1 Chronicles 5:25

The Assyrians Capture Gad, Reuben, And Half Of The Tribe Of Manasseh

²⁴ These were the leaders of their families: Epher, Ishi, Eliel, Azriel, Jeremiah, Hodaviah, and Jahdiel. They were skilled warriors, men of reputation, and leaders of their families. ²⁵ But they were unfaithful to the God of their ancestors and worshiped instead the gods of the native peoples whom God had destroyed before them. ²⁶ So the God of Israel stirred up King Pul of Assyria (that is, King Tiglath-pileser of Assyria), and he carried away the Reubenites, Gadites, and half-tribe of Manasseh and took them to Halah, Habor, Hara, and the river of Gozan, where they remain to this very day.
