40 They found rich, good pasture, and the land was broad, peaceful, and quiet, for some Hamites had lived there previously.
41 These who were recorded by name came in the days of King Hezekiah of Judah, attacked the Hamites’ tents and the Meunites who were found there, and set them apart for destruction, as they are today. Then they settled in their place because there was pasture for their flocks.
42 Now 500 men from these sons of Simeon went with Pelatiah, Neariah, Rephaiah, and Uzziel, the sons of Ishi, as their leaders to Mount Seir.
43 They struck down the remnant of the Amalekites who had escaped, and they still live there today.
