Now the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel, (for he was the firstborn; but for as much as he defiled his father’s bed, his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph the son of Israel: and the genealogy is not to be reckoned after the birthright.
2 He naʻe mālohi hake ʻa Siuta ki hono ngaahi tokoua, pea naʻe meiate ia ʻae ʻeiki pule, ka ko e ʻinasi ʻoe ʻuluaki fānau naʻe ʻia Sosefa ia: )
For Judah prevailed above his brothers, and of him came the chief ruler; but the birthright was Joseph’s: )

Beerah his son, whom Tilgathpilneser king of Assyria carried away captive: he was prince of the Reubenites.
7 Pea ko e tuʻukimuʻa eni ʻi hono ngaahi tokoua ʻoʻona ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga, ʻi heʻene lau hake ʻae hohoko ʻo honau ngaahi toʻutangata, ko Sehieli, mo Sakalia,

And Bela the son of Azaz, the son of Shema, the son of Joel, who dwelled in Aroer, even to Nebo and Baalmeon:

And they were helped against them, and the Hagarites were delivered into their hand, and all that were with them: for they cried to God in the battle, and he was entreated of them; because they put their trust in him.
21 Pea naʻa nau ʻave ʻa ʻenau fanga manu; ko e fanga kāmeli ʻe nima mano, mo e fanga sipi ʻe ua kilu mo e nima mano, mo e fanga ʻasi ʻe ua afe, pea mo e kakai tangata ʻe tokotaha kilu,
And they took away their cattle; of their camels fifty thousand, and of sheep two hundred and fifty thousand, and of asses two thousand, and of men an hundred thousand.

And these were the heads of the house of their fathers, even Epher, and Ishi, and Eliel, and Azriel, and Jeremiah, and Hodaviah, and Jahdiel, mighty men of valor, famous men, and heads of the house of their fathers.
