1 These are the descendants of Noah's sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, to whom children were born after the flood.

2 Japheth's sons: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.

3 Gomer's sons: Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.

4 Javan's sons: Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Rodanim.

6 Ham's sons: Cush, Egypt, Put, and Canaan.

7 Cush's sons: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. Raamah's sons: Sheba and Dedan.

8 Cush fathered Nimrod, the first great warrior on earth.

9 The LORD saw him as a great hunter, and so it is said, "Like Nimrod, whom the LORD saw as a great hunter."

10 The most important cities in his kingdom were Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh in the land of Shinar.

11 Asshur left that land and built Nineveh, Rehoboth City, Calah,

12 and Resen, the great city between Nineveh and Calah.

16 the Jebusites, the Amorites, the Girgashites,

17 the Hivites, the Arkites, the Sinites,

18 the Arvadites, the Zemarites, and the Hamathites. After this the Canaanite clans were dispersed.

19 The Canaanite boundary extends from Sidon by way of Gerar to Gaza and by way of Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim to Lasha.

20 These are Ham's sons according to their clans, their languages, their lands, and their nations.

21 Children were also born to Shem the father of all Eber's children and Japheth's older brother.

23 Aram's sons: Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.

24 Arpachshad fathered Shelah, and Shelah fathered Eber.

25 To Eber were born two sons: The first was named Peleg, because during his lifetime the earth was divided. His brother's name was Joktan.

26 Joktan fathered Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah,

27 Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,

28 Obal, Abimael, Sheba,

29 Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All of these were Joktan's sons.

30 Their settlements extended from Mesha by way of Sephar, the eastern mountains.

31 These are Shem's sons according to their clans, their languages, their lands, and their nations.

32 These are the clans of Noah's sons according to their generations and their nations. From them the earth's nations branched out after the flood.

1 This is the account of Shem, Ham and Japheth, Noah’s sons, who themselves had sons after the flood.

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

7 The sons of Cush: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah and Sabteka. The sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan.

8 Cush was the father of Nimrod, who became a mighty warrior on the earth.

9 He was a mighty hunter before the LORD; that is why it is said, “Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the LORD.”

10 The first centers of his kingdom were Babylon, Uruk, Akkad and Kalneh, in Shinar.

11 From that land he went to Assyria, where he built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah

12 and Resen, which is between Nineveh and Calah—which is the great city.

13 Egypt was the father of the Ludites, Anamites, Lehabites, Naphtuhites,

14 Pathrusites, Kasluhites (from whom the Philistines came) and Caphtorites.

16 Jebusites, Amorites, Girgashites,

17 Hivites, Arkites, Sinites,

18 Arvadites, Zemarites and Hamathites. Later the Canaanite clans scattered

19 and the borders of Canaan reached from Sidon toward Gerar as far as Gaza, and then toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboyim, as far as Lasha.

20 These are the sons of Ham by their clans and languages, in their territories and nations.

27 Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,

28 Obal, Abimael, Sheba,

29 Ophir, Havilah and Jobab. All these were sons of Joktan.
