NHEBME - Genesis - 10

10:1  Now this is the history of the generations of the sons of Noah and of Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons were born to them after the flood.

10:2  The sons of Japheth: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.

10:3  The sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.

10:4  The sons of Javan: Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.

10:5  Of these were the islands of the nations divided in their lands, everyone after his language, after their families, in their nations.

10:6  The sons of Ham: Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.

10:7  The sons of Cush: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. The sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan.

10:8  Cush became the father of Nimrod. He began to be a mighty one in the earth.

10:9  He was a mighty hunter before the Lord. Therefore it is said, "Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the Lord."

10:10  The beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

10:11  Out of that land he went forth into Assyria, and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah,

10:12  and Resen between Nineveh and Calah (the same is the great city).

10:13  Mizraim became the father of Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim,

10:14  Pathrusim, Casluhim (which the Philistines descended from), and Caphtorim.

10:15  Canaan became the father of Sidon (his firstborn), Heth,

10:16  the Jebusite, the Amorite, the Girgashite,

10:17  the Hivite, the Arkite, the Sinite,

10:18  the Arvadite, the Zemarite, and the Hamathite. Afterward the families of the Canaanites were spread abroad.

10:19  The border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as you go toward Gerar, to Gaza; as you go toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, to Lasha.

10:20  These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their languages, in their lands, in their nations.

10:21  To Shem, the father of all the children of Eber, the elder brother of Japheth, to him also were children born.

10:22  The sons of Shem: Elam, Asshur, Arpachshad, Lud, and Aram.

10:23  The sons of Aram: Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.

10:24  Arpachshad became the father of Shelah. Shelah became the father of Eber.

10:25  To Eber were born two sons. The name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided. His brother's name was Joktan.

10:26  Joktan became the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah,

10:27  Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,

10:28  Obal, Abimael, Sheba,

10:29  Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All these were the sons of Joktan.

10:30  Their dwelling was from Mesha, as you go toward Sephar, the mountain of the east.

10:31  These are the sons of Shem, after their families, after their languages, in their lands, after their nations.

10:32  These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations. Of these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.
