Emva kokuba esefile uHesironi eKalebi Efratha , u-Abiya, umkaHesironi, wamzalela u-Ashuri uyise kaThekhowa.

Laba babe ngamadodana kaKalebi: amadodana kaHure izibulo lika-Efratha: nguShobali uyise kaKiriyati Jeharimi,

noPhenuweli, uyise kaGedori, no-Ezeri, uyise kaHusha . Yilabo ababe ngamadodana kaHure izibulo lika-Efratha, uyise kaBetlehema.

Bheka, sizwile ngakho e-Efratha, sakufumana ezweni laseJari.

Igama lalowo muntu lalingu-Elimeleki, igama lomkakhe lalinguNawomi , amagama amadodana akhe amabili ayengoMahaloni noKiliyoni; babe ngama- Efratha aseBetlehema Juda. Bafika ezweni lakwaMowabi, bahlala khona.

Bonke abantu ababesesangweni namalunga bathi : Singofakazi; uJehova makenze lowo wesifazane ongene endlini yakho abe njengoRaheli noLeya abakha bobabili indlu yakwa -Israyeli, ucebe e -Efratha, ube nodumo eBetlehema;
