1 Chronicles 4:39-41

Context
4:39 They went to the entrance of Gedor, to the east of the valley, looking for pasture for their sheep. 4:40 They found fertile and rich pasture; the land was very broad, undisturbed and peaceful. Indeed some Hamites had been living there prior to that. 4:41 The men whose names are listed came during the time of King Hezekiah of Judah and attacked the Hamites’ settlements, 1  as well as the Meunites they discovered there, and they wiped them out to this very day. They dispossessed them, 2  for they found pasture for their sheep there.

1 tn The Hebrew text reads “their tents,” apparently referring to those of the Hamites mentioned at the end of v. 40. Some prefer to emend the text to read, “the tents of Ham.”

2 tn Heb “and they lived in place of them.”
