10:6 The sons of Ham were Cush, 17 Mizraim, 18 Put, 19 and Canaan. 20 10:7 The sons of Cush were Seba, 21 Havilah, 22 Sabtah, 23 Raamah, 24 and Sabteca. 25 The sons of Raamah were Sheba 26 and Dedan. 27
10:8 Cush was the father of 28 Nimrod; he began to be a valiant warrior on the earth. 10:9 He was a mighty hunter 29 before the Lord. 30 (That is why it is said, “Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the Lord.”) 10:10 The primary regions 31 of his kingdom were Babel, 32 Erech, 33 Akkad, 34 and Calneh 35 in the land of Shinar. 36 10:11 From that land he went 37 to Assyria, 38 where he built Nineveh, 39 Rehoboth-Ir, 40 Calah, 41 10:12 and Resen, which is between Nineveh and the great city Calah. 42

10:15 Canaan was the father of 53 Sidon his firstborn, 54 Heth, 55 10:16 the Jebusites, 56 Amorites, 57 Girgashites, 58 10:17 Hivites, 59 Arkites, 60 Sinites, 61 10:18 Arvadites, 62 Zemarites, 63 and Hamathites. 64 Eventually the families of the Canaanites were scattered 10:19 and the borders of Canaan extended 65 from Sidon 66 all the way to 67 Gerar as far as Gaza, and all the way to 68 Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha. 10:20 These are the sons of Ham, according to their families, according to their languages, by their lands, and by their nations.
10:21 And sons were also born 69 to Shem (the older brother of Japheth), 70 the father of all the sons of Eber.
10:22 The sons of Shem were Elam, 71 Asshur, 72 Arphaxad, 73 Lud, 74 and Aram. 75 10:23 The sons of Aram were Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash. 76 10:24 Arphaxad was the father of 77 Shelah, 78 and Shelah was the father of Eber. 79 10:25 Two sons were born to Eber: One was named Peleg because in his days the earth was divided, 80 and his brother’s name was Joktan. 10:26 Joktan was the father of 81 Almodad, 82 Sheleph, 83 Hazarmaveth, 84 Jerah, 85 10:27 Hadoram, Uzal, 86 Diklah, 87 10:28 Obal, 88 Abimael, 89 Sheba, 90 10:29 Ophir, 91 Havilah, 92 and Jobab. All these were sons of Joktan. 10:30 Their dwelling place was from Mesha all the way to 93 Sephar in the eastern hills. 10:31 These are the sons of Shem according to their families, according to their languages, by their lands, and according to their nations.
10:32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, according to their genealogies, by their nations, and from these the nations spread 94 over the earth after the flood.
