Living Bible
14 The sons of Manasseh, born to his Aramaean concubine, were Asriel and Machir (who became the father of Gilead).
15 It was Machir who found wives for Huppim and Shuppim.[a] Machir’s sister was Maacah. Another descendant was Zelophehad, who had only daughters.
16 Machir’s wife, also named Maacah, bore him a son whom she named Peresh; his brother’s name was Sheresh, and he had sons named Ulam and Rakem.
17 Ulam’s son was Bedan. So these were the sons of Gilead, the grandsons of Machir, and the great-grandsons of Manasseh.
18 Hammolecheth, Machir’s sister, bore Ishhod, Abiezer, and Mahlah.
19 The sons of Shemida were Ahian, Shechem, Likhi, and Aniam.
