King James Bible
And in Gibeon dwelt the father of Gibeon, Jehiel, whose wife's name was Maachah:

American Standard Version
And in Gibeon there dwelt the father of Gibeon, Jeiel, whose wife's name was Maacah:

Young's Literal Translation
And in Gibeon dwelt hath the father of Gibeon, Jehiel, and the name of his wife is Maachah;

1 Chronicles 9:35 Additional Translations
Clarke's Commentary on the Bible

Whose wife's name was Maachah - Here our translators have departed from the original, for the word is אחתו achotho, his Sister; but the Vulgate, Septuagint, Syriac, Arabic, and Chaldee, have Wife; to which may be added 1 Chronicles 8:29, the parallel place. Almost all the early editions, as well as the MS. editions, have the same reading. Of all the Polyglots the Complutensian alone has אשתו ishto, his Wife. His wife is the reading also of Vatablus's Polyglot, but in the margin he observes that other copies have his sister. There is most certainly a fault somewhere, for Maachah could not be both the sister and wife of Jehiel. Whether, therefore, 1 Chronicles 8:29 has been altered from this, or this altered from that, who can tell? A single letter makes the whole difference: if the word be written with ח cheth, it is Sister; if with ש shin, it is Wife. The latter is most probably the true reading. It is so in three very ancient MSS. in my own possession.

1 Chronicles 8:29 And at Gibeon dwelled the father of Gibeon; whose wife's name was Maachah:

is {ishto}, `his wife,' which is also the reading of the LXX., Vulgate, Arabic, and Syriac here, and is undoubtedly the true reading. This repetition of part of Bemjamin's genealogy seems to have been intended merely as an introduction to the ensuing history.
