1 Chronicles 4:21-31

21 The sons of Shelah, the son of Yehudah: `Er the father of Lekha, and La`adah the father of Mareshah, and the families of the house of those who worked fine linen, of the house of Ashbea;
22 and Yokim, and the men of Kozeva, and Yo'ash, and Saraf, who had dominion in Mo'av, and Yashuvi-Lechem. The records are ancient.
23 These were the potters, and the inhabitants of Netaim and Gederah: there they lived with the king for his work.
24 The sons of Shim`on: Nemu'el, and Yamin, Yariv, Zerach, Sha'ul;
25 Shallum his son, Mivsam his son, Mishma his son.
26 The sons of Mishma: Hammuel his son, Zakkur his son, Shim`i his son.
27 Shim`i had sixteen sons and six daughters; but his brothers didn't have many children, neither did all their family multiply like the children of Yehudah.
28 They lived at Be'er-Sheva, and Moladah, and Hatzar-Shu`al,
29 and at Bilhah, and at `Etzem, and at Tolad,
30 and at Betu'el, and at Hormah, and at Tziklag,
31 and at Beit-Markavot, and Hatzar-Susim, and at Beit-Bir'i, and at Sha`arayim. These were their cities to the reign of David.
