The sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel, and the birthright given to the sons of Joseph

이스라엘의 장자 르우벤의 아들들과 요셉의 자손에게로 돌아간 장자의 명분

1 Chronicles 5:1–3: the text opens, “The sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel”, and both editions set in parentheses the words “for he was the firstborn, but because he defiled his father’s couch, his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph the son of Israel; and the genealogy is not to be listed according to the birthright. For Judah prevailed above his brothers, and from him came the prince; but the birthright was Joseph’s”; 5:3 goes on, “the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel: Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.” The Korean Revised Version names Reuben inside the parentheses (르우벤은 장자라도, Reuben, though the firstborn) where WEB reads “for he was the firstborn”, and names Judah twice at 5:2 (주권자가 유다로 말미암아 났을찌라도, though the prince came from Judah) where WEB reads “from him came the prince”.
