iesesi, filii Ieddo, filii Buz.

15 Ahi the son of Abdiel, the son of Guni, chief of the house of their fathers.

Fratres quoque filii Abdiel, filii Guni, princeps domus in familiis suis.

16 And they dwelt in Gilead in Bashan, and in her towns, and in all the suburbs of Sharon, upon their borders.

Et habitaverunt in Galaad, et in Basan, et in viculis eius, et in cunctis suburbanis Saron, usque ad terminos.

17 All these were reckoned by genealogies in the days of Jotham king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam king of Israel.

Omnes hi, numerati sunt in diebus Ioathan regis Iuda, et in diebus Ieroboam regis Israel.

18 The sons of Reuben, and the Gadites, and half the tribe of Manasseh, of valiant men, men able to bear buckler and sword, and to shoot with bow, and skilful in war, were four and forty thousand seven hundred and threescore, that went out to the war.

Filii Ruben, et Gad, et dimidiæ tribus Manasse viri bellatores, scuta portantes, et gladios, et tendentes arcum, eruditique ad prælia quadragintaquattuor millia, et septingenti sexaginta procedentes ad pugnam.

19 And they made war with the Hagarites, with Jetur, and Nephish, and Nodab.

Dimicaverunt contra Agareos: Ituræi vero, et Naphis, et Nodab

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.

præbuerunt eis auxilium. Traditique sunt in manus eorum Agarei, et universi, qui fuerant cum eis, quia Deum invocaverunt cum præliarentur: et exaudivit eos, eo quod credidissent in eum.

21 And they took away their cattle; of their camels fifty thousand, and of sheep two hundred and fifty thousand, and of asses two thousand, and of men an hundred thousand.

Ceperuntque omnia quæ possederant, camelorum quinquaginta millia, et ovium ducenta quinquaginta millia, et asinos duo millia, et animas hominum centum millia.

22 For there fell down many slain, because the war was of God. And they dwelt in their steads until the captivity.

Vulnerati autem multi corruerunt: fuit enim bellum Domini. Habitaveruntque pro eis usque ad transmigrationem.

23 And the children of the half tribe of Manasseh dwelt in the land: they increased from Bashan unto Baal-hermon and Senir, and unto mount Hermon.

Filii quoque dimidiæ tribus Manasse possederunt terram a finibus Basan usque Baal, Hermon, et Sanir, et montem Hermon, ingens quippe numerus erat.

24 And these were the heads of the house of their fathers, even Epher, and Ishi, and Eliel, and Azriel, and Jeremiah, and Hodaviah, and Jahdiel, mighty men of valour, famous men, and heads of the house of their fathers.

Et hi fuerunt principes domus cognationis eorum, Epher, et Iesi, et Eliel, et Ezriel, et Ieremia, et Odoia, et Iediel viri fortissimi et potentes, et nominati duces in familiis suis.

25 And they transgressed against the God of their fathers, and went a whoring after the gods of the people of the land, whom God destroyed before them.

Reliquerunt autem Deum patrum suorum, et fornicati sunt post deos populorum terræ, quos abstulit Deus coram eis.

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, even the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh, and brought them unto Halah, and Habor, and Hara, and to the river Gozan, unto this day.

et suscitavit Deus Israel spiritum Phul regis Assyriorum, et spiritum Thelgathphalnasar regis Assur: et transtulit Ruben, et Gad, et dimidiam tribum Manasse, et adduxit eos in Lahela, et in Habor, et Ara, et fluvium Gozan, usque ad diem hanc.
