¹ And these [are] the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and sons are born to them after the flood.² Sons of Japheth [are] Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.³ And sons of Gomer [are] Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.⁴ And sons of Javan [are] Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.⁵ By these the islands of the nations have been parted in their lands, each by his tongue, by their families, in their nations.

⁶ And sons of Ham [are] Cush, and Mitzraim, and Phut, and Canaan.⁷ And sons of Cush [are] Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtechah; and sons of Raamah [are] Sheba and Dedan.⁸ And Cush has begotten Nimrod;⁹ he has begun to be a hero in the land; he has been a hero in hunting before YHWH; therefore it is said, "As Nimrod the hero [in] hunting before YHWH."¹⁰ And the first part of his kingdom is Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar;¹¹ from that land he has gone out to Asshur, and builds Nineveh, even the broad places of the city, and Calah,¹² and Resen, between Nineveh and Calah; it [is] the great city.¹³ And Mitzraim has begotten the Ludim, and the Anamim, and the Lehabim, and the Naphtuhim,¹⁴ and the Pathrusim, and the Casluhim (from where have come out Philistim), and the Caphtorim.

¹⁵ And Canaan has begotten Sidon his firstborn, and Heth,¹⁶ and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgashite,¹⁷ and the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite,¹⁸ and the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite; and afterward the families of the Canaanite have been scattered.¹⁹ And the border of the Canaanite is from Sidon, [in] your coming toward Gerar, to Gaza; [in] your coming toward Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, to Lasha.²⁰ These [are] sons of Ham, by their families, by their tongues, in their lands, in their nations.

²¹ As for Shem, father of all sons of Eber, the older brother of Japheth, he has also begotten.²² Sons of Shem [are] Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.²³ And sons of Aram [are] Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.²⁴ And Arphaxad has begotten Salah, and Salah has begotten Eber.²⁵ And two sons have been born to Eber; the name of the first [is] Peleg (for in his days the earth has been divided), and his brother's name [is] Joktan.²⁶ And Joktan has begotten Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah,²⁷ and Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah,²⁸ and Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba,²⁹ and Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab; all these [are] sons of Joktan;³⁰ and their dwelling is from Mesha, [in] your coming toward Sephar, a mountain of the east.³¹ These [are] sons of Shem, by their families, by their tongues, in their lands, by their nations.³² These [are] families of the sons of Noah, by their generations, in their nations, and by these the nations have been parted in the earth after the flood.
