Genesis - Chapter 010

10:1
Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah: Shem, Ham, and Japheth; and unto them were sons born after the flood.

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

10:3
And the sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.

10:4
And the sons of Javan: Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.

10:5
Of these were the isles of the nations divided in their lands, every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations.

10:6
And the sons of Ham: Cush, and Mizraim, and Put, and Canaan.

10:7
And the sons of Cush: Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabteca; and the sons of Raamah: Sheba, and Dedan.

10:8
And Cush begot Nimrod; he began to be a mighty one in the earth.

10:9
He was a mighty hunter before the Lord; wherefore it is said: 'Like Nimrod a mighty hunter before the Lord.'

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

10:11
Out of that land went forth Asshur, and builded Nineveh, and Rehoboth-ir, and Calah,

10:12
and Resen between Nineveh and Calah--the same is the great city.

10:13
And Mizraim begot Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,

10:14
and Pathrusim, and Casluhim--whence went forth the Philistines--and Caphtorim.

10:15
And Canaan begot Zidon his firstborn, and Heth;

10:16
and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgashite;

10:17
and the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite;

10:18
and the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite; and afterward were the families of the Canaanite spread abroad.

10:19
And the border of the Canaanite was from Zidon, as thou goest toward Gerar, unto Gaza; as thou goest toward Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboiim, unto Lasha.

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

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

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

10:23
And the sons of Aram: Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.

10:24
And Arpachshad begot Shelah; and Shelah begot Eber.

10:25
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.

10:26
And Joktan begot Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah;

10:27
and Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah;

10:28
and Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba;

10:29
and Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab; all these were the sons of Joktan.

10:30
And their dwelling was from Mesha, as thou goest toward Sephar, unto the mountain of the east.

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

10:32
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.
