< 1 Chronicles 5 >
1 The sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel (for he was the firstborn, but because he defiled his father’s couch, his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph the son of Israel; and the genealogy is not to be listed according to the birthright.
以色列的长子原是吕便;因他污秽了父亲的床,他长子的名分就归了约瑟。只是按家谱他不算长子。
2 For Judah prevailed above his brothers, and from him came the prince; but the birthright was Joseph’s)—

18 The sons of Reuben, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, of valiant men, men able to bear buckler and sword, able to shoot with bow, and skilful in war, were forty-four thousand and seven hundred and sixty that were able to go out to war.

他们得了 神的帮助,夏甲人和跟随夏甲的人都交在他们手中;因为他们在阵上呼求 神,倚赖 神, 神就应允他们。
21 They took away their livestock: of their camels fifty thousand, and of sheep two hundred and fifty thousand, and of donkeys two thousand, and of men one hundred thousand.
他们掳掠了夏甲人的牲畜,有骆驼五万,羊二十五万,驴二千;又有人十万。
22 For many fell slain, because the war was of God. They lived in their place until the captivity.
敌人被杀仆倒的甚多,因为这争战是出乎 神。他们就住在敌人的地上,直到被掳的时候。

故此,以色列的 神激动亚述王普勒和亚述王提革拉·毗列色的心,他们就把吕便人、迦得人、玛拿西半支派的人掳到哈腊、哈博、哈拉与歌散河边,直到今日还在那里。
