The Scriptures 1998

1 Chronicles 4:39-43 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

39. And they went to the entrance of Geḏor, as far as the east side of the valley, to look for pasture for their flocks,

40. and they found rich, good pasture, and the land was broad, undisturbed and safe, for some Ḥamites had dwelt there formerly.

41. And these written by name came in the days of Ḥizqiyahu sovereign of Yehuḏah, and smote their tents, and the homes that were found there, and put them under the ban, as it is to this day, and dwelt in their place, because there was pasture for their flocks there.

42. And some of them, five hundred men of the sons of Shim‛on, went to Mount Sĕ‛ir, having as their chiefs Pelatyah, and Ne‛aryah, and Rephayah, and Uzzi’ĕl, the sons of Yishi.

43. And they smote the rest of the Amalĕqites who had escaped, and dwelt there to this day.
