| 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 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, 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 Sabtechah: 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 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 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 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 first born, 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, 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. |
| 23 | And the children of Aram; Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash. |
| 24 | And Arphaxad begat 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, 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.
