14 Sons of Manasseh: Ashriel, whom Jaladah his Aramaean concubine bare, with Machir father of Gilead. 15 And Machir took wives for Huppim and for Shuppim, and the name of the one 'is' Maachah, and the name of the second Zelophehad, and Zelophehad hath daughters. 16 And Maachah wife of Machir beareth a son and calleth his name Peresh, and the name of his brother 'is' Sheresh, and his sons 'are' Ulam and Rakem.

Men become abominable when they forsake the worship of the true God, for any creature object.
