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 Elisa, 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 By these
were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his
tongue, after their families [tribes],
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
begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one, a
giant in the earth.
9 He was a
mighty, giant hunter before the LORD God: wherefore it is said, Even as
Nimrod the mighty hunter before the LORD.
10 And the
beginning of his kingdom was Babel [Babylon],
and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
11 Out of
that land went forth Asshur, and builded Nineveh, and the city Rehoboth, and
Calah,
12 And Resen
between Nineveh and Calah: the same is a [the]
great city.
13 And
Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,
14 And
Pathrusim, and Casluhim, (out of whom came Philistim,) and Caphtorim.
15 And
Canaan begat Sidon his firstborn, and Heth,
16 And the
Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgasite,
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 Canaanites spread abroad.
19 And the
border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as thou comest to Gerar, unto Gaza; as
thou goest, unto Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, even unto Lasha.
20 These are
the sons of Ham, after their families [tribes],
after their tongues, in their countries, and in their nations.
21 Unto Shem
also, the father of all the children of Eber, the brother of Japheth the elder,
even to him were children born.
22 The
children of Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram, and Cainan.
23 And the
children of Aram; Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.
24 And
Arphaxad begat Cainan, and Cainan begot Salah;
and Salah begat Eber.
25 And unto
Eber were born two sons: the name of 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 unto Sephar a mount of the east.
31 These are
the sons of Shem, after their families [tribes],
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 by these were the islands of the
Gentiles scattered over the Earth, the nations divided in the earth after
the flood.
