Genesis 10:25-32

25 To `Ever were born two sons. The name of the one was Peleg, for in his days was the eretz divided. His brother's name was Yoktan.

26 Yoktan became the father of Almodad, Shelef, Hatzarmavat, Yerach,

27 Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,

28 `Oval, Avima'el, Sheva,

29 Ofir, Havilah, and Yovav. All these were the sons of Yoktan.

30 Their dwelling was from Mesha, as you go toward Sefar, the mountain of the east.

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

32 These are the families of the sons of Noach, after their generations, in their nations. Of these were the nations divided in the eretz after the flood.
