Genesis 10:11-22

11From that land he went forth 1into Assyria, and built Nineveh and Rehoboth-Ir and Calah, 12and Resen between Nineveh and Calah; that is the great city. 13Mizraim 2became the father of 3Ludim and Anamim and Lehabim and Naphtuhim 14and 4Pathrusim and Casluhim (from which came the Philistines) and Caphtorim.

15Canaan 5became the father of 6Sidon, his firstborn, and 7Heth 16and 8the Jebusite and the Amorite and the Girgashite 17and the Hivite and the Arkite and the Sinite 18and the Arvadite and the Zemarite and the Hamathite; and afterward the families of the Canaanite were spread abroad. 199The territory of the Canaanite 10extended from Sidon as you go toward Gerar, as far as Gaza; as you go toward 11Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha. 20These are the sons of Ham, according to their families, according to their languages, by their lands, by their nations.

21Also to Shem, the father of all the children of Eber, and the 12older brother of Japheth, children were born. 2213The sons of Shem were 14Elam and Asshur and 15Arpachshad and 16Lud and Aram.
