[33]And Ner begot Kis, and Kis begot Saul, and Saul begot Jonathan, and Melchisue, and Aminadab, and Asabal. [34]And the son of Jonathan was Meribaal; and Meribaal begot Micha. [35]And the sons of Micha; Phithon, and Melach, and Tharach, and Achaz.

[38]And Esel had six sons, and these were their name; Ezricam his first-born, and Ismael, and Saraia, and Abdia, and Anan, and Asa: all these were the sons of Esel.
