¹ And these are the generations of the sons of Noah: Shem, Ham, and Japheth; and to 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 From these came the distribution of the isles of the nations, according to their lands, every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations.

⁶ And the sons of Ham: Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan.

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

⁸ And Cush begot Nimrod: he began to be mighty on the earth.

⁹ He was a mighty hunter before Jehovah; therefore it is said, As Nimrod, the mighty hunter before Jehovah!

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

¹¹ From that land went out Asshur, and built Nineveh, and Rehoboth-Ir, and Calah,

¹² and Resen, between Nineveh and Calah: this is the great city.

¹³ -- And Mizraim begot the Ludim, and the Anamim, and the Lehabim, and the Naphtuhim,

¹⁴ and the Pathrusim, and the Casluhim, out of whom came the Philistines, and the Caphtorim.

¹⁵ -- And Canaan begot Sidon, 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 afterwards the families of the Canaanites spread themselves abroad.

¹⁹ And the border of the Canaanite was from Sidon, as one goes to Gerar, up to Gazah; as one goes to Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, up to Lesha.

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

²¹ And to Shem -- to him also were [sons] born; he is the father of all the sons of Eber, the brother of Japheth the elder.

²² The sons of Shem: Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.

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

²⁴ -- And Arphaxad begot Shelah; and Shelah begot Eber.

²⁵ And to 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 begot 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 sons of Joktan.

³⁰ And their dwelling was from Mesha, as one goes to Sephar, the eastern mountain.

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 from these came the distribution of the nations on the earth after the flood.

¹ "I am the true vine, and my Father is the farmer.

² Every branch in me that doesn't bear fruit, he takes away. Every branch that bears fruit, he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.

³ You are already pruned clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.

⁴ Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch can't bear fruit by itself, unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you, unless you remain in me.

⁵ I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me, and I in him, the same bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

⁶ If a man doesn't remain in me, he is thrown out as a branch, and is withered; and they gather them, throw them into the fire, and they are burned.

⁷ If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, you will ask whatever you desire, and it will be done for you.

⁸ "In this is my Father glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples.

⁹ Even as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you. Remain in my love.

¹⁰ If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and remain in his love.

¹¹ I have spoken these things to you, that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be made full.

¹² "This is my commandment, that you love one another, even as I have loved you.

¹³ Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.

¹⁴ You are my friends, if you do whatever I command you.

¹⁵ No longer do I call you servants, for the servant doesn't know what his lord does. But I have called you friends, for everything that I heard from my Father, I have made known to you.

¹⁶ You didn't choose me, but I chose you, and appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain; that whatever you will ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

¹⁷ "I command these things to you, that you may love one another.

¹⁸ If the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you.

¹⁹ If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, since I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
