1 Chronicles 5

11 Ref The sons of Gad lived over against them, in the land of Bashan to Salecah:

12 Joel the chief, and Shapham the second, and Janai, and Shaphat in Bashan.

13 Their brothers of their fathers' houses: Michael, and Meshullam, and Sheba, and Jorai, and Jacan, and Zia, and Eber, seven.

14 These were the sons of Abihail, the son of Huri, the son of Jaroah, the son of Gilead, the son of Michael, the son of Jeshishai, the son of Jahdo, the son of Buz;

15 Ahi the son of Abdiel, the son of Guni, chief of their fathers' houses.

16 Ref They lived in Gilead in Bashan, and in its towns, and in all the suburbs of Sharon, as far as their borders.

17 Ref All these were reckoned by genealogies in the days of Jotham king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam king of Israel.

18 Ref The sons of Reuben, and the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, of valiant men, men able to bear buckler and sword, and to shoot with bow, and skillful in war, were forty-four thousand seven hundred and sixty, that were able to go forth to war.

19 Ref They made war with the Hagrites, with Jetur, and Naphish, and Nodab.

20 Ref They were helped against them, and the Hagrites were delivered into their hand, and all who were with them; for they cried to God in the battle, and he was entreated of them, because they put their trust in him.

21 Ref They took away their cattle; of their camels fifty thousand, and of sheep two hundred fifty thousand, and of donkeys two thousand, and of men one hundred thousand.

22 Ref For there fell many slain, because the war was of God. They lived in their place until the captivity.
