Genesis 10

Study

   

1 Tai yra Nojaus sūnų Semo, Chamo ir Jafeto palikuonys. Tvanui praėjus, jie susilaukė sūnų.

2 Jafeto sūnūs: Gomeras, Magogas, Madajas, Javanas, Tubalas, Mešechas ir Tyras.

3 Gomero sūnūs: Aškenazas, ifatas ir Togarma.

4 Javano sūnūs: Eliša, Taršišas, Kitimas ir Dodanimas.

5 Iš šitų atsirado tautų grupės, gyvenančios savo žemėse, kiekviena su savo kalba ir pagal savo giminę savo tautose.

6 Chamo sūnūs: Kušas, Mizraimas, Putas ir Kanaanas.

7 Kušo sūnūs: Seba, Havila, Sabta, ama ir Sabtecha. amos sūnūs: Šeba ir Dedanas.

8 Kušui gimė ir Nimrodas, kuris tapo galingas žemėje.

9 Jis buvo smarkus medžiotojas Viešpaties akyse. Todėl sakoma: “Smarkus medžiotojas kaip Nimrodas Viešpaties akyse”.

10 Jo karalystės pradžia buvo Babelė, Erechas, Akadas ir Kalnė Šinaro šalyje.

11 Iš čia jis išvyko į Asūrą ir pasistatė Ninevę, ehobot Irą, Kelachą

12 ir eseną tarp Ninevės ir Kelacho; tai yra didysis miestas.

13 Mizraimo sūnūs: Ludas, Anamimas, Lehabas, Naftuchimas,

14 Patrusimas, Kasluhas, iš kurio kilo filistinai, ir Kaftoras.

15 Kanaano palikuonys: pirmagimis Sidonas, Hetas,

16 jebusiečiai, amoritai, girgašai,

17 hivai, arkai, sinai,

18 arvadiečiai, cemarai ir hematiečiai. Taip kanaaniečių giminės išsiplėtė.

19 Kanaaniečių ribos tęsėsi nuo Sidono link Geraro iki Gazos, link Sodomos, Gomoros, Admos bei Ceboimų iki Lešos.

20 Tai Chamo palikuonys pagal jų gentis, kalbas, šalis bei tautas.

21 Semas, visų Ebero sūnų tėvas, vyresnysis Jafeto brolis, taip pat turėjo sūnų.

22 Semo sūnūs: Elamas, Asūras, Arfaksadas, Ludas ir Aramas.

23 Aramo sūnūs: Ucas, Hulas, Geteras ir Mašas.

24 Arfaksado sūnus­Sala, o Salos­Eberas.

25 Eberas turėjo du sūnus: vienas vardu Falekas, nes jo dienomis buvo padalinta žemė, antrasis­Joktanas.

26 Joktano sūnūs: Almodadas, Šelefas, Hacarmavetas, Jerachas,

27 Hadoramas, Uzalas, Dikla,

28 Obalas, Abimaelis, Šeba,

29 Ofyras, Havila ir Jobabas; visi jie yra Joktano sūnūs.

30 Jie gyveno nuo Mešos iki Sefaro kalno rytuose.

31 Šitie yra Semo palikuonys pagal jų gimines, kalbas, šalis bei tautas.

32 Šitos yra Nojaus sūnų giminės pagal jų palikuonis ir tautas; iš jų atsirado tautos žemėje po tvano.

1130. Genesis 10

1. And these are the generations of the sons of Noah - Shem, Ham, and Japheth; and sons were born to them 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 the islands of the nations in their lands were spread abroad, every one according to his tongue, according to their families, as to 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 Sabteka. And the sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan.

8. And Cush begot Nimrod. He began to be a mighty man in the land.

9. He was mighty in hunting before Jehovah; therefore it used to be said, Like Nimrod, mighty in hunting before Jehovah.

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 went Asshur, and built Nineveh, and Rehoboth city, and Calah,

12. And Resen between Nineveh and Calah; this is that great city.

13. And Mizraim begot Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,

14. And Pathrusim, and Casluhim, from whom Pelishtim came forth, and Caphtorim.

15. And Canaan begot Sidon, his firstborn, and Heth.

16. And the Jebusites, and the Amorites, and the Girgashites.

17. And the Hivites, and the Arkites, and the Sinites.

18. And the Arvadites, and the Zemarites, and the Hamathites; and afterwards the families of the Canaanites were spread abroad.

19. And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon as you come towards Gerar, as far as Gaza, as you come towards Sodom and Gomorrah, and Admah and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha.

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

21. And to Shem also sons were born. 1 He was the father of all the sons of Eber; he was Japheth's elder brother.

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 begot Shelah, and Shelah begot Eber.

25. And to Eber were born two sons, the name of one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was 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 of these are the sons of Joktan.

30. And their dwelling was from Mesha, as you come towards Sephar, the mountain of the east.

31. These were the sons of Shem, according to their families, according to their tongues, in their lands, according to their nations.

32. These are the families of the sons of Noah, according to their generations in their nations. And from these the nations on the earth after the Flood were spread abroad.
