1 Chronicles 4:38-40

Amplified Bible

³⁸ these mentioned by name were leaders in their families; and their fathers’ houses increased greatly [so they needed more land]. ³⁹ So they journeyed to the entrance of Gedor, to the east side of the valley, to seek pasture for their flocks. ⁴⁰ They found rich, good pasture, and the [cleared] land was wide, quiet, and peaceful; for those who had lived there previously came from Ham [and had left it a better place for those who came after them].
