1 Chronicles 4:20-30

20 And the sons of Shimon: Amnon, Rinnah, Benhanan, and Tilon. And the sons of Ishi: Zoheth and Benzoheth.
21 The sons of Shelah, the son of Judah: Er, the father of Lecah, and Laadah, the father of Mareshah, and the families of the house of those that wrought fine linen, of the house of Ashbea,
22 and Jokim and the men of Chozeba, and Joash and Saraph, who had the dominion in Moab, and Jashubilehem. And these are ancient words.
23 These were the potters and those that dwelt among plants and hedges, who dwelt there with the king for his work.
24 The sons of Simeon: Nemuel, Jamin, Jarib, Zerah, Saul;
25 also Shallum, his son, Mibsam, his son, and Mishma, his son.
26 The sons of Mishma: Hamuel, his son, Zacchur, his son, Shimei his son.
27 And Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters, but his brethren did not have many children, neither did all their family multiply, like the sons of Judah.
28 And they dwelt at Beersheba and Moladah and Hazarshual
29 and at Bilhah and at Ezem and at Tolad
30 and at Bethuel and at Hormah and at Ziklag
