1 Chronicles 5
1 As for sons of Reuben, firstborn of Israel—for he [is] the firstborn, and on account of his profaning the bed of his father his birthright has been given to the sons of Joseph son of Israel, and [he is] not to be reckoned by genealogy for the birthright,
以色列的長子原是呂便；因他污穢了父親的床，他長子的名分就歸了約瑟。只是按家譜他不算長子。
2 for Judah has been mighty over his brother, and for leader above him, and the birthright [is] to Joseph—
猶大勝過一切弟兄，君王也是從他而出；長子的名分卻歸約瑟。
3 sons of Reuben, firstborn of Israel: Enoch, and Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.
以色列長子呂便的兒子是哈諾、法路、希斯倫、迦米。

7 And his brothers, by their families, in the genealogy of their generations, [are] heads: Jeiel, and Zechariah,
他的弟兄照着宗族，按着家譜作族長的是耶利、撒迦利雅、比拉。
8 and Bela son of Azaz, son of Shema, son of Joel—he is dwelling in Aroer, even to Nebo and Ba‘al-Meon;
比拉是亞撒的兒子；亞撒是示瑪的兒子；示瑪是約珥的兒子；約珥所住的地方是從亞羅珥直到尼波和巴力‧免，
9 and he dwelt at the east even to the entering in of the wilderness, even from the Euphrates River, for their livestock were multiplied in the land of Gilead.
又向東延到幼發拉底河這邊的曠野，因為他們在基列地牲畜增多。
10 And they have made war with the Hagarites in the days of Saul, who fall by their hand, and they dwell in their tents over all the face of the east of Gilead.
掃羅年間，他們與夏甲人爭戰，夏甲人倒在他們手下，他們就在基列東邊的全地，住在夏甲人的帳棚裏。
11 And the sons of Gad have dwelt opposite them in the land of Bashan to Salcah:
迦得的子孫在呂便對面，住在巴珊地，延到撒迦。
12 Joel the head, and Shapham the second, and Jaanai and Shaphat in Bashan;
他們中間有作族長的約珥，有作副族長的沙番，還有雅乃和住在巴珊的沙法。

14 These [are] sons of Abihail son of Huri, son of Jaroah, son of Gilead, son of Michael, son of Jeshishai, son of Jahdo, son of Buz;
這都是亞比孩的兒子。亞比孩是戶利的兒子；戶利是耶羅亞的兒子；耶羅亞是基列的兒子；基列是米迦勒的兒子；米迦勒是耶示篩的兒子；耶示篩是耶哈多的兒子；耶哈多是布斯的兒子。
15 Ahi son of Abdiel, son of Guni, [is] head of the house of their fathers;
還有古尼的孫子、押比疊的兒子亞希。這都是作族長的。
16 and they dwell in Gilead in Bashan, and in her small towns, and in all outskirts of Sharon, on their outskirts;
他們住在基列與巴珊和巴珊的鄉村，並沙崙的郊野，直到四圍的交界。
17 all of them reckoned themselves by genealogy in the days of Jotham king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam king of Israel.
這些人在猶大王約坦並在以色列王耶羅波安年間，都載入家譜。
18 Sons of Reuben, and the Gadite, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh, of sons of valor, men carrying shield and sword, and treading bow, and taught in battle, [are] forty-four thousand and seven hundred and sixty, going out to the host.
呂便人、迦得人，和瑪拿西半支派的人，能拿盾牌和刀劍、拉弓射箭、出征善戰的勇士共有四萬四千七百六十名。
19 And they make war with the Hagarites, and Jetur, and Naphish, and Nodab,
他們與夏甲人、伊突人、拿非施人、挪答人爭戰。
20 and they are helped against them, and the Hagarites are given into their hand, and all who [are] with them, for they cried to God in battle, and He received their plea, because they trusted in Him.
他們得了上帝的幫助，夏甲人和跟隨夏甲的人都交在他們手中；因為他們在陣上呼求上帝，倚賴上帝，上帝就應允他們。
21 And they take their livestock captive—fifty thousand of their camels, and two hundred and fifty thousand sheep, and two thousand donkeys, and one hundred thousand of mankind;
他們擄掠了夏甲人的牲畜，有駱駝五萬，羊二十五萬，驢二千；又有人十萬。
22 for many have fallen pierced, for the battle [is] of God; and they dwell in their stead until the expulsion.
敵人被殺仆倒的甚多，因為這爭戰是出乎上帝。他們就住在敵人的地上，直到被擄的時候。
23 And the sons of the half of the tribe of Manasseh dwelt in the land, from Bashan to Ba‘al-Hermon, and Senir, and Mount Hermon; they have multiplied.

24 And these [are] heads of the house of their fathers: even Epher, and Ishi, and Eliel, and Azriel, and Jeremiah, and Hodaviah, and Jahdiel, men mighty in valor, men of renown, heads of the house of their fathers.
他們的族長是以弗、以示、以列、亞斯列、耶利米、何達威雅、雅疊，都是大能的勇士，是有名的人，也是作族長的。
25 And they trespass against the God of their fathers, and go whoring after the gods of the peoples of the land whom God destroyed from their presence;
他們得罪了他們列祖的上帝，隨從那地之民的神行邪淫；這民就是上帝在他們面前所除滅的。
26 and the God of Israel stirs up the spirit of Pul king of Asshur, and the spirit of Tilgath-Pilneser king of Asshur, and he removes them—even the Reubenite, and the Gadite, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh—and brings them to Halah, and Habor, and Hara, and the River of Gozan to this day.
故此，以色列的上帝激動亞述王普勒和亞述王提革拉‧毗列色的心，他們就把呂便人、迦得人、瑪拿西半支派的人擄到哈臘、哈博、哈拉與歌散河邊，直到今日還在那裏。
