[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] [38] [39] [40] [41] [42] [43] [44] [45] [46] [47] [48] [49] [50]

GEN 10:1 Now this is the history of the generations of the sons of Noah and of Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons were born to them after the flood.

GEN 10:2 The sons of Japheth: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.

GEN 10:3 The sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.

GEN 10:4 The sons of Javan: Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.

GEN 10:5 Of these were the isles of the nations divided in their lands, everyone after his language, after their families, in their nations.

GEN 10:6 The sons of Ham: Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.

GEN 10:7 The sons of Cush: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. The sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan.

GEN 10:8 Cush became the father of Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.

GEN 10:9 He was a mighty hunter before Yahweh. Therefore it is said, "Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before Yahweh."

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

GEN 10:11 Out of that land he went forth into Assyria, and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah,

GEN 10:12 and Resen between Nineveh and Calah (the same is the great city).

GEN 10:13 Mizraim became the father of Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim,

GEN 10:14 Pathrusim, Casluhim (which the Philistines descended from), and Caphtorim.

GEN 10:15 Canaan became the father of Sidon (his firstborn), Heth,

GEN 10:16 the Jebusite, the Amorite, the Girgashite,

GEN 10:17 the Hivite, the Arkite, the Sinite,

GEN 10:18 the Arvadite, the Zemarite, and the Hamathite. Afterward the families of the Canaanites were spread abroad.

GEN 10:19 The border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as you go toward Gerar, to Gaza; as you go toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, to Lasha.

GEN 10:20 These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their languages, in their lands, in their nations.

GEN 10:21 To Shem, the father of all the children of Eber, the elder brother of Japheth, to him also were children born.

GEN 10:22 The sons of Shem: Elam, Asshur, Arpachshad, Lud, and Aram.

GEN 10:23 The sons of Aram: Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.

GEN 10:24 Arpachshad became the father of Shelah. Shelah became the father of Eber.

GEN 10:25 To Eber were born two sons. The name of the one was Peleg, for in his days was the earth divided. His brother's name was Joktan.

GEN 10:26 Joktan became the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah,

GEN 10:27 Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,

GEN 10:28 Obal, Abimael, Sheba,

GEN 10:29 Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All these were the sons of Joktan.

GEN 10:30 Their dwelling was from Mesha, as you go toward Sephar, the mountain of the east.

GEN 10:31 These are the sons of Shem, after their families, after their languages, in their lands, after their nations.

GEN 10:32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations. Of these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.
