10:1 Now these [are] the generations of the
sons of Noah, Sem, Cham, Japheth; and sons were born to them after the flood.
10:2 The sons of Japheth, Gamer, and Magog, and Madoi, and Jovan, and Elisa,

10:3 And the sons of Gamer, Aschanaz, and Riphath, and Thorgama.

10:6 And the sons of Cham, Chus, and Mesrain, Phud, and Chanaan.
10:7 And the sons of Chus, Saba, and Evila, and Sabatha, and Rhegma, and
Sabathaca. And the sons of Rhegma, Saba, and Dadan.
10:8 And Chus begot Nebrod: he began to be a giant upon the earth.
10:9 He was a giant hunter before Yehovah Elohim; therefore they say, As
Nebrod the giant hunter before Yehovah.
10:10 And the beginning of his kingdom was Babylon, and Orech, and Archad,
and Chalanne, in the land of Senaar.
10:11 Out of that land came Assur, and built Ninevi, and the city Rhooboth,
and Chalach,
10:12 and Dase between Ninevi and Chalach: this is the great city.
10:13 And Mesrain begot the Ludiim, and the Nephthalim, and the Enemetiim,
and the Labiim,

and the Gaphthoriim.

10:17 and the Evite, and the Arukite, and the Asennite,
10:18 and the Aradian, and the Samarean, and the Amathite; and after this
the tribes of the Canaanites were dispersed.
10:19 And the boundaries of the Canaanites were from Sidon till one comes to
Gerara and Gaza, till one comes to Sodom and Gomorrha, Adama and Seboim, as
far as Dasa.
10:20 There [were] the sons of Cham in their tribes according to their

10:23 And sons of Aram, Uz, and Ul, and Gater, and Mosoch.
10:24 And Arphaxad begot Cainan, and Cainan begot Sala. And Sala begot
Heber.
10:25 And to Heber were born two sons, the name of the one, Phaleg, because
in his days the earth was divided, and the name of his brother Jektan.
10:26 And Jektan begot Elmodad, and Saleth, and Sarmoth, and Jarach,
10:27 and Odorrha, and Aibel, and Decla,
10:28 Eval, and Abimael, and Saba,
10:29 and Uphir, and Evila, and Jobab, all these were the sons of Jektan.
10:30 And their dwelling was from Masse, till one comes to Saphera, a
mountain of the east.
10:31 These were the sons of Sem in their tribes, according to their
tongues, in their countries, and in their nations.
10:32 These are the tribes of the sons of Noah, according to their
generations, according to their nations: of them were the islands of the
Gentiles scattered over the earth after the flood. |
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 By these were the isles of the Gentiles 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 Phut, and Canaan.
10:7 And the sons of Cush; Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and
Sabtechah: and the sons of Raamah; Sheba, and Dedan.
10:8 And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.
10:9 He was a mighty hunter before Yehovah: wherefore it is said, Even as
Nimrod the mighty hunter before Yehovah.
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 the city
Rehoboth, and Calah,
10:12 And Resen between Nineveh and Calah: the same is a great city.
10:13 And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,
10:14 And Pathrusim, and Casluhim, (out of whom came Philistim,) and

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 Canaanites spread abroad.
10:19 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.
10:20 These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their tongues,
in their countries, and in their nations.
10:21 Unto Shem also, the father of all the children of Eber, the brother of
Japheth the elder, even to him were children born.
10:22 The children of Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and
Aram.
10:23 And the children of Aram; Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.
10:24 And Arphaxad begat Salah; and Salah begat Eber.
10:25 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.
10:26 And Joktan begat 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 unto Sephar a mount
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 by these were the nations divided in the earth after
the flood. |
