[1]Now these are the generations of the sons of Noe, Sem, Cham, Japheth; and sons were born to them after the flood.
[2]The sons of Japheth, Gamer, and Magog, and Madoi, and Jovan, and Elisa, and Thobel, and Mosoch, and Thiras.
[3]And the sons of Gamer, Aschanaz, and Riphath, and Thorgama.
[4]And the sons of Jovan, Elisa, and Tharseis, Cetians, Rhodians.
[5]From these were the islands of the Gentiles divided in their land, each according to his tongue, in their tribes and in their nations.
[6]And the sons of Cham, Chus, and Mesrain, Phud, and Chanaan.
[7]And the sons of Chus, Saba, and Evila, and Sabatha, and Rhegma, and Sabathaca. And the sons of Rhegma, Saba, and Dadan.
[8]And Chus begot Nebrod: he began to be a giant upon the earth.
[9]He was a giant hunter before the Lord God; therefore they say, As Nebrod the giant hunter before the Lord.
[10]And the beginning of his kingdom was Babylon, and Orech, and Archad, and Chalanne, in the land of Senaar.
[11]Out of that land came Assur, and built Ninevi, and the city Rhooboth, and Chalach,
[12]and Dase between Ninevi and Chalach: this is the great city.
[13]And Mesrain begot the Ludiim, and the Nephthalim, and the Enemetiim, and the Labiim,
[14]and the Patrosoniim, and the Chasmoniim (whence came forth Phylistiim) and the Gaphthoriim.
[15]And Chanaan begot Sidon his first-born, and the Chettite,
[16]and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgashite,
[17]and the Evite, and the Arukite, and the Asennite,
[18]and the Aradian, and the Samarean, and the Amathite; and after this the tribes of the Chananites were dispersed.
[19]And the boundaries of the Chananites were from Sidon till one comes to Gerara and Gaza, till one comes to Sodom and Gomorrha, Adama and Seboim, as far as Dasa.
[20]There were the sons of Cham in their tribes according to their tongues, in their countries, and in their nations.
[21]And to Sem himself also were children born, the father of all the sons of Heber, the brother of Japheth the elder.
[22]Sons of Sem, Elam, and Assur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram, and Cainan.
[23]And sons of Aram, Uz, and Ul, and Gater, and Mosoch.
[24]And Arphaxad begot Cainan, and Cainan begot Sala. And Sala begot Heber.
[25]And to Heber were born two sons, the name of the one, Phaleg, because in his days the earth was divided, and the name of his brother Jektan.
[26]And Jektan begot Elmodad, and Saleth, and Sarmoth, and Jarach,
[27]and Odorrha, and Aibel, and Decla,
[28]Eval, and Abimael, and Saba,
[29]and Uphir, and Evila, and Jobab, all these were the sons of Jektan.
[30]And their dwelling was from Masse, till one comes to Saphera, a mountain of the east.
[31]These were the sons of Sem in their tribes, according to their tongues, in their countries, and in their nations.
[32]These are the tribes of the sons of Noe, according to their generations, according to their nations: of them were the islands of the Gentiles scattered over the earth after the flood.
