Here are the names of Israel’s [247] sons and family that went into Egypt with him:
Leah gave birth to a son. She named him Reuben. [166] Leah named him this because she said, “The Lord has seen my troubles. My husband doesn’t love me. So now maybe my husband will love me.”
With him were his sons and his grandsons, his daughters and his granddaughters. All of his family went with him into Egypt.
Reuben’s sons were Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.
These are the names of the men who will stand with you {and help you}:
“Let Reuben live, and not die! But let there be only a few people in his family group!”
