| Chapter 10 |
1 |
Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, [namely], of 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 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 |
Of these were the isles of the nations divided in their lands, every one after his tongue, after their families, in 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 Sabteca; and the sons of Raamah: Sheba, and Dedan. -
|
8 |
And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth. -
|
9 |
He was a mighty hunter before Jehovah: wherefore it is said, Like Nimrod a 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 |
Out of that land he went forth into Assyria, and builded Nineveh, and Rehoboth-ir, and Calah, -
|
12 |
and Resen between Nineveh and Calah (the same is the great city). -
|
13 |
And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim, -
|
14 |
and Pathrusim, and Casluhim (whence went forth the Philistines), and Caphtorim. -
|
15 |
And Canaan begat 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 afterward were the families of the Canaanite spread abroad. -
|
19 |
And 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. -
|
20 |
These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, in their nations. -
|
21 |
And unto 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, and Asshur, and Arpachshad, and Lud, and Aram. -
|
23 |
And the sons of Aram: Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash. -
|
24 |
And Arpachshad begat Shelah; and Shelah begat Eber. -
|
25 |
And 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. -
|
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 toward Sephar, the mountain of the east. -
|
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 of these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood. -
