³The sons of Judah: Er, Onan, and Shelah. These three were born to him from the daughter of Shua, the Canaanite. But Er, the firstborn of Judah, was evil in the sight of the Lord, and so he killed him

⁴Now Tamar, his daughter-in-law, bore to him Perez and Zerah. Therefore, all the sons of Judah were five

²⁰Now Hur conceived Uri. And Uri conceived Bezalel

²¹And afterwards, Hezron entered to the daughter of Machir, father of Gilead. And he took her when he was sixty years old. And she bore to him Segub

²²And then Segub conceived Jair, and he possessed twenty-three cities in the land of Gilead

²³And he seized Geshur and Aram, towns of Jair, and Kenath and its villages, sixty cities. All these were sons of Machir, father of Gilead

²⁴Then, when Hezron had died, Caleb entered to Ephratha. Also, Hezron had as wife Abia, who bore to him Ashhur, the father of Tekoa

²⁵Now sons were born to Jerahmeel, the firstborn of Hezron: Ram, his firstborn, and Bunah, and Oren, and Ozem, and Ahijah

²⁶Jerahmeel also married another wife, named Atarah, who was the mother of Onam

²⁷Then too, the sons of Ram, the firstborn of Jerahmeel, were Maaz, Jamin, and Eker

²⁸And Onam had sons: Shammai and Jada. And the sons of Shammai: Nadab and Abishur

²⁹Truly, the name of the wife of Abishur was Abihail, who bore to him Ahban and Molid

³⁰Now the sons of Nadab were Seled and Appaim. And Seled died without children

³²But the sons of Jada, the brother of Shammai, were Jether and Jonathan. Then Jether also died without children

³³And Jonathan conceived Peleth and Zaza. These were the sons of Jerahmeel

³⁴Now Sheshan did not have sons, but only daughters, and an Egyptian servant named Jarha

⁴²And the sons of Caleb, the brother of Jerahmeel, were Mesha, his firstborn, who was the father of Ziph, and the sons of Mesha, the father of Hebron

⁴³Now the sons of Hebron were Korah, and Tapuah, and Rekem, and Shema

⁴⁴Then Shema conceived Raham, the father of Jorkeam. And Rekem conceived Shammai
