Genesis 10:7 ); Africans (
Isaiah 43:3 ). They were "men of stature," and engaged in merchandise (
Isaiah 45:14 ). Their conversion to the Lord was predicted (
Psalms 72:10 ). This word, in
Ezekiel 23:42 , should be read, as in the margin of the Authorized Version, and in the Revised Version, "drunkards." Another tribe, apparently given to war, is mentioned in
Job 1:15 .
