1 Chronicles 5:11-22

¹¹The descendants of Gad lived next to the Reubenites in the land of Bashan, as far as Salecah:

¹²Joel was the chief, Shapham the second, then Jaanai and Shaphat, who lived in Bashan.

¹³Their kinsmen by families were Michael, Meshullam, Sheba, Jorai, Jacan, Zia, and Eber—seven in all.

¹⁴These were the sons of Abihail 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.

¹⁵Ahi son of Abdiel, the son of Guni, was head of their family.

¹⁶They lived in Gilead, in Bashan and its towns, and throughout the pasturelands of Sharon.

¹⁷All of them were reckoned in the genealogies during the reigns of Jotham king of Judah and Jeroboam king of Israel.

¹⁸The Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh had 44, 760 warriors—valiant men who carried the shield and sword, drew the bow, and were trained for battle.

¹⁹They waged war against the Hagrites, as well as Jetur, Naphish, and Nodab.

²⁰And because they cried out to God in battle, they were helped against their enemies, and the Hagrites and all their allies were delivered into their hands. Because they put their trust in God, He answered their prayers.

²¹They seized the livestock of the Hagrites—50, 000 camels, 250, 000 sheep, and 2, 000 donkeys. They also took 100, 000 captives,

²²and many others fell slain, because the battle belonged to God. And they occupied the land until the exile.
