Ilmaan Yihuudaa: Faares, Hezroon, Karmii, Huurii fi Sobaal.

2 Reaiah the son of Shobal became the father of Jahath; and Jahath became the father of Ahumai and Lahad. These are the families of the Zorathites.

Reʼaayaan ilmi Sobaal abbaa Yahaatiiti; Yahaati immoo abbaa Ahuumaayii fi Laahadii ti. Isaan kunneen balbalawwan Zoraatotaa ti.

3 These were the sons of Etam: Jezreel, and Ishma, and Idbash; and the name of their sister was Hazzelelponi;

Ilmaan Eexaam kanneenii dha: Yizriʼeel, Yishmaa fi Yidbaashi. Obboleettiin isaanii immoo Hazelelphoonii jedhamti.

4 and Penuel the father of Gedor, and Ezer the father of Hushah. These are the sons of Hur, the firstborn of Ephrathah, the father of Bethlehem.

5 Ashhur the father of Tekoa had two wives, Helah and Naarah.

Ashihuur abbaan Teqooʼaa niitota lama kanneen Heelaa fi Naʼaraa jedhaman qaba ture.

6 Naarah bore him Ahuzzam, and Hepher, and Temeni, and Haahashtari. These were the sons of Naarah.

Naʼaraan ilmaan Ahuzaam, Heefer, Teemenii fi Haaʼahashitaar jedhaman deesseef. Ilmaan Naʼaraa isaan kanneen turan.

8 And Koz became the father of Anub, and Zobebah, and the families of Aharhel the son of Harum.

Qoosi abbaa Anuub, abbaa Hazobeebaa fi abbaa balbalawwan Ahariheel ilma Haaruumiti.

9 And Jabez was more honorable than his brothers, and his mother named him Jabez, saying, "Because I bore him with pain."

Yaabeex nama obboloota isaa caalaa ulfina qabu ture; haatii isaa, “Ani dhiphinaanan isa daʼe” jettee Yaabeex jettee isa moggaafte.

10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, "Oh that you would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, and that your hand might be with me, and that you would keep me from evil, so that it might not cause me pain." And God granted him that which he requested.

Yaabeex immoo akkana jedhee Waaqa Israaʼelitti iyyate; “Ati na eebbisi; biyya koos naaf balʼisi! Akka ani hin miidhamnee fi akka ani dhiphina jalaa baʼuuf harki kee na wajjin haa jiraatu.” Waaqnis waan inni kadhate sana ni kenneef.

11 Chelub the brother of Shuhah became the father of Mehir, who was the father of Eshton.

Kiluub obboleessi Shuhaa abbaa Mihiirii ti; Mehiir immoo abbaa Eshitooniti.

12 Eshton became the father of Beth Rapha, and Paseah, and Tehinnah the father of Ir Nahash. These are the men of Rechab.

Eshitoonis abbaa Beet Raafaan, abbaa Faasehaa fi Tehiinaa ti; Tahiinaan immoo abbaa Iir Naahaashii ti. Isaan kunneen namoota Reekaa ti.

Ilmaan Qenaz: Otniiʼeelii fi Seraayaa. Ilmaan Otniiʼeel: Hataatii fi Maʼoonotaayi.

14 And Meonothai became the father of Ophrah, and Seraiah became the father of Joab the father of Ge Harashim; for they were craftsmen.

Meʼoonotaayi abbaa Ofraa ti. Seraayaan abbaa Yooʼaabii ti; Yooʼaab immoo abbaa Gee Haraashiimii ti. Maqaan kun sababii isaan ogummaa hojii harkaa qabaniif kennameef.

15 The sons of Caleb the son of Jephunneh: Ir, and Elah, and Naam; and the sons of Elah: Kenaz.

17 The sons of Ezrah: Jether, and Mered, and Epher, and Jalon. And Jether became the father of Miriam, and Shammai, and Ishbah the father of Eshtemoa.

Ilmaan Izraa: Yeteer, Mered, Eeferii fi Yaaloon. Niitota Mered keessaa isheen tokko Miiriyaam, Shamaayii fi Yishibaa abbaa Eshtimoʼaa sana deesse.

18 His Judean wife bore Jered the father of Gedor, and Heber the father of Soco, and Jekuthiel the father of Zanoah. These are the sons of Bithiah the daughter of Pharaoh, whom Mered took.

Niitiin isaa dubartiin Yihuudaa sunis Yaared abbaa Gedoor, Hebeer abbaa Sookooniitii fi Yequutiiʼeel abbaa Zaanoʼaa deesse. Isaan kunneen ijoollee Bitiyaa intala Faraʼoon kan Mered fuudhe sanaa ti.

19 The sons of his Judean wife, the sister of Naham, were the father of Keilah the Garmite, and Eshtemoa the Maacathite.

Ilmaan niitiin Hoodiyaa obboleettiin Naham sun deesse: Abbaa Qeyiilaa namicha Garmii sanaatii fi Eshtimoʼaa namicha Maʼakaa ti.

20 The sons of Shimon: Amnon, and Rinnah, Ben Hanan, and Tilon. The sons of Ishi: Zoheth and Ben Zoheth.

Ilmaan Simiʼoon: Amnoon, Riinaa, Ben-Haanaanii fi Tiiloon. Ilmaan Yishiʼii: Zoheetii fi Ben-Zoheetii ti.

21 The sons of Shelah the son of Judah: Er the father of Lecah, and Laadah the father of Mareshah, and the families of the house of the linen workers at Beth Ashbea;

22 and Jokim, and the men of Cozeba, and Joash, and Saraph, who had married in Moab, and returned to Lehem. The records are ancient.

Yooqiim, namoota Koozeebaa, Yooʼaashii fi Saaraaf isa Moʼaabii fi Yaashubiileheem bulchu. Barreeffamni kunneenis kan bara durii ti.

23 These were the potters, and the inhabitants of Netaim and Gederah. They lived there with the king in his service.

Isaanis suphee dhooftuu Nexaayiimii fi Gedeeraa keessa jiraatan turan; jarri kun mootichaaf hojjechaa achi jiraatu ture.

24 The sons of Simeon: Jemuel, and Jamin, Jakin, Zohar, Shaul;

Ilmaan Simiʼoon: Nemuuʼeel, Yaamiin, Yaariib, Zeraa fi Shaawul;

25 Shallum his son, Mibsam his son, Mishma his son.

Shaluum ilma Saaʼuul ture; Mibsaam ilma Shaluumiti; Mishmaa immoo ilma Mabsaamiti.

26 The descendants of Mishma: Hammuel his son, Zakkur his son, Shimei his son.

Ilmaan Mishmaa: Ilma isaa Hamuuʼeel, ilma isaa Zakuurii fi ilma isaa Shimeʼii.

27 Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters; but his brothers did not have many children, neither did all their families multiply like the people of Judah.

Shimeʼiin ilmaan kudha jaʼaa fi intallan jaʼa qaba ture; obboloonni isaa garuu ijoollee hedduu hin qaban ture; sababii kanaaf balbalawwan isaanii hundinuu akka gosa Yihuudaa baayʼee hin turre.

28 They lived at Beersheba, and Shema, and Moladah, and Hazar Shual,

Isaanis Bersheebaa, Molaadaa, Hazar Shuuʼaal,

29 and at Balah, and at Ezem, and at Tolad,

Bilihaa, Ezem, Toolaad,

30 and at Bethuel, and at Hormah, and at Ziklag,

Betuuʼeel, Hormaa, Siiqlaag,

31 and at Beth Marcaboth, and Hazar Susim, and at Beth Biri, and at Shaaraim. These were their cities until David became king.

Beet Markaabot, Hazar Susiim, Beet Biirii fi Shaʼarayiim keessa jiraatan. Magaalaawwan kunneen hamma bara mootummaa Daawitiitti magaalaawwan isaanii turan.

32 Their villages were Etam, and Ain, Rimmon, and Token, and Ashan, five cities;

Akkasumas gandoota Eexaam, Ayin, Reemoon, Tookkenii fi Ashaan jechuunis magaalaa shananii fi

33 and all their villages that were around the same cities as far as Baal. These were their habitations, and they have their genealogy.

gandoota naannoo isaaniitti argaman hunda keessa hamma Baʼaaliitti jiraatu ture. Kunneen iddoo isaan jiraatanii dha. Isaanis galmee hidda dhaloota isaanii kaawwatanii jiran.

34 Meshobab, and Jamlech, and Joshah the son of Amaziah,

Meshoobaab, Yamleek, Yooshaa ilma Amasiyaa,

35 and Joel, and Jehu the son of Joshibiah, the son of Seraiah, the son of Asiel,

Yooʼeel, Yehuu ilma Yooshibiyaa, ilma Seraayaa, ilma Asiiʼeel,

36 and Elioenai, and Jaakobah, and Jeshohaiah, and Asaiah, and Adiel, and Jesimiel, and Benaiah,

akkasumas Eliiyooʼeenayi, Yaaʼiqoobaa, Yashoohayaa, Asaayaa, Aadiiʼeel, Yesiimiʼeel, Benaayaa,

37 and Ziza the son of Shiphi, the son of Allon, the son of Jedaiah, the son of Shimri, the son of Shemaiah—

Ziizaa ilma Shiifii, ilma Aloon, ilma Yedaayaa, ilma Shimrii, ilma Shemaaʼiyaa.

38 these mentioned by name were leaders in their families. And their ancestral houses increased greatly.

Namoonni maqaan isaanii kanaa olitti himame kunneen hooggantoota balbala isaanii turan. Baayʼinni maatii isaaniis akka malee dabalaa dhufe;

39 They went to the entrance of Gerar, even to the east side of the valley, to seek pasture for their flocks.

isaanis bushaayee isaaniitiif lafa dheedaa barbaacha hamma moggaa Gedoor kan gama baʼa sululaa jiru sanaatti deeman.

40 They found fat pasture and good, and the land was wide, and quiet, and peaceable; for those who lived there before were of Ham.

Isaanis naannoo sanatti lafa dheedaa gabbataa fi gaarii argatan; lafni sunis balʼaa, kan nagaa fi tasgabbii qabu ture. Bara durii gosoonni Haamii naannoo sana jiraachaa turan.

41 These written by name came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and struck their tents, and The Meunites who were found there, and destroyed them utterly to this day, and lived in their place; because there was pasture there for their flocks.

Namoonni maqaan isaanii dhaʼame kunneen bara Hisqiyaas mootii Yihuudaa ture keessa dhufan. Isaan akkuma hamma harʼaatti illee mulʼatu qubata Kaamotaatii fi Meʼuunoota achi jiraachaa turanii dhaʼanii guutumaan guutuutti isaan barbadeessan. Ergasiis sababii lafa dheedaa balʼaa bushaayee isaaniitiif argataniif lafa jaraa irra ni qubatan.

42 Some of them, even of the descendants of Simeon, five hundred men, went to Mount Seir, having for their leaders Pelatiah, and Neariah, and Rephaiah, and Uzziel, the sons of Ishi.

Simiʼoonota kanneen keessaa namoonni dhibba shan ilmaan Yishiʼii Phelaatiyaa, Naʼaariyaa, Refaayaa fi Uziiʼeel hoogganamanii biyya gaaraa Seeʼiir weeraran.

43 They struck the remnant of the Amalekites who escaped, and have lived there to this day.

Isaanis Amaaleqoota miliqanii hafan balleessanii hamma harʼaatti achuma jiraatan.
