And these also dwelt with their brethren in Jerusalem, over against them.³³And Ner begat Kish, and Kish begat Saul, and Saul begat Jonathan, and Malchishua, and Abinadab, and Eshbaal.³⁴And the son of Jonathan was Meribbaal; and Meribbaal begat Micah.³⁵And the sons of Micah were, Pithon, and Melech, and Tarea, and Ahaz.³⁶And Ahaz begat Jehoadah; and Jehoadah begat Alemeth, and Azmaveth, and Zimri; and Zimri begat Moza,³⁷And Moza begat Binea: Rapha was his son, Eleasah his son, Azel his son:³⁸And Azel had six sons, whose names are these, Azrikam, Bocheru, and Ishmael, and Sheariah, and Obadiah, and Hanan. All these were the sons of Azel.³⁹And the sons of Eshek his brother were, Ulam his firstborn, Jehush the second, and Eliphelet the third.⁴⁰And the sons of Ulam were mighty men of valour, archers, and had many sons, and sons’ sons, an hundred and fifty. All these are of the sons of Benjamin.
