1CH 4:1-20
1The descendants of Judah: Perez, Hezron, Carmi, Hur, and Shobal. 2Reaiah son of Shobal was the father of Jahath, and Jahath was the father of Ahumai and Lahad. These were the clans of the Zorathites. 3These were the sons of Etam: Jezreel, Ishma, and Idbash. And their sister was named Hazzelelponi. 4Penuel was the father of Gedor, and Ezer was the father of Hushah. These were the descendants of Hur, the firstborn of Ephrathah and the father of Bethlehem. 5Ashhur the father of Tekoa had two wives, Helah and Naarah. 6Naarah bore to him Ahuzzam, Hepher, Temeni, and Haahashtari. These were the descendants of Naarah. 7The sons of Helah were Zereth, Zohar, Ethnan, 8and Koz, who was the father of Anub and Zobebah and of the clans of Aharhel son of Harum. 9Now Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez, saying, “Because I bore him in pain.” 10And Jabez called out to the God of Israel, “If only You would bless me and enlarge my territory! May Your hand be with me and keep me from harm, so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted the request of Jabez. 11Chelub the brother of Shuhah was the father of Mehir, who was the father of Eshton. 12Eshton was the father of Beth-rapha, of Paseah, and of Tehinnah the father of Ir-nahash. These were the men of Recah. 13The sons of Kenaz: Othniel and Seraiah. The sons of Othniel: Hathath and Meonothai. 14Meonothai was the father of Ophrah, and Seraiah was the father of Joab, the father of those living in Ge-harashim, which was given this name because its people were craftsmen. 15The sons of Caleb son of Jephunneh: Iru, Elah, and Naam. The son of Elah: Kenaz. 16The sons of Jehallelel: Ziph, Ziphah, Tiria, and Asarel. 17The sons of Ezrah: Jether, Mered, Epher, and Jalon. And Mered’s wife Bithiah gave birth to Miriam, Shammai, and Ishbah the father of Eshtemoa. 18These were the children of Pharaoh’s daughter Bithiah. Mered also took a Judean wife, who gave birth to Jered the father of Gedor, Heber the father of Soco, and Jekuthiel the father of Zanoah. 19The sons of Hodiah’s wife, the sister of Naham, were the fathers of Keilah the Garmite and of Eshtemoa the Maacathite. 20The sons of Shimon: Amnon, Rinnah, Ben-hanan, and Tilon.

1Vindicate me, O LORD! For I have walked with integrity; I have trusted in the LORD without wavering. 2Test me, O LORD, and try me; examine my heart and mind. 3For Your loving devotion is before my eyes, and I have walked in Your truth. 4I do not sit with deceitful men, nor keep company with hypocrites. 5I hate the mob of evildoers, and refuse to sit with the wicked. 6I wash my hands in innocence that I may go about Your altar, O LORD, 7to raise my voice in thanksgiving and declare all Your wonderful works. 8O LORD, I love the house where You dwell, the place where Your glory resides. 9Do not take my soul away with sinners, or my life with men of bloodshed, 10in whose hands are wicked schemes, whose right hands are full of bribes. 11But I will walk with integrity; redeem me and be merciful to me. 12My feet stand on level ground; in the congregations I will bless the LORD.
