²¹ Then he looked on the Kenites, and he took up his oracle and said:

^16 (A)Now the children of the Kenite, Moses’ father-in-law, went up ^(B)from the City of Palms with the children of Judah into the Wilderness of Judah, which lies in the South near ^(C)Arad; ^(D)and they went and dwelt among the people.

¹¹ Now Heber ^(A)the Kenite, of the children of ^(B)Hobab the father-in-law of Moses, had separated himself from the Kenites and pitched his tent near the terebinth tree at Zaanaim, ^(C)which is beside Kedesh.

¹⁷ However, Sisera had fled away on foot to the tent of ^(A)Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite; for there was peace between Jabin king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite.

⁶ Then Saul said to ^(A)the Kenites, ^(B)“Go, depart, get down from among the Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them. For ^(C)you showed kindness to all the children of Israel when they came up out of Egypt.” So the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites.

¹⁰ Then Achish would say, “Where have you made a raid today?” And David would say, “Against the southern area of Judah, or against the southern area of ^(A)the Jerahmeelites, or against the southern area of ^(B)the Kenites.”

²⁹ those who were in Rachal, those who were in the cities of ^(A)the Jerahmeelites, those who were in the cities of the ^(B)Kenites,

⁵⁵ And the families of the scribes who dwelt at Jabez were the Tirathites, the Shimeathites, and the Suchathites. These were the ^(A)Kenites who came from Hammath, the father of the house of ^(B)Rechab.
