1 Οι δε υιοί του Ρουβήν πρωτοτόκου του Ισραήλ, διότι ούτος ήτο ο πρωτότοκος· επειδή όμως εμίανε την κοίτην του πατρός αυτού, τα πρωτοτόκια αυτού εδόθησαν εις τους υιούς του Ιωσήφ, υιού του Ισραήλ· πλην ουχί διά να έχη τα πρωτοτόκια ως προς την γενεαλογίαν· 2 διότι ο Ιούδας υπερίσχυσεν υπέρ τους αδελφούς αυτού, ώστε εξ αυτού να εξέλθη ο ηγούμενος· τα πρωτοτόκια όμως ήσαν του Ιωσήφ· 3 οι υιοί του Ρουβήν πρωτοτόκου του Ισραήλ ήσαν Ανώχ και Φαλλού, Εσρών και Χαρμί. 4 υιοί του Ιωήλ, Σεμαΐας υιός τούτου, Γωγ υιός τούτου, Σιμεΐ υιός τούτου, 5 Μιχά υιός τούτου, Ρεαΐα υιός τούτου, Βάαλ υιός τούτου, 6 Βεηρά υιός τούτου, τον οποίον μετώκισεν ο Θελγάθ-φελνασάρ βασιλεύς της Ασσυρίας· ούτος ήτο ο αρχηγός των Ρουβηνιτών. 7 Και των αδελφών αυτού κατά τας συγγενείας αυτών, ότε η γενεαλογία των γενεών αυτών απηριθμήθη, οι αρχηγοί ήσαν Ιεϊήλ και Ζαχαρίας, 8 και Βελά ο υιός του Αζάζ, υιού του Σεμά, υιού του Ιωήλ· ούτος κατώκησεν εν Αροήρ και έως Νεβώ και Βάαλ-μεών· 9 και προς ανατολάς κατώκησεν έως της εισόδου της ερήμου από του Ευφράτου ποταμού· διότι τα κτήνη αυτών είχον πληθυνθή εν τη γη Γαλαάδ. 10 Και εν ταις ημέραις του Σαούλ έκαμον πόλεμον προς τους Αγαρηνούς, οίτινες έπεσον διά της χειρός αυτών· και κατώκησαν εν ταις σκηναίς αυτών καθ' όλον το ανατολικόν της Γαλαάδ. 11 Και οι υιοί του Γαδ κατώκησαν κατέναντι αυτών, εν τη γη Βασάν έως Σαλχά· 12 Ιωήλ ο αρχηγός και Σαφάμ ο δεύτερος, και Ιαναΐ και Σαφάτ, εν Βασάν. 13 Και οι αδελφοί αυτών εκ του οίκου των πατέρων αυτών ήσαν, Μιχαήλ και Μεσουλλάμ και Σεβά και Ιωράμ και Ιαχάν και Ζιέ και Έβερ, επτά. 14 ούτοι είναι οι υιοί του Αβιχαίλ υιού του Ουρί, υιού του Ιαροά, υιού του Γαλαάδ, υιού του Μιχαήλ, υιού του Ιεσισαΐ, υιού του Ιαδώ, υιού του Βουζ. 15 Αχί ο υιός του Αβδιήλ, υιού του Γουνί, ήτο ο αρχηγός του οίκου των πατέρων αυτών. 16 Και κατώκησαν εν Γαλαάδ, εν Βασάν και εν ταις κώμαις αυτής, και εν πάσι τοις περιχώροις Σαρών, έως των ορίων αυτών. 17 Πάντες ούτοι απηριθμήθησαν κατά την γενεαλογίαν αυτών εν ταις ημέραις του Ιωθάμ βασιλέως του Ιούδα, και εν ταις ημέραις του Ιεροβοάμ βασιλέως του Ισραήλ. 18 Οι υιοί του Ρουβήν και οι Γαδίται και το ήμισυ της φυλής του Μανασσή, εκ των δυνατών, άνδρες φέροντες ασπίδα και μάχαιραν και εντείνοντες τόξον και γεγυμνασμένοι εις πόλεμον, ήσαν τεσσαράκοντα τέσσαρες χιλιάδες και επτακόσιοι εξήκοντα, εξερχόμενοι εις πόλεμον. 19 Και έκαμνον πόλεμον προς τους Αγαρηνούς και Ιετουραίους και Ναφισαίους και Νοδαβαίους. 20 Και εβοηθήθησαν εναντίον αυτών, και οι Αγαρηνοί παρεδόθησαν εις τας χείρας αυτών και πάντες οι μετ' αυτών· διότι προς τον Θεόν εβόησαν εν τη μάχη, και επήκουσεν αυτών, επειδή ήλπισαν επ' αυτόν. 21 Και ηχμαλώτισαν τα κτήνη αυτών, τας καμήλους αυτών πεντήκοντα χιλιάδας, και πρόβατα διακοσίας πεντήκοντα χιλιάδας, και όνους δύο χιλιάδας, και ψυχάς ανθρώπων εκατόν χιλιάδας. 22 Διότι πολλοί έπεσον τεθανατωμένοι, επειδή ο πόλεμος ήτο εκ Θεού. Και κατώκησαν αντ' αυτών έως της μετοικεσίας. 23 Και οι υιοί του ημίσεος της φυλής Μανασσή κατώκησαν εν τη γή· ούτοι ηύξησαν από Βασάν έως Βάαλ-ερμών και Σενείρ και έως του όρους Αερμών· 24 Ούτοι δε ήσαν οι αρχηγοί του οίκου των πατέρων αυτών· Εφέρ και Ιεσεί και Ελιήλ και Αζριήλ και Ιερεμίας και Ωδουΐας και Ιαδιήλ, άνδρες δυνατοί εν ισχύϊ, άνδρες ονομαστοί, αρχηγοί του οίκου των πατέρων αυτών. 25 Και εστάθησαν παραβάται κατά του Θεού των πατέρων αυτών και επόρνευσαν κατόπιν των θεών των λαών της γης, τους οποίους ο Θεός ηφάνισεν απ' έμπροσθεν αυτών. 26 Διά τούτο ο Θεός του Ισραήλ διήγειρε το πνεύμα του Φούλ βασιλέως της Ασσυρίας και το πνεύμα του Θελγάθ-φελνασάρ βασιλέως της Ασσυρίας, και μετώκισεν αυτούς, τους Ρουβηνίτας και τους Γαδίτας και το ήμισυ της φυλής του Μανασσή, και έφερεν αυτούς εις Αλά και εις Αβώρ και εις Αρά και εις τον ποταμόν Γωζάν, έως της ημέρας ταύτης.
