Out of that land went forth Ashur, and built Nineveh, and the city Rehoboth, and Calah,

The children of Shem; Elam, and Ashur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.

And Leah said, Happy am I, for the daughters will call me blessed: and she called his name Asher.

And the sons of Zilpah, Leah's handmaid; Gad, and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob, who were born to him in Padan-aram.

And the sons of Asher; Jimnah, and Ishuah, and Isui, and Beriah, and Serah their sister. And the sons of Beriah; Heber, and Malchiel.

Out of Asher his bread shall be fat, and he shall yield royal dainties.
