10 Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah: Shem, Ham and Japheth (to whom sons were born after the Flood).

The sons of Japheth were Gomer and Magog and Madai and Javan and Tubal and Meshech and Tiras.

And the sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz and Riphath and Togarmah.

Also the sons of Javan: Elishah and Tarshish, Kittim and Dodanim.

Between these the isles of the Gentiles were divided in their lands (every man after his tongue, after their families, in their nations).

Moreover, the sons of Ham were Cush and Mizraim and Put and Canaan.

And the sons of Cush: Seba and Havilah and Sabtah and Raamah and Sabtechah. Also, the sons of Raamah were Sheba and Dedan.

And Cush begat Nimrod, who began to be mighty on the Earth.

He was a mighty hunter before the LORD. Therefore, it is said, “…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 came Assyria, and built Nineveh and the city Rehoboth and Calah,

12 also Resen (between Nineveh and Calah). This is a great city.

13 And Mizraim begat Ludim and Anamim and Lehabim and Naphtuhim,

14 also Pathrusim and Casluhim (out of whom came the Philistines) and Caphtorims.

15 Also, Canaan begat Sidon his firstborn, and Heth

16 and Jebusi and Emori and Girgashi

17 and Hivi and Arki and Sini

18 and Arvadi and Zemari and Hamathi. And afterward, the families of the Canaanites were scattered.

19 Then, the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon (as you come to Gerar, until Gaza, and as you go to Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboiim) all the way to Lasha.

20 These are the sons of Ham (according to their families, according to their tongues, in their countries, in their nations).

21 Also, to Shem (the father of all the sons of Eber and elder brother of Japheth) were children born.

22 The sons of Shem were Elam and Asshur and Arphaxad and Lud and Aram.

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

24 Also, Arphaxad begat Salah; and Salah begat Eber.

25 Also, two sons were born to Eber. The name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the Earth divided. And his brother’s name was Joktan.

26 Then, 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 you go up to Sephar, a mount of the east).

31 These are the sons of Shem (according to their families, according to their tongues in their countries and nations).

32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, among their people. And out of these were the nations divided on the Earth, after the Flood.
