Dual Panel1Now the sons<1121> of Reuben<7205> the firstborn<1060> of Israel<3478> (for he was the firstborn<1060>, but because he defiled<2490> his father's<1> bed<3326>, his birthright<1062> was given<5414> to the sons<1121> of Joseph<3130> the son<1121> of Israel<3478>; so that he is not enrolled<3187> in the genealogy<3187> according to the birthright<1062>.
2Though<3588> Judah<3063> prevailed<1396> over his brothers<251>, and from him came the leader<5057>, yet the birthright<1062> belonged to Joseph<3130>),
3the sons<1121> of Reuben<7205> the firstborn<1060> of Israel<3478> were Hanoch<2585> and Pallu<6396>, Hezron<2696> and Carmi<3756>.
4The sons<1121> of Joel<3100> were Shemaiah<8098> his son<1121>, Gog<1463> his son<1121>, Shimei<8096> his son<1121>,
5Micah<4318> his son<1121>, Reaiah<7211> his son<1121>, Baal<1168> his son<1121>,
6Beerah<880> his son<1121>, whom<834> Tilgath-pilneser<8407> king<4428> of Assyria<804> carried<1540> away<1540> into exile<1540>; he was leader<5387> of the Reubenites<7206>.
7His kinsmen<251> by their families<4940>, in the genealogy<3187> of their generations<8435>, were Jeiel<3262> the chief<7218>, then Zechariah<2148>
8and Bela<1106> the son<1121> of Azaz<5811>, the son<1121> of Shema<8087>, the son<1121> of Joel<3100>, who<1931> lived<3427> in Aroer<6177>, even to Nebo<5015> and Baal-meon<1186>.
9To the east<4217> he settled<3427> as far<5704> as the entrance<935> of the wilderness<4057> from the river<5104> Euphrates<6578>, because<3588> their cattle<4735> had increased<7235> in the land<776> of Gilead<1568>.
10In the days<3117> of Saul<7586> they made<6213> war<4421> with the Hagrites<1905>, who fell<5307> by their hand<3027>, so that they occupied<3427> their tents<168> throughout<5921> all<3605> the land<6440> east<4217> of Gilead<1568>.
11Now the sons<1121> of Gad<1410> lived<3427> opposite<5048> them in the land<776> of Bashan<1316> as far<5704> as Salecah<5548>.
12Joel<3100> was the chief<7218> and Shapham<8223> the second<4932>, then Janai<3285> and Shaphat<8202> in Bashan<1316>.
13Their kinsmen<251> of their fathers'<1> households<1004> were Michael<4317>, Meshullam<4918>, Sheba<7652>, Jorai<3140>, Jacan<3275>, Zia<2127> and Eber<5677>, seven<7651>.
14These<428> were the sons<1121> of Abihail<32>, the son<1121> of Huri<2359>, the son<1121> of Jaroah<3386>, the son<1121> of Gilead<1568>, the son<1121> of Michael<4317>, the son<1121> of Jeshishai<3454>, the son<1121> of Jahdo<3163>, the son<1121> of Buz<938>;
15Ahi<277> the son<1121> of Abdiel<5661>, the son<1121> of Guni<1476>, was head<7218> of their fathers'<1> households<1004>.
16They lived<3427> in Gilead<1568>, in Bashan<1316> and in its towns<1323>, and in all<3605> the pasture<4054> lands<4054> of Sharon<8289>, as far<5921> as their borders<8444>.
17All<3605> of these were enrolled<3187> in the genealogies<3187> in the days<3117> of Jotham<3147> king<4428> of Judah<3063> and in the days<3117> of Jeroboam<3379> king<4428> of Israel<3478>.
18The sons<1121> of Reuben<7205> and the Gadites<1425> and the half-tribe<2677><7626> of Manasseh<4519>, consisting of valiant<2428> men<1121>, men<376> who bore<5375> shield<4043> and sword<2719> and shot<1869> with bow<7198> and were skillful<3925> in battle<4421>, were 44,760 <705><702><505><7651><3967><8346>, who went<3318> to war<6635>.
19They made<6213> war<4421> against<5973> the Hagrites<1905>, Jetur<3195>, Naphish<5305> and Nodab<5114>.
20They were helped<5826> against<5921> them, and the Hagrites<1905> and all<3605> who were with them were given<5414> into their hand<3027>; for they cried<2199> out to God<430> in the battle<4421>, and He answered<6279> their prayers<6279> because<3588> they trusted<982> in Him.
21They took<7617> away<7617> their cattle<4735>: their 50,000 <2572><505> camels<1581>, 250,000 <3967><2572><505> sheep<6629>, 2,000 <505> donkeys<2543>; and 100,000 <3967><505> men<5315><120>.
22For many<7227> fell<5307> slain<2491>, because<3588> the war<4421> was of God<430>. And they settled<3427> in their place<8478> until<5704> the exile<1473>.
23Now the sons<1121> of the half-tribe<2677><7626> of Manasseh<4519> lived<3427> in the land<776>; from Bashan<1316> to Baal-hermon<1179> and Senir<8149> and Mount<2022> Hermon<2768> they were numerous<7235>.
24These<428> were the heads<7218> of their fathers'<1> households<1004>, even Epher<6081>, Ishi<3469>, Eliel<447>, Azriel<5837>, Jeremiah<3414>, Hodaviah<1938> and Jahdiel<3164>, mighty<1368> men<376> of valor<2428>, famous<8034> men<376>, heads<7218> of their fathers'<1> households<1004>.
25But they acted<4603> treacherously<4603> against the God<430> of their fathers<1> and played<2181> the harlot<2181> after<310> the gods<430> of the peoples<5971> of the land<776>, whom<834> God<430> had destroyed<8045> before<4480><6440> them.
26So the God<430> of Israel<3478> stirred<5782> up the spirit<7307> of Pul<6322>, king<4428> of Assyria<804>, even the spirit<7307> of Tilgath-pilneser<8407> king<4428> of Assyria<804>, and he carried<1540> them away<1540> into exile<1540>, namely the Reubenites<7206>, the Gadites<1425> and the half-tribe<2677><7626> of Manasseh<4519>, and brought<935> them to Halah<2477>, Habor<2249>, Hara<2024> and to the river<5104> of Gozan<1470>, to this<2088> day<3117>.
