Genesis 10:5-20

5(From these the maritime peoples spread out into their territories by their clans within their nations, each with its own language.)

6The sons of Ham: Cush, Egypt, Put and Canaan.

7The sons of Cush: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah and Sabteka. The sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan.

8Cush was the father of Nimrod, who became a mighty warrior on the earth.

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

10The first centers of his kingdom were Babylon, Uruk, Akkad and Kalneh, in Shinar.

11From that land he went to Assyria, where he built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah

12and Resen, which is between Nineveh and Calah—which is the great city.

13Egypt was the father of the Ludites, Anamites, Lehabites, Naphtuhites,

14Pathrusites, Kasluhites (from whom the Philistines came) and Caphtorites.

15Canaan was the father of Sidon his firstborn, and of the Hittites,

16Jebusites, Amorites, Girgashites,

17Hivites, Arkites, Sinites,

18Arvadites, Zemarites and Hamathites. Later the Canaanite clans scattered

19and the borders of Canaan reached from Sidon toward Gerar as far as Gaza, and then toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboyim, as far as Lasha.

20These are the sons of Ham by their clans and languages, in their territories and nations.
