Genesis 11:8-19

8So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.

9Therefore was the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.

10These are the generations of Shem. Shem was an hundred years old, and begat Arpachshad two years after the flood:

11and Shem lived after he begat Arpachshad five hundred years, and begat sons and daughters.

13and Arpachshad lived after he begat Shelah four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.

14And Shelah lived thirty years, and begat Eber:

15and Shelah lived after he begat Eber four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.
