9 [There was another descendant of Judah whose name was] Jabez. [He] was more respected than his brothers were. His mother named him Jabez [which means ‘pain’] because she said, “I was enduring much pain when I gave birth to him.”
Jabez nu was heerlijker dan zijn broeders; en zijn moeder had zijn naam Jabez genoemd, zeggende: Want ik heb hem met smarten gebaard.
10 [One day] he prayed to God whom his fellow Israelis [worshiped], saying, “Please greatly bless me and (enlarge my land/give me a lot of land/property). Remain [IDM] with me, and do not allow anyone to harm me. If you do that for me, I will not have any pain.” And God did what Jabez requested him to do.
Want Jabez riep den God Israels aan, zeggende: Indien Gij mij rijkelijk zegenen, en mijn landpale vermeerderen zult, en Uw hand met mij zijn zal, en met het kwade alzo maakt, dat het mij niet smarte! En God liet komen, wat hij begeerde.

Othniel’s sons were Hathath and Meonothai. Meonothai was the father of Ophrah. Seraiah was the father of Joab. Joab was the ancestor of the people who lived in Craftsmen’s Valley. The valley was named that because many of the people who lived there were (craftsmen/men who were experts in making things).

En Meonothai gewon Ofra; en Seraja gewon Joab, den vader des dals der werkmeesters; want zij waren werkmeesters.

23 They made pottery for the king; some of them lived in Netaim [town] and some of them lived in Gederah [town].

26 Mishma’s son was Hammuel. Hammuel’s son was Zaccur. Zaccur’s son was Shimei.
De kinderen van Misma waren dezen: Hammuel zijn zoon, Zaccur zijn zoon, Simei zijn zoon.
27 Shimei had 16 sons and six daughters, but none of his brothers had many children. So the descendants of Simeon never were as many as the descendants of [his younger brother] Judah.
Simei nu had zestien zonen en zes dochteren; maar zijn broeders hadden niet veel kinderen; en hun ganse huisgezin werd zo zeer niet vermenigvuldigd, als van de kinderen van Juda.
28 The descendants of Simeon lived in [these cities and towns]: Beersheba, Moladah, Hazar-Shual,
En zij woonden te Ber-seba, en te Molada, en te Hazar-Sual,
29 Bilhah, Ezem, Tolad,
En te Bilha, en te Ezem, en te Tholad,
30 Bethuel, Hormah, Ziklag,
En te Bethuel, en te Horma, en te Ziklag,
31 Beth-Marcaboth, Hazar-Susim, Beth-Biri, and Shaaraim. They lived in those places until David became king.
En te Beth-markaboth, en te Hazar-Susim, en te Beth-Biri, en te Saaraim. Dit waren hun steden, totdat David koning werd.
32 They also lived in villages near those towns: Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Token, and Ashan.
En hun dorpen waren Etam en Ain, Rimmon en Tochen, en Asan; vijf steden.
33 There were other villages where they lived, as far [southwest] as Baalath [town]. Those were the places where they lived, and their names, according to the family records.
En al haar dorpen, die in den omloop dezer steden waren, tot Baal toe. Dit zijn hun woningen en hun geslachtsrekening voor hen.
34 The men in the following list were the leaders of their clans: Meshobab, Jamlech, Joshah the son of Amaziah, Joel, and Jehu the son of Joshibiah. Joshibiah was the son of Seraiah and the grandson of Asiel. Other clan leaders were Elioenai, Jaakobah, Jeshohaiah, Asaiah, Adiel, Jesimiel, Benaiah, and Ziza. Ziza was the son of Shiphi and the grandson of Allon, who was the son of Jedaiah, who was the son of Shimri, who was the son of Shemaiah. Those families became very large/numerous.
Doch Mesobab, en Jamlech, en Josa, de zoon van Amazia,
En Joel, en Jehu, de zoon van Jesibja, den zoon van Saraja, den zoon van Asiel,
En Eljoenai, en Jaakoba, en Jesohaja, en Asaja, en Adiel, en Jesimeel, en Benaja,
En Ziza, de zoon van Sifei, den zoon van Allon, den zoon van Jedaja, den zoon van Simri, den zoon van Semaja;
Dezen kwamen tot namen, zijnde vorsten in hun huisgezinnen, en de huisgezinnen hunner vaderen braken uit in menigte.
39 They went outside of Gedor [town] on the east side of the valley to look for pastureland for their flocks of sheep.
En zij gingen tot aan den ingang van Gedor tot het oosten des dals, om weide te zoeken voor hun schapen.
40 They found good pastureland with plenty of grass. The place was peaceful and quiet. Previously the descendants of [Noah’s son] Ham had lived there.
En zij vonden vette en goede weide, en een land, wijd van begrip, en stil, en gerust; want die van Cham woonden daar tevoren.
41 But while Hezekiah was the king of Judah, the leaders of the tribe of Simeon came to Gedor and fought against the descendants of Ham and destroyed their tents. They also fought against the descendants of Meun who were living there, and they killed all of them. So now there are no descendants of Meun living there. The descendants of Simeon started to live there, because there was good pastureland there for their sheep.
Dezen nu, die met namen beschreven zijn, kwamen in de dagen van Hizkia, den koning van Juda, en zij sloegen de tenten en woningen dergenen, die daar gevonden werden; en zij verbanden hen, tot op dezen dag; en zij woonden aan hun plaats, want daar was weide voor hun schapen.
42 Ishi’s four sons Pelatiah, Neariah, Rephaiah and Uzziel led 500 other descendants of Simeon [and attacked the people who were living] in the hilly area of the Edom [region].
Ook gingen uit hen, te weten uit de kinderen van Simeon, vijfhonderd mannen, tot het gebergte van Seir; en Pelatja, en Nearja, en Refaja, en Izziel, de zonen van Isei, waren hun tot hoofden.
43 They killed the few descendants of Amalek who were still alive. From that time until now, the descendants of Simeon have lived in [the] Edom [region].
En zij sloegen de overigen der ontkomenen onder de Amalekieten, en zij woonden aldaar tot op dezen dag.
