38 these just named were princes in their clans, and their ancestral houses spread out to such an extent

39 that they went to the approaches of Gedor, east of the valley, seeking pasture for their flocks.

40 They found abundant and good pastures, and the land was spacious, quiet, and peaceful—for the Hamites dwelt there formerly.

41 They who have just been listed by name set out during the reign of Hezekiah, king of Judah, and attacked their tents and also the Meunites who were there. They put them under the ban that is still in force to this day and dwelt in their place because they found pasture there for their flocks.
