Meshobab, Jamlech, and Joshah the son of Amaziah;
35
Joel, and Jehu the son of Joshibiah, the son of Seraiah, the son of Asiel;

these mentioned by name were leaders in their families, and their father's house increased greatly.
39
So they went to the entrance of Gedor, as far as the east side of the valley, to seek pasture for their flocks.
40
And they found rich, good pasture, and the land was broad, quiet, and peaceful; for some Hamites formerly lived there.
41
These recorded by name came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah; and they attacked their tents and the Meunites who were found there, and utterly destroyed them, as it is to this day. So they dwelt in their place, because there was pasture for their flocks there.
42
Now some of them, five hundred men of the sons of Simeon, went to Mount Seir, having as their captains Pelatiah, Neariah, Rephaiah, and Uzziel, the sons of Ishi.
43
And they defeated the rest of the Amalekites who had escaped. They have dwelt there to this day.
