1 These were Israel's sons: Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Zebulun, 2 Dan, Joseph, Benjamin, Naphtali, Gad, and Asher. 3 Judah's sons were Er, Onan, and Shelah. These three were born to him by Bathshua, a Canaanite woman. The LORD considered Er, Judah's firstborn, evil, so the LORD killed Er. 4 Tamar, Judah's daughter-in-law, gave birth to Judah's sons Perez and Zerah. Judah had five sons in all. 5 Perez's sons were Hezron and Hamul. 6 Zerah's sons were Zimri, Ethan, Heman, Calcol, and Dara-five in all. 7 Carmi's son was Achar, who caused trouble for Israel by taking goods that were claimed by God. 8 Ethan's son was Azariah. 1 Chronicles 2:1-8, God's Word Translation.
