Genesis 10:2-20
2The sonsH1121 of JaphethH3315: GomerH1586, and MagogH4031, and MadaiH4074, and JavanH3120, and TubalH8422, and MeshechH4902, and TirasH8494. 3And the sonsH1121 of GomerH1586: AshkenazH813, and Riphath, and TogarmahH8425. 4And the sonsH1121 of JavanH3120: ElishahH473, and TarshishH8659, KittimH3794, and Dodanim. 5Of these were the isles of the nationsH1471 divided in their landsH776, every oneH376 after his tongueH3956, after their familiesH4940, in their nationsH1471.
6And the sonsH1121 of HamH2526: CushH3568, and Mizraim, and PutH6316, and CanaanH3667. 7And the sonsH1121 of CushH3568: SebaH5434, and HavilahH2341, and Sabtah, and RaamahH7484, and SabtecaH5455; and the sonsH1121 of RaamahH7484: ShebaH7614, and DedanH1719. 8And CushH3568 begat NimrodH5248: he beganH2490 to beH1961 a mightyH1368 one in the earthH776. 9He wasH1961 a mightyH1368 hunter before Jehovah: wherefore it is saidH559, Like NimrodH5248 a mightyH1368 hunter before Jehovah. 10And the beginning of his kingdomH4467 wasH1961 Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and CalnehH3641, in the landH776 of ShinarH8152. 11Out of that landH776 he wentH3318 forthH3318 into AssyriaH804, and builded NinevehH5210, and Rehoboth-Ir, and CalahH3625, 12and Resen between NinevehH5210 and CalahH3625 (the same is the greatH1419 cityH5892). 13And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim, 14and Pathrusim, and Casluhim (whence wentH3318 forthH3318 the PhilistinesH6430), and Caphtorim.
15And CanaanH3667 begat SidonH6721 his first-born, and HethH2845, 16and the JebusiteH2983, and the AmoriteH567, and the GirgashiteH1622, 17and the HiviteH2340, and the ArkiteH6208, and the SiniteH5513, 18and the ArvaditeH721, and the ZemariteH6786, and the HamathiteH2577: and afterward were the familiesH4940 of the CanaaniteH3669 spread abroad. 19And the borderH1366 of the CanaaniteH3669 wasH1961 from SidonH6721, as thou goest toward GerarH1642, unto GazaH5804; as thou goest toward SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017 and AdmahH126 and ZeboiimH6636, unto Lasha. 20These are the sonsH1121 of HamH2526, after their familiesH4940, after their tonguesH3956, in their landsH776, in their nationsH1471.
