¹ And these [are] births of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth; and born to them are sons after the deluge.

² `Sons of Japheth [are] Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.

³ And sons of Gomer [are] Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.

⁴ And sons of Javan [are] Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.

⁵ By these have the isles of the nations been parted in their lands, each by his tongue, by their families, in their nations.

⁶ And sons of Ham [are] Cush, and Mitzraim, and Phut, and Canaan.

⁷ And sons of Cush [are] Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtechah; and sons of Raamah [are] Sheba and Dedan.

⁸ And Cush hath begotten Nimrod;

⁹ he hath begun to be a hero in the land; he hath been a hero in hunting before Jehovah; therefore it is said, `As Nimrod the hero [in] hunting before Jehovah.'

¹⁰ And the first part of his kingdom is Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar;

¹¹ from that land he hath gone out to Asshur, and buildeth Nineveh, even the broad places of the city, and Calah,

¹² and Resen, between Nineveh and Calah; it [is] the great city.

¹³ And Mitzraim hath begotten the Ludim, and the Anamim, and the Lehabim, and the Naphtuhim,

¹⁴ and the Pathrusim, and the Casluhim, (whence have come out Philistim,) and the Caphtorim.

¹⁵ And Canaan hath begotten Sidon his first-born, 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 afterwards have the families of the Canaanite been scattered.

¹⁹ And the border of the Canaanite is from Sidon, [in] thy coming towards Gerar, unto Gaza; [in] thy coming towards Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, unto Lasha.

²⁰ These [are] sons of Ham, by their families, by their tongues, in their lands, in their nations.

²¹ As to Shem, father of all sons of Eber, brother of Japheth the elder, he hath also begotten:

²² Sons of Shem [are] Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.

²³ And sons of Aram [are] Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.

²⁴ And Arphaxad hath begotten Salah, and Salah hath begotten Eber.

²⁵ And to Eber have two sons been born; the name of the one [is] Peleg (for in his days hath the earth been divided,) and his brother's name [is] Joktan.

²⁶ And Joktan hath begotten 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 [are] sons of Joktan;

³⁰ and their dwelling is from Mesha, [in] thy coming towards Sephar, a mount of the east.

³¹ These [are] sons of Shem, by their families, by their tongues, in their lands, by their nations.

³² These [are] families of the sons of Noah, by their births, in their nations, and by these have the nations been parted in the earth after the deluge.

¹ Now this is the history of the generations of the sons of Noah and of Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons were born to them after the flood.

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

³ The sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.

⁴ The sons of Javan: Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.

⁶ The sons of Ham: Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.

⁷ The sons of Cush: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. The sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan.

⁸ Cush became the father of Nimrod. He began to be a mighty one in the earth.

⁹ He was a mighty hunter before Yahweh. Therefore it is said, "Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before Yahweh."

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

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

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

¹³ Mizraim became the father of Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim,

¹⁶ the Jebusite, the Amorite, the Girgashite,

¹⁷ the Hivite, the Arkite, the Sinite,

¹⁸ the Arvadite, the Zemarite, and the Hamathite. Afterward the families of the Canaanites were spread abroad.

¹⁹ The border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as you go toward Gerar, to Gaza; as you go toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, to Lasha.

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

²¹ To 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, Asshur, Arpachshad, Lud, and Aram.

²³ The sons of Aram: Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.

²⁴ Arpachshad became the father of Shelah. Shelah became the father of Eber.

²⁵ To Eber were born two sons. The name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided. His brother's name was Joktan.

²⁶ Joktan became the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah,

²⁷ Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,

²⁸ Obal, Abimael, Sheba,

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

³⁰ Their dwelling was from Mesha, as you go toward Sephar, the mountain of the east.

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

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