The Descendants of Noah

1 And these are the descendants of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth; and sons were born to them after the flood. 2 The sons of Japheth, Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras. 3 And the sons of Gomer, Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah. 4 And the sons of Javan, Elishah and Tarshish, Kittim and Dodanim. 5 From these the islands of the nations were divided in their lands, each according to his language, according to their families in their nations.

The Descendants of Ham

6 And the sons of Ham, Cush, and Mizraim, and Put, and Canaan. 7 And the sons of Cush, Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtekah. And the sons of Raamah, Sheba and Dedan. 8 And Cush fathered Nimrod: he began to be a powerful man in the earth. 9 He was a powerful man before the Lord: therefore it is said, Like Nimrod the man of might before the Lord. 10 And the beginning of his kingdom was Babylon, and Erech, and Akkad, and Calneh in the land of Babylon.⁠a 11 From that land he went to Assyria, and built Nineveh, and the city of Rehoboth, and Calah, 12 and Resen, between Nineveh and Calah, which was a great city. 13 And Mizraim fathered the Ludaee, and Anamaee, and Lehabaee, and Naphtuhaee, 14 and Pathrusaee, and Kasluchaee, from whom came the Philistines and Cappadocians. 15 And Canaan fathered Sidon his firstborn, and Heth, 16 and the Jebusites, and Amorites, and Girgashites, 17 and Hivites, and Arkaee, and Antasaee, 18 and Arvadaee, and Zemaraee, and Chamathaee: and afterwards the descendants of the Canaanites were scattered. 19 And the frontier of the Canaanites was from Sidon, toward Gerar and Gaza, toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha. 20 These are the sons of Ham, according to their families, to their languages, in their lands, in their peoples.

The Descendants of Shem

21 And children were also born to Shem, the father of all the sons of Eber and the brother of Japheth the Great: 22 the sons of Shem, Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram. 23 And the sons of Aram, Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash. 24 And Arphaxad fathered Shelah; and Shelah fathered Eber. 25 And to Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg: because in his day the earth was divided. And the name of his brother was Joktan. 26 And Joktan fathered Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah, 27 and Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah, 28 and Obal, and Avimael, and Sheba, 29 and Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab: all these are the sons of Joktan. 30 And their territory extended from Mesha toward Sephar, a mountain in the east. 31 These are the sons of Shem, according to their families, according to their languages, in their lands, in their peoples. 32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, by their generations, in their peoples: and from them the peoples spread across the earth after the flood.
