Genesis

Chapter 10

New King James Version

1Now this [is] the genealogy of the sons of Noah: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And sons were born to them after the flood. 2The sons of Japheth [were] Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras. 3The sons of Gomer [were] Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah. 4The sons of Javan [were] Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim. 5From these the coastland [peoples] of the Gentiles were separated into their lands, everyone according to his language, according to their families, into their nations. 6The sons of Ham [were] Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan. 7The sons of Cush [were] Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabtechah; and the sons of Raamah [were] Sheba and Dedan. 8Cush begot Nimrod; he began to be a mighty one on the earth. 9He was a mighty hunter before the LORD; therefore it is said, "Like Nimrod the mighty hunter before the LORD." 10And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar. 11From that land he went to Assyria and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah, 12and Resen between Nineveh and Calah (that [is] the principal city). 13Mizraim begot Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim, 14Pathrusim, and Casluhim (from whom came the Philistines and Caphtorim). 15Canaan begot Sidon his firstborn, and Heth; 16the Jebusite, the Amorite, and the Girgashite; 17the Hivite, the Arkite, and the Sinite; 18the Arvadite, the Zemarite, and the Hamathite. Afterward the families of the Canaanites were dispersed. 19And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon as you go toward Gerar, as far as Gaza; then as you go toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha. 20These [were] the sons of Ham, according to their families, according to their languages, in their lands [and] in their nations. 21And [children] were born also to Shem, the father of all the children of Eber, the brother of Japheth the elder. 22The sons of Shem [were] Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram. 23The sons of Aram [were] Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash. 24Arphaxad begot Salah, and Salah begot Eber. 25To Eber were born two sons: the name of one [was] Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided; and his brother's name [was] Joktan. 26Joktan begot Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah, 27Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah, 28Obal, Abimael, Sheba, 29Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All these [were] the sons of Joktan. 30And their dwelling place was from Mesha as you go toward Sephar, the mountain of the east. 31These [were] the sons of Shem, according to their families, according to their languages, in their lands, according to their nations. 32These [were] the families of the sons of Noah, according to their generations, in their nations; and from these the nations were divided on the earth after the flood.
