- 1Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, [namely], of Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were sons born after the flood.
- 2The sons of Japheth: Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.
- 3And the sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.
- 4And the sons of Javan: Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.
- 5Of these were the isles of the nations divided in their lands, every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations.
- 6And the sons of Ham: Cush, and Mizraim, and Put, and Canaan.
- 7And the sons of Cush: Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabteca; and the sons of Raamah: Sheba, and Dedan.
- 8And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.
- 9He was a mighty hunter before Jehovah: wherefore it is said, Like Nimrod a mighty hunter before Jehovah.
- 10And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
- 11Out of that land he went forth into Assyria, and builded Nineveh, and Rehoboth-ir, and Calah,
- 12and Resen between Nineveh and Calah (the same is the great city).
- 13And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,
- 14and Pathrusim, and Casluhim (whence went forth the Philistines), and Caphtorim.
- 15And Canaan begat Sidon his first-born, and Heth,
- 16and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgashite,
- 17and the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite,
- 18and the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite: and afterward were the families of the Canaanite spread abroad.
- 19And the border of the Canaanite was from Sidon, as thou goest toward Gerar, unto Gaza; as thou goest toward Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboiim, unto Lasha.
- 20These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, in their nations.
- 21And unto Shem, the father of all the children of Eber, the elder brother of Japheth, to him also were children born.
- 22The sons of Shem: Elam, and Asshur, and Arpachshad, and Lud, and Aram.
- 23And the sons of Aram: Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.
- 24And Arpachshad begat Shelah; and Shelah begat Eber.
- 25And 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.
- 26And Joktan begat Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah,
- 27and Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah,
- 28and Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba,
- 29and Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab: all these were the sons of Joktan.
- 30And their dwelling was from Mesha, as thou goest toward Sephar, the mountain of the east.
- 31These are the sons of Shem, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, after their nations.
- 32These 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.
