Genesis 10 — ULB

10Verse 1These were the descendants of the sons of Noah, that is, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons were born to them after the flood.^{Verse 2}The sons of Japheth were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.^{Verse 3}The sons of Gomer were Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.^{Verse 4}The sons of Javan were Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.^{Verse 5}From these the coastland peoples separated and went into their lands, every one with its own language, according to their clans, by their nations.^{Verse 6}The sons of Ham were Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.^{Verse 7}The sons of Cush were Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteka. The sons of Raamah were Sheba and Dedan.^{Verse 8}Cush became the father of Nimrod, who was the first conqueror on the earth.^{Verse 9}He was a mighty hunter before Yahweh. That is why it is said, “Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before Yahweh.”^{Verse 10}The first centers of his kingdom were Babel, Erech, Akkad, and Kalneh, in the land of Shinar.^{Verse 11}Out of that land he went to Assyria and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah,^{Verse 12}and Resen, which was between Nineveh and Calah. It was a large city.^{Verse 13}Mizraim became the father of the Ludites, the Anamites, the Lehabites, the Naphtuhites,^{Verse 14}the Pathrusites, the Kasluhites (from whom the Philistines came), and the Caphtorites.^{Verse 15}Canaan became the father of Sidon, his firstborn, and of Heth,^{Verse 16}also of the Jebusites, the Amorites, the Girgashites,^{Verse 17}the Hivites, the Arkites, the Sinites,^{Verse 18}the Arvadites, the Zemarites, and the Hamathites. Afterward the clans of the Canaanites spread out.^{Verse 19}The border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, in the direction of Gerar, as far as Gaza, and as one goes toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboyim, as far as Lasha.^{Verse 20}These were the sons of Ham, by their clans, by their languages, in their lands, and in their nations.^{Verse 21}Sons also were born to Shem, the older brother of Japheth. Shem was also the ancestor of all the people of Eber.^{Verse 22}The sons of Shem were Elam, Ashur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram.^{Verse 23}The sons of Aram were Uz, Hul, Gether, and Meshech.^{Verse 24}Arphaxad became the father of Shelah, and Shelah became the father of Eber.^{Verse 25}Eber had two sons. The name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided. His brother's name was Joktan.^{Verse 26}Joktan became the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah,^{Verse 27}Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,^{Verse 28}Obal, Abimael, Sheba,^{Verse 29}Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All these were the sons of Joktan.^{Verse 30}Their territory was from Mesha, all the way to Sephar, the mountain of the east.^{Verse 31}These were the sons of Shem, according to their clans and their languages, in their lands, according to their nations.^{Verse 32}These were the clans of the sons of Noah, according to their genealogies, by their nations. From these the nations separated and went over the earth after the flood.
