12 And the sons of Elphaal were Heber, and Misaam, and Samad: who built One, and Led, and its daughters.

24 And Hanania, and Elam, and Anathothia.
25 And Jephdaia, and Phanuel the sons of Sesac.
26 And Samsari, and Sohoria and Otholia,
27 And Jersia, and Elia, and Zechri, the sons of Jeroham.
28 These were the chief fathers, and heads of their families who dwelt in Jerusalem.
29 And at Gabaon dwelt Abigabaon, and the name of his wife was Maacha:
30 And his firstborn son Abdon, and Sur, and Cia, and Baal, and Nadab,
31 And Gedor, and Ahio, and Zacher, and Macelloth:
32 And Macelloth beget Samaa: and they dwelt over against their brethren in Jerusalem with their brethren.
33 And Ner beget Cia, and Cia beget Saul. And Saul begot Jonathan and Melchisua, and Abinadab, and Esbaal.
34 And the son of Jonathan was Meribbaal: and Meribbaal begot Micha.
35 And the sons of Micha were Phithon, and Melech, and Tharaa, and Ahaz.
36 And Ahaz beget Joada: and Joada beget Alamath, and Azmoth, and Zamri: and Zamri beget Mesa,
37 And Mesa beget Banaa, whose son was Rapha, of whom was born Elasa, who beget Asel.
38 And Asel had six sons whose names were Ezricam, Bochru, Ismahel, Saria, Obdia, and Hanan. All these were the sons of Asel.
39 And the sons of Esec, his brother, were Ulam the firstborn, and Jehus the second, and Eliphelet the third.
40 And the sons of Ulam were most valiant men, and archers of great strength: and they had many sons and grandsons, even to a hundred and fifty. All these were children of Benjamin.
