Genesis 10:7-10

7The sons of Cush were 1Seba and Havilah and Sabtah and 2Raamah and Sabteca; and the sons of Raamah were 3Sheba and 4Dedan.

8Now Cush 5became the father of Nimrod; he 6became a mighty one on the earth.

9He was a mighty hunter before the Lord; therefore it is said, “Like Nimrod a mighty hunter before the Lord.”

10The beginning of his kingdom was 78Babel and Erech and Accad and Calneh, in the land of 9Shinar.
