4 and Abihud, and Abishua, and Naaman, and Ahoah, 

5 and Gera, and Shephuphan, and Huram. 

6 And these [are] sons of Ehud—they are heads of fathers to the inhabitants of Geba, and they remove them to Manahath: 

7 even Naaman, and Ahiah, and Gera, who removed them and begot Uzza and Ahihud.

10 and Jeuz, and Shachiah, and Mirmah. These [are] his sons, heads of fathers. 

11 And of Hushim he begot Ahitub and Elpaal. 

12 And sons of Elpaal: Eber, and Misheam, and Shamer (he built Ono and Lod and its small towns), 

13 and Beriah and Shema (they [are] the heads of fathers to the inhabitants of Aijalon—they caused the inhabitants of Gath to flee),

28 These [are] heads of fathers, by their generations, [the] heads. These dwelt in Jerusalem.

29 And the father of Gibeon has dwelt in Gibeon, and the name of his wife [is] Maachah; 

30 and his son, the firstborn, [is] Abdon, and Zur, and Kish, and Ba‘al, and Nadab, 

31 and Gedor, and Ahio, and Zacher; 

32 and Mikloth begot Shimeah. And they also dwelt opposite their brothers—with their brothers in Jerusalem.

33 And Ner begot Kish, and Kish begot Saul, and Saul begot Jonathan, and Malchi-Shua, and Abinadab, and Esh-Ba‘al. 

34 And a son of Jonathan [is] Merib-Ba‘al, and Merib-Ba‘al begot Micah; 

35 and sons of Micah: Pithon, and Melech, and Tarea, and Ahaz: 

36 and Ahaz begot Jehoadah, and Jehoadah begot Alemeth, and Azmaveth, and Zimri; and Zimri begot Moza, 

37 and Moza begot Binea, Raphah his son, Eleasah his son, Azel his son. 

38 And to Azel [are] six sons, and these [are] their names: Azrikam, Bocheru, and Ishmael, and Sheariah, and Obadiah, and Hanan. All these [are] sons of Azel. 

39 And sons of his brother Eshek: Ulam his firstborn, Jehush the second, and Eliphelet the third. 

40 And the sons of Ulam are men mighty in valor, treading bow, and multiplying sons and son’s sons—one hundred and fifty. All these [are] of the sons of Benjamin.
