The sons of Judah were Er, Onan, and Shelah. These three were born to him by the daughter of Shua, the Canaanitess. Er, the firstborn of Judah, was wicked in the sight of the Lord; so He killed him.
4
And Tamar, his daughter-in-law, bore him Perez and Zerah. All the sons of Judah were five.
5
The sons of Perez were Hezron and Hamul.
6
The sons of Zerah were Zimri, Ethan, Heman, Calcol, and Dara--five of them in all.
7
The son of Carmi was Achar, the troubler of Israel, who transgressed in the accursed thing.
8
The son of Ethan was Azariah.
9
Also the sons of Hezron who were born to him were Jerahmeel, Ram, and Chelubai.
10
Ram begot Amminadab, and Amminadab begot Nahshon, leader of the children of Judah;
11
Nahshon begot Salma, and Salma begot Boaz;
12
Boaz begot Obed, and Obed begot Jesse;
13
Jesse begot Eliab his firstborn, Abinadab the second, Shimea the third,
14
Nethanel the fourth, Raddai the fifth,
15
Ozem the sixth, and David the seventh.

Now their sisters were Zeruiah and Abigail. And the sons of Zeruiah were Abishai, Joab, and Asahel--three.
17
Abigail bore Amasa; and the father of Amasa was Jether the Ishmaelite.
18
Caleb the son of Hezron had children by Azubah, his wife, and by Jerioth. Now these were her sons: Jesher, Shobab, and Ardon.
19
When Azubah died, Caleb took Ephrath as his wife, who bore him Hur.
20
And Hur begot Uri, and Uri begot Bezalel.
21
Now afterward Hezron went in to the daughter of Machir the father of Gilead, whom he married when he was sixty years old; and she bore him Segub.
22
Segub begot Jair, who had twenty-three cities in the land of Gilead.
23
(Geshur and Syria took from them the towns of Jair, with Kenath and its towns--sixty towns.) All these belonged to the sons of Machir the father of Gilead.
