Now these are the generations of the sons of
Noah, Shem, Ham, and Ja'-pheth: and unto them were sons born after the flood. |
2 |
The sons of Ja'-pheth; Go'-mer, and Ma'-gog, and Ma'-dai, and Ja'-van, and Tu'-bal, and Me'-shech, and Ti'-ras. |
3 |
And the sons of Go'-mer; Ash-ke'-naz, and Ri'-phath, and To-gar'-mah. |
4 |
And the sons of Ja'-van; E-li'-shah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Do'-da-nim. |
5 |
By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his tongue, after
their families, in their nations. |
6 |
And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Miz'-ra-im, and Phut, and Canaan. |
7 |
And the sons of Cush; Se'-ba, and Hav'-i-lah, and Sab'-tah, and Ra'-a-mah, and Sab-te'-cha: and the sons of Ra'-a-mah; She'-ba, and De'-dan. |
8 |
And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth. |
9 |
He was a mighty hunter before the LORD: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before
the LORD. |
10 |
And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Er'-ech, and Ac'-cad, and Cal'-neh, in the land of Shi'-nar. |
11 |
Out of that land went forth Assh'-ur, and builded Nin'-e-veh, and the city Re'-ho-both, and Ca'-lah, |
12 |
And Re'-sen between Nin'-e-veh and Ca'-lah: the same is a great city. |
13 |
And Miz'-ra-im begat Lu'-dim, and An'-a-mim, and Le-ha'-bim, and Naph-tu'-him, |
14 |
And Path-ru'-sim, and Cas-lu'-him, (out of whom came Philistim,) and Caph'-to-rim. |
15 |
And Canaan begat Si'-don his first born, and Heth, |
16 |
And the Jeb'-u-site, and the Amorite, and the Gir'-gas-ite, |
17 |
And the Hi'-vite, and the Ar'-kite, and the Si'-nite, |
18 |
And the Ar'-va-dite, and the Zem'-a-rite, and the Ha'-math-ite: and afterward were the families
of the Canaanites spread abroad. |
19 |
And the border of the Canaanites was from Si'-don, as thou comest to Ge'-rar, unto Ga'-za; as thou
goest, unto Sodom, and Go-mor'-rah, and Ad'-mah, and Ze-bo'-im, even unto La'-sha. |
20 |
These are the sons of Ham, after their families,
after their tongues, in their countries, and in their nations. |
21 |
Unto Shem also, the father of all the children of E'-ber, the brother of Ja'-pheth the elder, even
to him were children born. |
22 |
The children of Shem; E'-lam, and Assh'-ur, and Ar-phax'-ad, and Lud, and Ar'-am. |
23 |
And the children of Ar'-am; Uz, and Hul, and Ge'-ther, and Mash. |
24 |
And Ar-phax'-ad begat Sa'-lah; and Sa'-lah begat E'-ber. |
25 |
And unto E'-ber were born two sons: the name of one was Pe'-leg; for in his days was the earth divided;
and his brother's name was Jok'-tan. |
26 |
And Jok'-tan begat Al-mo'-dad, and She'-leph, and Ha-zar-ma'-veth, and Je'-rah, |
27 |
And Ha-dor'-am, and U'-zal, and Dik'-lah, |
28 |
And O'-bal, and A-bim'-a-el, and She'-ba, |
29 |
And O'-phir, and Hav'-i-lah, and Jo'-bab: all these were the sons of Jok'-tan. |
30 |
And their dwelling was from Me'-sha, as thou goest unto Se'-phar a mount 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 by these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood. |
