Genesis 10 — WEBU

10Verse 1Now this is the history of the generations of the sons of Noah and of 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}Of these were the islands of the nations divided in their lands, everyone after his language, after their families, in 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 Sabteca. The sons of Raamah were: Sheba and Dedan.^{Verse 8}Cush became the father of Nimrod. He began to be a mighty one in the earth.^{Verse 9}He was a mighty hunter before the LORD. Therefore it is said, “like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the LORD”.^{Verse 10}The beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.^{Verse 11}Out of that land he went into Assyria, and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah,^{Verse 12}and Resen between Nineveh and the great city Calah.^{Verse 13}Mizraim became the father of Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim,^{Verse 14}Pathrusim, Casluhim (which the Philistines descended from), and Caphtorim.^{Verse 15}Canaan became the father of Sidon (his firstborn), Heth,^{Verse 16}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 families of the Canaanites were spread abroad.^{Verse 19}The border of the Canaanites was from Sidon—as you go toward Gerar—to Gaza—as you go toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim—to Lasha.^{Verse 20}These are the sons of Ham, after their families, according to their languages, in their lands and their nations.^{Verse 21}Children were also born to Shem (the elder brother of Japheth), the father of all the children of Eber.^{Verse 22}The sons of Shem were: Elam, Asshur, Arpachshad, Lud, and Aram.^{Verse 23}The sons of Aram were: Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.^{Verse 24}Arpachshad became the father of Shelah. Shelah became the father of Eber.^{Verse 25}To Eber were born 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 dwelling extended from Mesha, as you go toward Sephar, the mountain of the east.^{Verse 31}These are the sons of Shem, by their families, according to their languages, lands, and nations.^{Verse 32}These are the families of the sons of Noah, by their generations, according to their nations. The nations divided from these in the earth after the flood.
