[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.”
10 Ja Jabes huusi Israelin Jumalaa, sanoen: "Jospa sinä siunaisit minua ja laajentaisit minun alueeni; jospa sinun kätesi olisi minun kanssani ja sinä varjelisit pahasta, niin että minä pääsisin kipuja kärsimästä!" Ja Jumala antoi hänen pyyntönsä toteutua.

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.
28 Ja he asuivat Beersebassa, Mooladassa ja Hasar-Suualissa,
The descendants of Simeon lived in [these cities and towns]: Beersheba, Moladah, Hazar-Shual,

30 Betuelissa, Hormassa ja Siklagissa,

Beth-Marcaboth, Hazar-Susim, Beth-Biri, and Shaaraim. They lived in those places until David became king.
32 Ja heidän kylänsä olivat Eetam, Ain, Rimmon, Tooken ja Aasan-viisi kaupunkia;
They also lived in villages near those towns: Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Token, and Ashan.
33 siihen lisäksi kaikki heidän kylänsä, jotka olivat näiden kaupunkien ympärillä, aina Baaliin asti. Nämä olivat heidän asuinsijansa; ja heillä oli omat sukuluettelonsa.
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 Vielä: Mesobab, Jamlek, Joosa, Amasjan poika,
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.

36 Eljoenai, Jaakoba, Jesohaja, Asaja, Adiel, Jesimiel, Benaja
37 ja Siisa, Sifin poika, joka oli Allonin poika, joka Jedajan poika, joka Simrin poika, joka Semajan poika.
38 Nämä nimeltä mainitut olivat sukujensa ruhtinaita, ja heidän perhekuntansa olivat levinneet ja lisääntyneet.
39 Ja he kulkivat Gedoriin päin, aina laakson itäiseen osaan saakka, hakeakseen laidunta lampailleen.
They went outside of Gedor [town] on the east side of the valley to look for pastureland for their flocks of sheep.
40 Ja he löysivät lihavan ja hyvän laitumen, ja maa oli tilava joka suuntaan sekä rauhallinen ja levollinen, sillä ne, jotka olivat asuneet siellä ennen, olivat haamilaisia.
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.
41 Mutta nämä nimeltä luetellut tulivat Hiskian, Juudan kuninkaan, päivinä ja valtasivat heidän telttansa ja voittivat meunilaiset, jotka olivat siellä, ja vihkivät heidät tuhon omiksi, aina tähän päivään asti, ja asettuivat heidän sijaansa, sillä siellä oli laidunta heidän lampaillensa.
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.
42 Ja heistä, simeonilaisista, meni viisisataa miestä Seirin vuoristoon, ja heidän etunenässään olivat Pelatja, Nearja, Refaja ja Ussiel, Jisin pojat.
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].
43 Ja he surmasivat ne, jotka olivat jäljellä pelastuneista amalekilaisista, ja jäivät sinne asumaan aina tähän päivään asti.
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].
