1 Chronicles 5:24-26

5:24 These were the leaders of their families: ¹ 

Epher, Ishi, Eliel, Azriel, Jeremiah, Hodaviah, and Jahdiel. They were skilled warriors, men of reputation, ²  and leaders of their families. 5:25 But they were unfaithful to the God of their ancestors ³  and worshiped instead ⁴  the gods of the native peoples ⁵  whom God had destroyed before them. 5:26 So the God of Israel stirred up ⁶  King Pul of Assyria (that is, King Tiglath-pileser of Assyria), ⁷  and he carried away the Reubenites, Gadites, and half-tribe of Manasseh and took them to Halah, Habor, Hara, and the river of Gozan, where they remain to this very day.
