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.”
Jabesi sì ní ọlá ju àwọn ẹ̀gbọ́n rẹ̀ ọkùnrin lọ. Ìyá rẹ̀ sì sọ ọ́ ní Jabesi wí pé, “Mo bí i nínú ìpọ́njú.”
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.
Jabesi sì kígbe sókè sí Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí pé, “Háà, Ìwọ yóò bùkún fún mi, ìwọ yóò sì mú agbègbè mi tóbi! Jẹ́ kí ọwọ́ rẹ kí ó wà pẹ̀lú mi kí o sì pa mi mọ́ kúrò nínú ibi; kí èmi kí ó le ní ìdáǹdè kúrò nínú ìrora.” Ọlọ́run sì gbọ́ ohùn ẹ̀bẹ̀ rẹ̀.

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).

Jered was the father of (OR, founded the town of) Gedor, Heber was the father of (OR, founded the town of) Soco, and Jekuthiel was the father of (OR, founded the town of) Zanoah.

Jokimu, ọkùnrin Koseba, àti Joaṣi àti Sarafi, olórí ní Moabu àti Jaṣubi Lehemu. (Àkọsílẹ̀ yìí sì wà láti ìgbà àtijọ́.)
23 They made pottery for the king; some of them lived in Netaim [town] and some of them lived in Gederah [town].

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.
Ṣimei sì ní ọmọkùnrin mẹ́rìndínlógún àti ọmọbìnrin mẹ́fà, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ẹ̀gbọ́n rẹ̀ ọkùnrin kò ní ọmọ púpọ̀; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ìdílé wọn kò sì pọ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn ènìyàn Juda.
28 The descendants of Simeon lived in [these cities and towns]: Beersheba, Moladah, Hazar-Shual,

32 They also lived in villages near those towns: Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Token, and Ashan.

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.

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.
Meṣobabu àti Jamleki, Josa ọmọ Amasiah,

39 They went outside of Gedor [town] on the east side of the valley to look for pastureland for their flocks of sheep.
wọ́n sì lọ sí ojú ọ̀nà Gedori. Lọ títí dé ìlà-oòrùn àfonífojì láti wá koríko fún àwọn agbo ẹran wọn.
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.
Wọ́n sì rí koríko tútù tí ó dára ilẹ̀ náà gbòòrò ó sì ní àlàáfíà ó sì gbé jẹ́. Àwọn ọmọ Hamu ni ó ti ń gbé ibẹ̀ tẹ́lẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀.
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.
Àwọn ọkùnrin tí a kọ orúkọ rẹ̀ sókè, dé ní ọjọ́ Hesekiah ọba Juda. Wọ́n sì kọlu àwọn ará Hamu ní àgọ́ wọn àti pẹ̀lú àwọn ará Mehuni tí a rí níbẹ̀ tí ó sì pa wọ́n run pátápátá títí di òní yìí. Wọ́n sì ń gbé ní ipò wọn, nítorí pé koríko ń bẹ níbẹ̀ fún agbo ẹran wọn.
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].
Ẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbẹ̀ta nínú àwọn ará Simeoni, lábẹ́ ìdarí pẹ̀lú Pelatiah, Neariah, Refaiah àti Usieli, àwọn ọmọ Iṣi, gbógun sí àwọn òkè ìlú ti Seiri.
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].
Wọ́n sì pa àwọn ará Amaleki tí ó kù, àwọn tí ó ti sálà, wọ́n sì ti ń gbé ibẹ̀ títí di òní yìí.
