Verse 28 of 43. The 4th of 29 chapters in 1 Chronicles, in History.

24The sons of Simeon were, Nemuel, and Jamin, Jarib, Zerah, and Shaul:

25Shallum his son, Mibsam his son, Mishma his son.

26And the sons of Mishma; Hamuel his son, Zacchur his son, Shimei his son.

Matthew Henry on 1 Chronicles 4:28

The ground they got elsewhere.
