10 | Genesis |
|
1 |
These are the descendants of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham and Japheth, the sons born to them after the flood. | Generation - Noah. Gn.10.1-32 - 1Chr.1.5-23 |
2 |
The sons of Japheth: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan , Tubal, Meshech and Tiras. | |
3 |
The sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, Riphath and Togarmah. | |
4 |
The sons of Javan: Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim and Rodanim. | |
5 |
From these the peoples of the coasts and islands separated into their own countries, each with their own language, family by family, nation by nation. | |
6 |
The sons of Ham: Cush, Mizraim , Put and Canaan. | |
7 |
The sons of Cush: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah and Sabtecha. The sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan. | |
8 |
Cush was the father of Nimrod, who began to show himself a man of might on earth; | |
9 |
and he was a mighty hunter before the LORD, as the saying goes, 'Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the LORD.' | |
10 |
His kingdom in the beginning consisted of Babel, Erech, and Accad, all of them in the land of Shinar. | |
11 |
From that land he migrated to Asshur and built Nineveh, Rehoboth-Ir, Calah, and | |
12 |
Resen, a great city between Nineveh and Calah. | |
13 |
From Mizraim sprang the Lydians, Anamites, Lehabites, Naphtuhites, | |
14 |
Pathrusites, Casluhites, and the Caphtorites, from whom the Philistines were descended. | |
15 |
Canaan was the father of Sidon, who was his eldest son, and Heth , | |
16 |
the Jebusites, the Amorites, the Girgashites, | |
17 |
the Hivites, the Arkites, the Sinites, | |
18 |
the Arvadites, the Zemarites, and the Hamathites. Later the Canaanites spread, | |
19 |
and then the Canaanite border ran from Sidon towards Gerar all the way to Gaza; then all the way to Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboyim as far as Lasha. | |
20 |
These were the sons of Ham, by families and languages with their countries and nations. | |
21 |
Sons were born also to Shem, elder brother of Japheth, the ancestor of all the sons of Eber. | |
22 |
The sons of Shem: Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud and Aram. | |
23 |
The sons of Aram: Uz, Hul, Gether and Mash. | |
24 |
Arphaxad was the father of Shelah, and Shelah the father of Eber. | |
25 |
Eber had two sons: one was named Peleg , because in his time the earth was divided; and his brother's name was Joktan. | |
26 |
Joktan was the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmoth, Jerah, | |
27 |
Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah, | |
28 |
Obal, Abimael, Sheba, | |
29 |
Ophir, Havilah and Jobab. All these were sons of Joktan. | |
30 |
They lived in the eastern hill-country, from Mesha all the way to Sephar. | |
31 |
These were the sons of Shem, by families and languages with their countries and nations. | |
32 |
These were the families of the sons of Noah according to their genealogies, nation by nation; and from them came the separate nations on earth after the flood. | |
