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 RiphathH7384, and TogarmahH8425.
4And the sonsH1121 of JavanH3120; ElishahH473, and TarshishH8659, KittimH3794, and DodanimH1721.
5Of theseH428 were the islesH339 of the nationsH1471 dividedH6504 in their landsH776, everyH376 one afterH776 his tongueH3956; afterH776 their familiesH4940, in their nationsH1471.
6And the sonsH1121 of HamH2526; CushH3568, and MizraimH4714, and PutH6316, and CanaanH3667.
7And the sonsH1121 of CushH3568; SebaH5434, and HavilahH2341, and SabtahH5454, and RaamahH7484, and SabtecaH5455: and the sonsH1121 of RaamahH7484; ShebaH7614, and DedanH1719.
8And CushH3568 begat NimrodH5248: he beganH2490 to be a mightyH1368 one in the earthH776.
9He was a mightyH1368 hunterH6718 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068: wherefore it is saidH559, Like NimrodH5248 a mightyH1368 hunterH6718 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.
10And the beginningH7225 of his kingdomH4467 was BabelH894, and ErechH751, and AccadH390, and CalnehH3641, in the landH776 of ShinarH8152.
11OutH3318 of that landH776 he wentH3318 forthH3318 intoH776 AssyriaH804, and builded NinevehH5210, and Rehoboth-IrH7344, and CalahH3625,
12and ResenH7449 betweenH996 NinevehH5210 and CalahH3625 (the sameH1931 is the greatH1419 cityH5892).
13And MizraimH4714 begat LudimH3866, and AnamimH6047, and LehabimH3853, and NaphtuhimH5320,
14and PathrusimH6625, and CasluhimH3695 (whence wentH3318 forthH3318 the PhilistinesH6430), and CaphtorimH3732.
15And CanaanH3667 begat Zidon his firstbornH1060, 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 afterwardH310 were the familiesH4940 of the CanaaniteH3669 spreadH6327 abroad.
19And the borderH1366 of the CanaaniteH3669 was from Zidon, as thou goest towardH935 GerarH1642, unto GazaH5804; as thou goest towardH935 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017 and AdmahH126 and ZeboiimH6636, unto LashaH3962.
20TheseH428 are the sonsH1121 of HamH2526, afterH776 their familiesH4940, afterH776 their tonguesH3956, in their landsH776, in their nationsH1471.
