I Paralipomenon 5

1 Filii quoque Ruben primogeniti Israel (Ipse quippe fuit primogenitus eius: sed cum violasset thorum patris sui, data sunt primogenita eius filiis Ioseph filii Israel, et non est ille reputatus in primogenitum.

As to sons of Reuben, first-born of Israel — for he [is] the first-born, and on account of his profaning the couch of his father hath his birthright been given to the sons of Joseph son of Israel, and [he is] not to be reckoned by genealogy for the birthright,

2 Porro Iudas, qui erat fortissimus inter fratres suos, de stirpe eius principes germinati sunt: primogenita autem reputata sunt Ioseph.)

for Judah hath been mighty over his brother, and for leader above him, and the birthright [is] to Joseph.

3 filii ergo Ruben primogeniti Israel: Enoch, et Phallu, Esron, et Carmi.

7 Fratres autem eius, et universa cognatio eius, quando numerabantur per familias suas, habuerunt principes Iehiel, et Zachariam.

And his brethren, by their families, in the genealogy of their generations, [are] heads: Jeiel, and Zechariah,

8 Porro Bala filius Azaz, filii Samma, filii Ioel, ipse habitavit in Aroer usque ad Nebo, et Beelmeon.

and Bela son of Azaz, son of Shema, son of Joel — he is dwelling in Aroer, even unto Nebo and Baal-Meon;

9 Contra orientalem quoque plagam habitavit usque ad introitum eremi, et flumen Euphraten. Multum quippe iumentorum numerum possidebant in Terra Galaad.

and at the east he dwelt even unto the entering in of the wilderness, even from the river Phrat, for their cattle were multiplied in the land of Gilead.

10 In diebus autem Saul praeliati sunt contra Agarenos, et interfecerunt illos, habitaveruntque pro eis in tabernaculis eorum, in omni plaga, quae respicit ad Orientem Galaad.

And in the days of Saul they have made war with the Hagarites, who fall by their hand, and they dwell in their tents over all the face of the east of Gilead.

These [are] sons of Abihail son of Huri, son of Jaroah, son of Gilead, son of Michael, son of Jeshishai, son of Jahdo, son of Buz;

15 Fratres quoque filii Abdiel, filii Guni, princeps domus in familiis suis.

Ahi son of Abdiel, son of Guni, [is] head of the house of their fathers;

16 Et habitaverunt in Galaad, et in Basan, et in viculis eius, et in cunctis suburbanis Saron, usque ad terminos.

and they dwell in Gilead in Bashan, and in her small towns, and in all suburbs of Sharon, upon their outskirts;

17 Omnes hi, numerati sunt in diebus Ioathan regis Iuda, et in diebus Ieroboam regis Israel.

all of them reckoned themselves by genealogy in the days of Jotham king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam king of Israel.

18 Filii Ruben, et Gad, et dimidiae tribus Manasse viri bellatores, scuta portantes, et gladios, et tendentes arcum, eruditique ad praelia quadragintaquattuor millia, et septingenti sexaginta procedentes ad pugnam.

Sons of Reuben, and the Gadite, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh, of sons of valour, men bearing shield and sword, and treading bow, and taught in battle, [are] forty and four thousand and seven hundred and sixty, going out to the host.

19 Dimicaverunt contra Agarenos: Ituraei vero, et Naphis, et Nodab

And they make war with the Hagarites, and Jetur, and Naphish, and Nodab,

20 praebuerunt eis auxilium. Traditique sunt in manus eorum Agareni, et universi, qui fuerant cum eis, quia Deum invocaverunt cum praeliarentur: et exaudivit eos, eo quod credidissent in eum.

and they are helped against them, and the Hagarites are given into their hand, and all who [are] with them, for they cried to God in battle, and He was entreated of them, because they trusted in Him.

21 Ceperuntque omnia quae possederant, camelorum quinquaginta millia, et ovium ducenta quinquaginta millia, et asinos duo millia, et animas hominum centum millia.

And they take captive their cattle, of their camels fifty thousand, and of sheep two hundred and fifty thousand, and of asses two thousand, and of human beings a hundred thousand;

22 Vulnerati autem multi corruerunt: fuit enim bellum Domini. Habitaveruntque pro eis usque ad transmigrationem.

for many have fallen pierced, for of God [is] the battle; and they dwell in their stead till the removal.

23 Filii quoque dimidiae tribus Manasse possederunt terram a finibus Basan usque Baal, Hermon, et Sanir, et montem Hermon, ingens quippe numerus erat.

And these [are] heads of the house of their fathers, even Epher, and Ishi, and Eliel, and Azriel, and Jeremiah, and Hodaviah, and Jahdiel, men mighty in valour, men of name, heads to the house of their fathers.

25 Reliquerunt autem Deum patrum suorum, et fornicati sunt post deos populorum terrae, quos abstulit Deus coram eis.

And they trespass against the God of their fathers, and go a-whoring after the gods of the peoples of the land whom God destroyed from their presence;

26 et suscitavit Deus Israel spiritum Phul regis Assyriorum, et spiritum Thelgathphalnasar regis Assur: et transtulit Ruben, et Gad, et dimidiam tribum Manasse, et adduxit eos in Lahela, et in Habor, et Ara, et fluvium Gozan, usque ad diem hanc.

and stir up doth the God of Israel the spirit of Pul king of Asshur, and the spirit of Tilgath-Pilneser king of Asshur, and he removeth them — even the Reubenite, and the Gadite, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh — and bringeth them in to Halah, and Habor, and Hara, and the river of Gozan unto this day.
