9 [There was another descendant of Judah whose name was] Jabez. [He] was more respected than his brothers were. His mother named him Jabez [which means ‘pain’] because she said, “I was enduring much pain when I gave birth to him.”
ヤベヅはその兄弟の中にて最も尊ばれたる者なりきその母我くるしみてこれを產たればといひてその名をヤベヅ(くるしみ)と名けたり
10 [One day] he prayed to God whom his fellow Israelis [worshiped], saying, “Please greatly bless me and (enlarge my land/give me a lot of land/property). Remain [IDM] with me, and do not allow anyone to harm me. If you do that for me, I will not have any pain.” And God did what Jabez requested him to do.
ヤベヅ、イスラエルの神に龥はり我を祝福に祝福て我境を擴め御手をもて我を助け我をして災難に罹りてくるしむこと無らしめたまへと言り神その求むる所を允したまふ

Othniel’s sons were Hathath and Meonothai. Meonothai was the father of Ophrah. Seraiah was the father of Joab. Joab was the ancestor of the people who lived in Craftsmen’s Valley.

ならびにモアブに主たりしヨキム、コゼバの人々ヨアシおよびサラフ等なり またヤシユブ、レハムといふ者ありその記録は古し
23 They made pottery for the king; some of them lived in Netaim [town] and some of them lived in Gederah [town].
是等の者は陶工にしてネタイムおよびゲデラに住み王の地に居りてその用をなせり

シヤウルの子はシヤルム その子はミブサムその子はミシマ
26 Mishma’s son was Hammuel. Hammuel’s son was Zaccur. Zaccur’s son was Shimei.
ミシマの子はハムエル その子はザツクル その子はシメイ
27 Shimei had 16 sons and six daughters, but none of his brothers had many children. So the descendants of Simeon never were as many as the descendants of [his younger brother] Judah.
シメイには男子十六人女子六人ありしがその兄弟等には多の子あらざりきまたその宗族の者は凡てユダの子孫ほどには殖増ざりき
28 The descendants of Simeon lived in [these cities and towns]: Beersheba, Moladah, Hazar-Shual,
彼らの住る處はベエルシバ、モラダ、ハザルシユアル
29 Bilhah, Ezem, Tolad,
ビルハ、エゼム、トラデ
30 Bethuel, Hormah, Ziklag,
ベトエル、ホルマ、チクラグ
31 Beth-Marcaboth, Hazar-Susim, Beth-Biri, and Shaaraim. They lived in those places until David became king.
ベテマルカボテ、ハザルスシム、ベテビリ、シヤライム是等の邑はダビデの世にたるまで彼等の有たりき
32 They also lived in villages near those towns: Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Token, and Ashan.
その村郷はエタム、アイン、リンモン、トケン、アシヤンの五の邑なり
33 There were other villages where they lived, as far [southwest] as Baalath [town]. Those were the places where they lived, and their names, according to the family records.
またこの邑々の周圍に衆多の村ありてバアルにまでおよべり彼らの住處は是のごとくにして彼ら各々系譜あり
34 The men in the following list were the leaders of their clans: Meshobab, Jamlech, Joshah the son of Amaziah, Joel, and Jehu the son of Joshibiah. Joshibiah was the son of Seraiah and the grandson of Asiel. Other clan leaders were Elioenai, Jaakobah, Jeshohaiah, Asaiah, Adiel, Jesimiel, Benaiah, and Ziza. Ziza was the son of Shiphi and the grandson of Allon, who was the son of Jedaiah, who was the son of Shimri, who was the son of Shemaiah. Those families became very large/numerous.

39 They went outside of Gedor [town] on the east side of the valley to look for pastureland for their flocks of sheep.
彼等はその群のために牧場を求めんとてゲドルの西におもむき谷の東の方にいたり
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.
つひに膏腴なる善き牧場を見いだせしがその地は廣く靜穩にして安寧なりき其は昔より其處に住たりし者はハム人なればなり
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.
即ち上にその名を記したる者等ユダの王ヒゼキヤの代に往て彼らの幕屋を撃やぶり彼らと其處に居しメウニ人を盡く滅ぼし之に代りて其處に住て今日にいたる是はその群を牧べき牧場其處にありたればなり
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].
またシメオンの子孫の者五百人許イシの子等ペラテア、ネアリア、レバヤ、ウジエルを長としてセイル山に攻ゆき
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].
アマレキ人の逃れて遺れる者を撃ほろぼして今日まで其處に住り
