Pero Jabes fue más ilustre que sus hermanos. Su madre lo llamó Jabes y dijo: ¡Ciertamente lo di a luz con dolor!
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).

Simei tuvo 16 hijos y seis hijas, pero sus hermanos no tuvieron muchos hijos, ni se multiplicaron en su familia como los hijos de Judá.
28 The descendants of Simeon lived in [these cities and towns]: Beersheba, Moladah, Hazar-Shual,

39 They went outside of Gedor [town] on the east side of the valley to look for pastureland for their flocks of sheep.
Llegaron hasta la entrada de Gedor, hasta el oriente del valle, en busca de pastos para sus ganados.
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.
Hallaron pastos buenos y abundantes. La tierra era muy espaciosa, tranquila y apacible, porque los de Cam la habitaron anteriormente.
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.
Éstos que fueron inscritos por sus nombres vinieron en días de Ezequías, rey de Judá, y destruyeron las tiendas y cabañas que hallaron allí. Las destruyeron hasta hoy, y vivieron allí en lugar de ellos, por cuanto allí había pastos para sus ganados.
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].
Asimismo 500 hombres de los hijos de Simeón fueron a la montaña de Seír y llevaron como jefes a Pelatías, Nearías, Refaías y Uziel, hijos de Isi.
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].
Destruyeron a los que quedaron de Amalec y vivieron allí hasta hoy.
