旧约 - 历代记上(1 Chronicles)第4章

The descendants of Judah: Perez, Hezron, Carmi, Hur and Shobal.
Reaiah son of Shobal was the father of Jahath, and Jahath the father of Ahumai and Lahad. These were the clans of the Zorathites.
These were the sons of Etam: Jezreel, Ishma and Idbash. Their sister was named Hazzelelponi.
Penuel was the father of Gedor, and Ezer the father of Hushah. These were the descendants of Hur, the firstborn of Ephrathah and father of Bethlehem.
Ashhur the father of Tekoa had two wives, Helah and Naarah.
Naarah bore him Ahuzzam, Hepher, Temeni and Haahashtari. These were the descendants of Naarah.
The sons of Helah: Zereth, Zohar, Ethnan,
and Koz, who was the father of Anub and Hazzobebah and of the clans of Aharhel son of Harum.
Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez, saying, "I gave birth to him in pain."
Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, "Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain." And God granted his request.
Kelub, Shuhah's brother, was the father of Mehir, who was the father of Eshton.
Eshton was the father of Beth Rapha, Paseah and Tehinnah the father of Ir Nahash. These were the men of Recah.
The sons of Kenaz: Othniel and Seraiah. The sons of Othniel: Hathath and Meonothai.
Meonothai was the father of Ophrah. Seraiah was the father of Joab, the father of Ge Harashim. It was called this because its people were craftsmen.
The sons of Caleb son of Jephunneh: Iru, Elah and Naam. The son of Elah: Kenaz.
The sons of Jehallelel: Ziph, Ziphah, Tiria and Asarel.
The sons of Ezrah: Jether, Mered, Epher and Jalon. One of Mered's wives gave birth to Miriam, Shammai and Ishbah the father of Eshtemoa.
(His Judean wife gave birth to Jered the father of Gedor, Heber the father of Soco, and Jekuthiel the father of Zanoah.) These were the children of Pharaoh's daughter Bithiah, whom Mered had married.
The sons of Hodiah's wife, the sister of Naham: the father of Keilah the Garmite, and Eshtemoa the Maacathite.
The sons of Shimon: Amnon, Rinnah, Ben-Hanan and Tilon. The descendants of Ishi: Zoheth and Ben-Zoheth.
The sons of Shelah son of Judah: Er the father of Lecah, Laadah the father of Mareshah and the clans of the linen workers at Beth Ashbea,
Jokim, the men of Cozeba, and Joash and Saraph, who ruled in Moab and Jashubi Lehem. (These records are from ancient times.)
They were the potters who lived at Netaim and Gederah; they stayed there and worked for the king.
The descendants of Simeon: Nemuel, Jamin, Jarib, Zerah and Shaul;
Shallum was Shaul's son, Mibsam his son and Mishma his son.
The descendants of Mishma: Hammuel his son, Zaccur his son and Shimei his son.
Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters, but his brothers did not have many children; so their entire clan did not become as numerous as the people of Judah.
They lived in Beersheba, Moladah, Hazar Shual,
Bilhah, Ezem, Tolad,
Bethuel, Hormah, Ziklag,
Beth Marcaboth, Hazar Susim, Beth Biri and Shaaraim. These were their towns until the reign of David.
Their surrounding villages were Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Token and Ashan--five towns--
and all the villages around these towns as far as Baalath. These were their settlements. And they kept a genealogical record.
Meshobab, Jamlech, Joshah son of Amaziah,
Joel, Jehu son of Joshibiah, the son of Seraiah, the son of Asiel,
also Elioenai, Jaakobah, Jeshohaiah, Asaiah, Adiel, Jesimiel, Benaiah,
and Ziza son of Shiphi, the son of Allon, the son of Jedaiah, the son of Shimri, the son of Shemaiah.
The men listed above by name were leaders of their clans. Their families increased greatly,
and they went to the outskirts of Gedor to the east of the valley in search of pasture for their flocks.
They found rich, good pasture, and the land was spacious, peaceful and quiet. Some Hamites had lived there formerly.
The men whose names were listed came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah. They attacked the Hamites in their dwellings and also the Meunites who were there and completely destroyed them, as is evident to this day. Then they settled in their place, because there was pasture for their flocks.
And five hundred of these Simeonites, led by Pelatiah, Neariah, Rephaiah and Uzziel, the sons of Ishi, invaded the hill country of Seir.
They killed the remaining Amalekites who had escaped, and they have lived there to this day.
历代志上第四章   第 4 章 

  代上 4:9-10> 我也愿意像雅比斯一样每日求神…… 

  4:9-10 雅比斯令后人纪念的是他所祈求的事,而不是英勇的作为。他求神( 1 )赐福与他,( 2 )帮助他的工作( " 扩张我的境界 " ),( 3 )在他所行的一切事上与他同在,( 4 )保佑他不遭患难、不遇艰苦。他承认神才是他生命的重心。我们求神赐福时,也应当求祂在我们的事业、家庭、娱乐中掌管一切。凡事顺服神,才能过又美好又得胜的生活! 

  代上 4:10> 我也想像雅比斯那样祈求神……只是这样祈求完全吗? 

  4:10 雅比斯切切地求神保护他免遭患难、不遇艰苦。我们处身罪恶滔滔的世界,也要求神保守我们平安,不受外面来势汹汹的恶者侵害。但是我们亦当谨慎自守,避免产生邪恶的动机、欲望和行为。所以,不但要求神保护不遇凶恶,也应当求祂引导我们的思想与行为。我们可以从让神使我们的内心充满良善的意念开始,来运用神的保护。 

  代上 4:13> 俄陀聂的事迹你记得多少? 

  4:13 俄陀聂是以色列头一位士师。他大施改革,使国中得享太平,他的事迹记在士师记 1 章 9 至 15 与 3 章 5 至 14 节中。 

  代上 4:15> 神给我的应许是……我也这样相信? 

  4:15 迦勒被摩西差去窥探迦南地,是十二探子之一。只有他与约书亚二人回来作了正面的报告。他们相信神的应许必能帮助以色列人攻占迦南地。迦勒的事迹见民数记 13 至 14 章、约书亚记 14 至 15 章,其生平介绍请参看民数记 13 章的人物介绍。
