[6] Ehud's sons were the clan leaders in Geba who were exiled to Manahath: [7] Naaman, Ahijah, and Gera (who led them into exile and fathered Uzza and Ahihud). [8] After sending away his two wives, Hushim and Baara, Shaharaim fathered children in the country of Moab. [9] By his wife Hodesh he fathered these clan leaders: Jobab, Zibia, Mesha, Malcam, Jeuz, Sachia, and Mirmah. [11] By Hushim he fathered Abitub and Elpaal. [12] Elpaal's sons were Eber, Misham, Shemed (who built the cities and towns of Ono and Lod), [13] Beriah and Shema (who were clan leaders in Aijalon and drove away the people of the Philistine city Gath), [14] Ahio, Shashak, and Jeremoth. [15] Beriah's sons were Zebadiah, Arad, Eder, Michael, Ishpah, and Joha. [17] Elpaal also fathered Zebadiah, Meshullam, Hizki, Heber, Ishmerai, Izliah, and Jobab. [19] Shimei's sons were Jakim, Zichri, Zabdi, Elienai, Zillethai, Eliel, Adaiah, Beraiah, and Shimrath. [22] Shashak's sons were Ishpan, Eber, Eliel, Abdon, Zichri, Hanan, Hananiah, Elam, Anthothijah, Iphdeiah, and Penuel. [26] Jeroham's sons were Shamsherai, Shehariah, Athaliah, Jaareshiah, Elijah, and Zichri. [28] These men were leaders of their clans who lived in Jerusalem. [29] In Gibeon, Jeiel (the father of Gibeon) lived with his wife Maacah. [30] His sons were Abdon (the firstborn), then Zur, Kish, Baal, Nadab, [31] Gedor, Ahio, and Zecher. [32] Mikloth fathered Shimeah, and they also lived with their relatives in Jerusalem across from their other relatives. [33] Ner fathered Kish, the father of Saul, the first king in Israel. Saul's sons were Jonathan, Malchi-shua, Abinadab, and Eshbaal. [34] Jonathan's son Merib-baal fathered Micah. [35] The sons of Micah were Pithon, Melech, Tarea, and Ahaz. [36] Ahaz fathered Jehoaddah, who then fathered Alemeth, Azmaveth, and Zimri. Zimri's lineage descended five generations: Moza, [37] Binea, Raphah, Eleasah, and Azel. [38] Azel had six sons: Azrikam, Bocheru, Ishmael, Sheariah, Obadiah, and Hanan. [39] His brother, Eshek, fathered three sons in order: Ulam, Jeush, and Eliphelet. [40] Ulam's sons were heroic warriors and archers who had 150 sons and grandsons. All of these were of the tribe of Benjamin.
