10:1  Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, namely , of Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were sons born after the flood.
10:2  The sons of Japheth: Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.
10:3  And the sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.
10:4  And the sons of Javan: Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.
10:5  Of these were the isles of the nations divided in their lands, every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations.
10:6  And the sons of Ham: Cush, and Mizraim, and Put, and Canaan.
10:7  And the sons of Cush: Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabteca; and the sons of Raamah: Sheba, and Dedan.
10:8  And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.
10:9  He was a mighty hunter before Jehovah: wherefore it is said, Like Nimrod a mighty hunter before Jehovah.
10:10  And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
10:11  Out of that land he went forth into Assyria, and builded Nineveh, and Rehoboth-ir, and Calah,
10:12  and Resen between Nineveh and Calah (the same is the great city).
10:13  And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,
10:14  and Pathrusim, and Casluhim (whence went forth the Philistines), and Caphtorim.
10:15  And Canaan begat Sidon his first-born, and Heth,
10:16  and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgashite,
10:17  and the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite,
10:18  and the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite: and afterward were the families of the Canaanite spread abroad.
10:19  And the border of the Canaanite was from Sidon, as thou goest toward Gerar, unto Gaza; as thou goest toward Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboiim, unto Lasha.
10:20  These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, in their nations.
10:21  And unto 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, and Asshur, and Arpachshad, and Lud, and Aram.
10:23  And the sons of Aram: Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.
10:24  And Arpachshad begat Shelah; and Shelah begat Eber.
10:25  And unto Eber were born two sons: The name of the one was Peleg. For in his days was the earth divided. And his brother's name was Joktan.
10:26  And Joktan begat Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah,
10:27  and Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah,
10:28  and Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba,
10:29  and Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab: all these were the sons of Joktan.
10:30  And their dwelling was from Mesha, as thou goest toward Sephar, the mountain of the east.
10:31  These are the sons of Shem, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, after their nations.
10:32  These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations: and of these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.
