Genesis 10

¹ Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were sons born after the flood.

² The sons of Japheth; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.

³ And the sons of Gomer; Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.

⁴ And the sons of Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.

⁵ Of these were the isles of the nations divided in their lands, every one after his tongue; after their families, in their nations.

⁶ And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Put, and Canaan.

⁷ And the sons of Cush; Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabteca: and the sons of Raamah; Sheba, and Dedan.

⁸ And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.

⁹ He was a mighty hunter before the LORD: wherefore it is said, Like Nimrod a mighty hunter before the LORD.

¹⁰ And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

¹¹ Out of that land he went forth into Assyria, and builded Nineveh, and Rehoboth-Ir, and Calah,

¹² and Resen between Nineveh and Calah (the same is the great city).

¹³ And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,

¹⁴ and Pathrusim, and Casluhim (whence went forth the Philistines), and Caphtorim.

¹⁵ And Canaan begat Zidon his firstborn, and Heth;

¹⁶ and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgashite;

¹⁷ and the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite;

¹⁸ and the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite: and afterward were the families of the Canaanite spread abroad.

¹⁹ And the border of the Canaanite was from Zidon, as thou goest toward Gerar, unto Gaza; as thou goest toward Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboiim, unto Lasha.

²⁰ These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, in their nations.

²¹ And unto Shem, the father of all the children of Eber, the elder brother of Japheth, to him also were children born.

²² The sons of Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arpachshad, and Lud, and Aram.

²³ And the sons of Aram; Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.

²⁴ And Arpachshad begat Shelah; and Shelah begat Eber.

²⁵ And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother’s name was Joktan.

²⁶ And Joktan begat Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah;

²⁷ and Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah;

²⁸ and Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba;

²⁹ and Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab: all these were the sons of Joktan.

³⁰ And their dwelling was from Mesha, as thou goest toward Sephar, the mountain of the east.

³¹ These are the sons of Shem, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, after their nations.

³² These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations: and of these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.
