Descendants of Gad (1CH 5:11-22)

[5:11] The sons of Gad lived over against them in the land of Bashan as far as Salecah:

[5:12] Joel the chief, Shapham the second, Janai, and Shaphat in Bashan.

[5:13] And their kinsmen according to their fathers’ houses: Michael, Meshullam, Sheba, Jorai, Jacan, Zia and Eber, seven.

[5:14] These were the sons of Abihail the son of Huri, son of Jaroah, son of Gilead, son of Michael, son of Jeshishai, son of Jahdo, son of Buz.

[5:15] Ahi the son of Abdiel, son of Guni, was chief in their fathers’ houses,

[5:16] and they lived in Gilead, in Bashan and in its towns, and in all the pasturelands of Sharon to their limits.

[5:17] All of these were recorded in genealogies in the days of Jotham king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam king of Israel.

[5:18] The Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh had valiant men who carried shield and sword, and drew the bow, expert in war, 44,760, able to go to war.

[5:19] They waged war against the Hagrites, Jetur, Naphish, and Nodab.

[5:20] And when they prevailed over them, the Hagrites and all who were with them were given into their hands, for they cried out to God in the battle, and he granted their urgent plea because they trusted in him.

[5:21] They carried off their livestock: 50,000 of their camels, 250,000 sheep, 2,000 donkeys, and 100,000 men alive.

[5:22] For many fell, because the war was of God. And they lived in their place until the exile.
