Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah ,

And the sons of Gomer :
Ashkenaz ,

every man according to his tongue ,
according to their families ,
in their nations .

*
And the sons of Cush :
Seba ,

And the sons of Raamah :
Sheba ,

*
And Cush begot Nimrod .
He began to be a mighty man on the earth .
*
He was a mighty hunter before LORD .
Therefore it is said ,
Like Nimrod a mighty hunter before LORD .
*
And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel ,
and Erech ,
and Accad ,
and Calneh ,
in the land of Shinar .
*
He went forth out of that land into Assyria ,
and built Nineveh ,

the same is the great city ).

and the Girgashite ,
*
and the Hivite ,
and the Arkite ,
and the Sinite ,
*
and the Arvadite ,
and the Zemarite ,
and the Hamathite .
And afterward the families of the Canaanite were spread abroad .
*
And the border of the Canaanite was from Sidon ,
as thou go toward Gerar ,
to Gaza ,
as thou go toward Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboiim ,
to Lasha .
*
These are the sons of Ham ,
according to their families ,
according to their tongues ,
in their lands ,
in their nations .
*
And to Shem ,
the father of all the sons of Eber ,
the elder brother of Japheth ,

Elam ,
and Asshur ,
and Arphaxad ,
and Lud ,
and Aram .
*
And the sons of Aram :
Uz ,
and Hul ,
and Gether ,
and Mash .
*
And Arphaxad begot Shelah ,
and Shelah begot Eber .
*
And to Eber were born two sons .
The name of the one was Peleg .
For in his days the earth was divided .
And his brother '
s name was Joktan .
*
And Joktan begot Almodad ,
and Sheleph ,
and Hazarmaveth ,

And their dwelling was from Mesha ,
as thou go toward Sephar ,
the mountain of the east .
*
These are the sons of Shem ,
according to their families ,
according to their tongues ,
in their lands ,
according to their nations .
*
These are 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 .
