Simei aber hatte sechzehn Söhne und sechs Töchter, während seine Brüder nicht viele Kinder hatten, und ihr Geschlecht vermehrte sich nicht so, daß sie die Zahl der Judäer erreicht hätten.

32 They also lived in villages near those towns: Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Token, and Ashan.
Ihre Dörfer aber waren Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Thochen und Asan - fünf Ortschaften;

39 They went outside of Gedor [town] on the east side of the valley to look for pastureland for their flocks of sheep.
Und sie zogen bis da, wo es nach Gedor hineingeht, bis östlich vom Thale, um für ihre Herden Weideplätze zu suchen.
40 They found good pastureland with plenty of grass. The place was peaceful and quiet. Previously the descendants of [Noah’s son] Ham had lived there.
Und sie fanden fette und gute Weide, und das Land war geräumig, ruhig und friedlich; denn die vorher dort gewohnt hatten, gehörten zu den Hamiten.
41 But while Hezekiah was the king of Judah, the leaders of the tribe of Simeon came to Gedor and fought against the descendants of Ham and destroyed their tents. They also fought against the descendants of Meun who were living there, and they killed all of them. So now there are no descendants of Meun living there. The descendants of Simeon started to live there, because there was good pastureland there for their sheep.
Da kamen die oben mit Namen Verzeichneten zur Zeit Hiskias, des Königs von Juda, zerstörten ihre Zelte und schlugen die Meuniter, die sich dort befanden, und vollstreckten den Bann an ihnen, bis auf den heutigen Tag, und wohnten an ihrer Statt; denn es gab dort Weideplätze für ihre Herden.
42 Ishi’s four sons Pelatiah, Neariah, Rephaiah and Uzziel led 500 other descendants of Simeon [and attacked the people who were living] in the hilly area of the Edom [region].
Und ein Teil von ihnen, den Simeoniten, zog auf das Gebirge Seir - fünfhundert Mann; an ihrer Spitze Pelatja, Nearja, Rephaja und Ussiel, die Söhne Jiseis.
43 They killed the few descendants of Amalek who were still alive. From that time until now, the descendants of Simeon have lived in [the] Edom [region].
Und sie erschlugen die letzten Überreste der Amalekiter und blieben dort wohnen bis auf den heutigen Tag.
