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.”
Und Jabez ward geehrter als seine Brüder; und seine Mutter gab ihm den Namen Jabez, denn sie sprach: Ich habe ihn mit Schmerzen geboren.
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.

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.

26 Mishma’s son was Hammuel. Hammuel’s son was Zaccur. Zaccur’s son was Shimei.
Und die Söhne Mischmas: sein Sohn Chamuel, dessen Sohn Sakkur, dessen Sohn Simei.
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.
Und Simei hatte sechzehn Söhne und sechs Töchter, und seine Brüder hatten nicht viele Söhne, und keines ihrer Geschlechter mehrte sich wie die Söhne Judas.
28 The descendants of Simeon lived in [these cities and towns]: Beersheba, Moladah, Hazar-Shual,
Und sie wohnten in Beerseba, Molada und Chazar-Schual,
29 Bilhah, Ezem, Tolad,
in Bilha, Ezem und Tolad,
30 Bethuel, Hormah, Ziklag,
in Betuel, Chorma und Ziklag,
31 Beth-Marcaboth, Hazar-Susim, Beth-Biri, and Shaaraim. They lived in those places until David became king.
in Beth-Markabot, Chazar-Susim, Beth-Biri und Schaaraim. Das waren ihre Städte bis zur Regierung Davids und ihre Dörfer:
32 They also lived in villages near those towns: Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Token, and Ashan.
Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Tochen und Aschan, fünf Städte
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.
und alle ihre Dörfer, welche rings um diese Städte waren bis nach Baal. Das waren ihre Wohnplätze, und sie hatten ihre Geschlechtsregister.
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.
Und Meschobab und Jamlek und Joscha, der Sohn Amazjas,
und Joel und Jehu, der Sohn Joschibjas, des Sohnes Serajas, des Sohnes Asiels,
und Eljoenai und Jaakoba und Jeschochaja und Asaja und Adiel und Jeschimiel und Benaja,
und Sisa, der Sohn Schiphis, des Sohnes Allons, des Sohnes Jedajas, des Sohnes Schimris, des Sohnes Schemajas:
diese mit Namen Angeführten waren Fürsten in ihren Geschlechtern, und ihre Stammhäuser breiteten sich stark aus.
39 They went outside of Gedor [town] on the east side of the valley to look for pastureland for their flocks of sheep.
Und sie zogen bis nach Gedor hin, bis an die Morgenseite des Tales, um Weide für ihre Schafe zu suchen.
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.
Und sie fanden fette und gute Weide und ein Land, weit nach beiden Seiten, ruhig und still; denn die vorzeiten daselbst wohnten, waren von Ham.
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.
Und so kamen die mit Namen Aufgeschriebenen zur Zeit Hiskias, des Königs von Juda, und vernichteten deren Zelte und die Meuniter, welche daselbst gefunden wurden, und vollstreckten den Bann an ihnen bis auf diesen Tag und wohnten an ihrer Statt.
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].
Und ein Teil von ihnen, den Kindern Simeons, 500 Mann, zogen nach dem Gebirge Seir, an ihrer Spitze Pelatja und Nearja und Rephaja und Ussiel, die Söhne Jischis.
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].
Und sie schlugen den Rest der Entronnenen von Amalek und wohnten daselbst bis auf diesen Tag.
