1 Chronicles 4:9-11

21st Century King James Version

⁹ And Jabez was more honorable than his brethren; and his mother called his name Jabez [that is, Sorrowful], saying, “Because I bore him with sorrow.”

¹⁰ And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, “Oh that Thou wouldest bless me indeed and enlarge my borders, and that Thine hand might be with me and that Thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me!” And God granted him that which he requested.

¹¹ And Chelub the brother of Shuhah begot Mehir, who was the father of Eshton.
