< 1 Chronicles 5 >

1 The sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel—now Reuben was Israel's firstborn, but his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph son of Israel because Reuben had defiled his father's couch. So he is not recorded as being the oldest son.

10 In the days of Saul, the tribe of Reuben attacked the Hagrites and defeated them. They lived in the Hagrites' tents throughout all the land east of Gilead.

18 The Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh had 44,760 soldiers trained for war, who carried shield and sword, and who drew the bow.

19 They attacked the Hagrites, Jetur, Naphish, and Nodab.
Nao makĩhithũkĩra Ahagari, na Ajeturi, na Anafishi, na Anodabu.
20 They received divine help against them. In this way, the Hagrites and all who were with them were defeated. This was because the Israelites cried out to God in the battle, and he responded to them, because they put their trust in him.
Nĩmateithirio kũmahũũra, nake Ngai akĩneana Ahagari moko-inĩ mao, marĩ hamwe na arĩa othe maamateithagia, tondũ nĩmamũkaĩire marĩ mbaara-inĩ. Nĩamacookeirie mahooya mao, nĩ ũndũ nĩmamwĩhokete.

25 But they were unfaithful to their ancestors' God. Instead, they worshiped the gods of the peoples of the land, whom God had destroyed before them.
No matiarĩ ehokeku harĩ Ngai wa maithe mao, tondũ nĩmeheanĩte kũrĩ ngai cia andũ a bũrũri ũcio, arĩa Ngai aaniinĩte mehere mbere yao.
26 The God of Israel stirred up Pul king of Assyria (also called Tiglath-Pileser, king of Assyria). He took into exile the Reubenites, Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh. He brought them to Halah, Habor, Hara, and to the river of Gozan, where they remain to this day.
