And they went as far as Gedor, even unto the east side of the valley, to seek pasture for their cattle. And they found fat pasture and good and a wide land both quiet and fruitful: for they of Ham dwelt there before. And these now afore written by name went in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and smote the tents of them and the habitations that were found there, and destroyed them utterly unto this day, and there dwelt in their rooms: because there was pasture there for their sheep. read more.
And thereto there went of the said children of Simeon five hundred men - Pelatiah, Neariah, Rephaiah and Uzziel the sons of Ishi being their heads - and smote the rest of the Amalekites that were escaped and they dwelt there unto this day.

And the second lot came out unto the tribe of the children of Simeon by their kindreds. And their inheritance fell in the midst of the inheritance of the children of Judah. And their inheritance was Beersheba, Sheba, and Moladah; Hazarshual, Balah, and Ezem, read more.
Eltolad, Bethul and Hormah; Ziklag, Bethmarcaboth and Hazarsusah; Bethlebaoth, and Sharuhen: Thirteen cities with their villages. Aim, Rimmon, Ether and Ashan: Four cities with their villages. And thereto all the villages that lie round about these cities, even unto Baalathbeer and Ramah, southward. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Simeon in their kindreds. Out of the portion of the children of Judah came the inheritance of the children of Simeon. For the part of the children of Judah was too much for them: and therefore the children of Simeon had their inheritance in the inheritance of them.

Then Judah said unto Simeon his brother, "Come with me into my lot, and let us fight against the Cananites: And I likewise will go with thee into thy lot." And so Simeon went with him. And Judah went up, and the LORD delivered the Cananites and Perezites into their hands. And they slew of them in Bezek ten thousand men. And they found Adonibezek in Bezek. And they fought against him, and slew the Cananites and Perezites. read more.
But Adonibezek fled, and they followed after him, and caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes. Then Adonibezek said, "Three score and ten kings having their thumbs and great toes cut off, gathered their meat under my table wherefore as I have done so God hath done to me again." And they brought him to Jerusalem, and there he died. The children of Judah fought against Jerusalem and took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and set the city on fire. And after that, the children of Judah went even to fight against the Cananites that dwelt in the mountain, in the south, and in the low country. And Judah went unto the Cananites that dwelt in Hebron, which before time was called Kiriatharba. And slew Sheshai, Ahiman and Talmai. And from thence they went to the inhabiters of Debir, whose name in old time was called Kiriathsepher. And Caleb said, "He that smiteth Kiriathsepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife." And Othniel the son of Kenaz Caleb's younger brother took it: to whom he gave Achsah his daughter to wife, and as they went she counseled him to ask of her father a field. And then she lighted off her ass, and Caleb said unto her, "What aileth thee?" She said unto him, "Give me a blessing, for thou hast given me a southward and a dry land. Give me also springs of water." And Caleb gave her springs both above and beneath. And the children of the Kenite, Moses' father-in-law, went up out of the city of palm trees, with the children of Judah, into the wilderness of Judah that lieth in the South of Arad, and dwelt among the people. And Judah went and Simeon with him, and they slew the Cananites that inhabited Zephath, and utterly destroyed it, and called the name of the city Hormah.

The sons of Simeon: Nemuel, Jamin, Jarib, Zerah and Shaul, whose son was Shallum, and the son of him was Mibsam, and his son was Mishma. And the son of Mishma was Hammuel, and his son was Zaccur, and the son of him was Shimei. read more.
Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters. But his brethren had not many children, neither were the kindreds of them like to the children of Judah in multitude. And they dwelt at Beersheba, Moladah and at Hazarshual, at Bilhah, Ezem, Tolad, Bethuel, Hormah and at Ziklag; at Bethmarcaboth, Hazarsusim, Bethbiri, and Shaarim. These were their cities unto the reign of David. And their villages were Etam, Ain, Rimmon, Tochen and Ashan, five towns, and all their villages that were round about the said cities unto Baalathbeer. This is the habitation of them and their genealogy. And Meshobab, Jamlech, Joshah the son of Amaziah, and Joel and Jehu the son of Joshibiah the son of Seraiah the son of Asiel; and Elioenai, Jaakobah, Jeshohaiah, Asaiah, Adiel, Jesimiel and Benaiah; Ziza the son of Shiphi the son of Allon the son of Jedaiah the son of Shimri the son of Shemaiah. These are such as came by name, heads of these kindreds. And the ancient households of them spread in multitude. And they went as far as Gedor, even unto the east side of the valley, to seek pasture for their cattle. And they found fat pasture and good and a wide land both quiet and fruitful: for they of Ham dwelt there before. And these now afore written by name went in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and smote the tents of them and the habitations that were found there, and destroyed them utterly unto this day, and there dwelt in their rooms: because there was pasture there for their sheep.
