Tie dzīvoja Gebā, līdz viņus aizveda trimdā uz Mānahatu. 7 Naamāns, Ahija un Gēra, viņš tos vadīja ceļā. Viņš bija tēvs Uzam un Ahīhudam. 8 Šaharaimam Moāba zemē pēc tam, kad viņš bija aizraidījis savas sievas Hūšīmu un Baāru, dzima pēcnācēji. 9 Viņa sieva Hodeša dzemdēja Jobābu, Cibju, Mēšu, Malkomu, 10 Jeūcu, Sāhaju un Mirmu, šie ir viņa dēli, tēvu namu galvenie. 11 Arī Hušīma viņam dzemdēja Abītūvu un Elpaalu. 12 Elpaala dēli: Ēbers, Mišāms, Šemeds, kurš uzcēla Ono, Lodu un to ciemus. 13 Berīa un Šema bija tēvu namu galvenie, Ajalonas iedzīvotāji, kas padzina Gatas iedzīvotājus. 14 Ahjo, Šāšaks, Jeremots, 15 Zebadja, Arāds, Ēders, 16 Mihaēls, Jišpa un Joha ir Berīas dēli. 17 Un Zebadja, Mešullāms, Hizkija, Hebers, 18 Jišmerajs, Jizlia un Jobābs ir Elpaala dēli. 19 Jākīms, Zihrī, Zabdī, 20 Elīēnajs, Cilletajs, Elīēls, 21 Adāja, Brāja un Šimrāts ir Šimī dēli. 22 Jišpāns, Ēbers, Elīēls, 23 Abdons, Zihrī, Hānāns, 24 Hananja, Ēlāms, Anatotija, 25 Jifedja un Penuēls ir Šāšaka dēli. 26 Šamšerajs, Šeharja, Atalja, 27 Jaarešja, Elija un Zihrī ir Jerohāma dēli. 28 Tie savā paaudzē bija tēvu namu galvenie un vadoņi un dzīvoja Jeruzālemē.
29 Gibeonā dzīvoja Gibeona tēvs, viņa sievas vārds bija Maaha. 30 Viņa pirmdzimtais dēls bija Abdons, pēc tam Cūrs, Kīšs, Baals, Nādābs, 31 Gdora, Ahjo, Zehers 32 un Miklots, Šimāma tēvs. Arī viņi dzīvoja Jeruzālemē – iepretī saviem brāļiem.
33 Nērs bija Kīša tēvs, Kīšs Saula tēvs, Sauls Jonatāna, Malkī-Šūas, Abīnādāva un Ešbaala tēvs. 34 Jonatāna dēls bija Merīb-Baals, Merīb-Baals bija Mihas tēvs,
35 Mihas dēli: Pītons, Melehs, Tarēa un Āhāzs. 36 Āhāzs bija Jehoadas tēvs, Jehoada bija Ālemeta, Azmāveta un Zimrī tēvs, Zimrī bija Mocas tēvs, 37 Moca bija Binas tēvs, viņa dēls Rāfa, viņa dēls Elāsa, viņa dēls Ācēls. 38 Ācēlam bija seši dēli, un šie ir viņu vārdi: Azrīkāms, Bohrū, Ismaēls, Šearja, Obadja un Hānāns. Šie visi bija Ācēla dēli. 39 Viņa brāļa Ēšeka dēli ir pirmdzimtais Ūlāms, otrais Jeūšs, trešais Elīfelets.
40 Ūlāma dēli bija vareni spēkavīri, loka šāvēji, un tiem bija daudz dēlu un dēlu dēlu – simts piecdesmit! Visi tie bija Benjāmina dēli.
