1 Sons of Judah: Pharez, Hezron, and Carmi, and Hur, and Shobal.

2 And Reaiah son of Shobal begat Jahath, and Jahath begat Ahumai and Lahad; these are families of the Zorathite.

3 And these are of the father of Etam: Jezreel, and Ishma, and Idbash; and the name of their sister is Hazzelelponi,

7 And sons of Helah: Zereth, and Zohar, and Ethnan.

8 And Coz begat Anub, and Zobebah, and the families of Aharhel son of Harum.

9 And Jabez is honoured above his brethren, and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, `Because I have brought forth with grief.'
