تكوين 10

١ 1 هَذَا سِجِلُّ مَوَالِيدِ سَامٍ وَحَامٍ وَيَافَثَ أَبْنَاءِ نُوحٍ، وَمَنْ وُلِدَ لَهُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِ الطُّوفَانِ.

Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, [namely], of Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were sons born after the flood.

٢ 2 أَبْنَاءُ يَافَثَ: جُومَرُ وَمَاجُوجُ وَمَادَايُ وَيَاوَانُ وَتُوبَالُ وَمَاشَكُ وَتِيرَاسُ.

The sons of Japheth: Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.

٣ 3 وَأَبْنَاءُ جُومَرَ: أَشْكَنَازُ وَرِيفَاثُ وَتُوجَرْمَةُ.

And the sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.

٤ 4 وَأَبْنَاءُ يَاوَانَ: أَلِيشَةُ وَتَرْشِيشُ وَكِتِّيمُ وَدُودَانِيمُ.

And the sons of Javan: Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.

٥ 5 وَتَفَرَّعَ مِنْ هَؤُلاءِ سُكَّانُ الْجَزَائِرِ وَتَفَرَّقُوا فِي مَنَاطِقِهِمْ حَسَبَ قَبَائِلِهِمْ وَأُمَمِهِمْ، وَلُغَاتِهِمْ.

Of these were the isles of the nations divided in their lands, every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations.

٦ 6 وَأَبْنَاءُ حَامٍ: كُوشٌ وَمِصْرَايِمُ وَفُوطُ وَكَنْعَانُ.

And the sons of Ham: Cush, and Mizraim, and Put, and Canaan.

٧ 7 وَأَبْنَاءُ كُوشٍ: سَبَا، وَحَوِيلَةُ، وَسَبْتَةُ وَرَعْمَةُ وَسَبْتَكَا. وَأَبْنَاءُ رَعْمَةَ: سَبَا وَدَدَانُ.

And the sons of Cush: Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabteca; and the sons of Raamah: Sheba, and Dedan.

٨ 8 وَأَنْجَبَ كُوْشُ نِمْرُودَ الَّذِي مَا لَبِثَ أَنْ أَصْبَحَ عَاتِياً فِي الأَرْضِ.

And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.

٩ 9 كَانَ صَيَّاداً عَاتِياً أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ، لِذَلِكَ يُقَالُ: «كَنِمْرُودَ جَبَّارُّ صَيْدٍ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ».

He was a mighty hunter before Jehovah: wherefore it is said, Like Nimrod a mighty hunter before Jehovah.

١٠ 10 وَقَدْ تَكَوَّنَتْ مَمْلَكَتُهُ أَوَّلَ الأَمْرِ مِنْ بَابِلَ وَأَرَكَ وَأَكَّدَ وَكَلْنَةَ فِي أَرْضِ شِنْعَارَ.

And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

١١ 11 وَمِنْ تِلْكَ الأَرْضِ خَرَجَ أَشُّورُ وَبَنَى مُدُنَ نِينَوَى وَرَحُبُوتَ عَيْرَ وَكَالَحَ،

Out of that land he went forth into Assyria, and builded Nineveh, and Rehoboth-Ir, and Calah,

١٢ 12 وَرَسَنَ الْوَاقِعَةَ بَيْنَ نِينَوَى وَكَالَحَ. وَهِيَ الْمَدِينَةُ الْكَبِيرَةُ.

and Resen between Nineveh and Calah (the same is the great city).

١٣ 13 وَمِنْ مِصْرَايِمَ تَحَدَّرَتْ هَذِهِ الْقَبَائِلُ: اللُّودِيُّونَ وَالْعَنَامِيُّونَ، وَاللهَابِيُّونَ وَالنَّفْتُوحِيُّونَ

And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,

١٤ 14 وَالْفَتْرُوسِيُّونَ وَالْكَسْلُوحِيُّونَ. وَمِنْهُمْ تَحَدَّرَ الْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ وَالْكَفْتُورِيُّونَ.

and Pathrusim, and Casluhim (whence went forth the Philistines), and Caphtorim.

١٥ 15 وَأَنْجَبَ كَنْعَانُ صِيدُونَ ابْنَهُ الْبِكْرَ ثُمَّ حِثًّا،

And Canaan begat Sidon his first-born, and Heth,

١٦ 16 وَمِنْهُ تَحَدَّرَتْ قَبَائِلُ الْيَبُوسِيِّينَ وَالأَمُورِيِّينَ وَالْجِرْجَاشِيِّينَ،

and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgashite,

١٧ 17 وَالْحِوِّيِّينَ وَالْعَرْقِيِّينَ وَالسِّينِيِّينَ،

and the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite,

١٨ 18 وَالأَرْوَادِيِّينَ وَالصَّمَارِيِّينَ وَالْحَمَاتِيِّينَ، وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ انْتَشَرَتِ الْقَبَائِلُ الْكَنْعَانِيَّةُ

and the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite: and afterward were the families of the Canaanite spread abroad.

١٩ 19 فِي الأَرَاضِي الْوَاقِعَةِ بَيْنَ صِيدُونَ وَغَزَّةَ مُرُوراً بِجَرَارَ، وَبَيْنَ صِيدُونَ وَلاشَعَ مُرُوراً بِسَدُومَ وَعَمُورَةَ وَأَدْمَةَ وَصَبُويِيمَ.

And the border of the Canaanite was from Sidon, as thou goest toward Gerar, unto Gaza; as thou goest toward Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboiim, unto Lasha.

٢٠ 20 كَانَ هَؤُلاءِ هُمُ الْمُنْحَدِرُونَ مِنْ حَامٍ بِحَسَبِ قَبَائِلِهِمْ وَلُغَاتِهِمْ وَبُلْدَانِهِمْ وَشُعُوبِهِمْ.

These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, in their nations.

٢١ 21 وَأَنْجَبَ سَامٌ، أَخُو يَافَثَ الأَكْبَرُ، أَبْنَاءً. وَمِنْهُ تَحَدَّرَ جَمِيعُ بَنِي عَابِرَ.

And unto Shem, the father of all the children of Eber, the elder brother of Japheth, to him also were children born.

٢٢ 22 أَمَّا أَبْنَاءُ سَامٍ فَهُمْ: عِيلامُ وَأَشُّورُ وَأَرْفَكْشَادُ وَلُودُ وَأَرَامُ

The sons of Shem: Elam, and Asshur, and Arpachshad, and Lud, and Aram.

٢٣ 23 وَأَبْنَاءُ أَرَامَ: عُوصُ، وَحُولُ، وَجَاثَرُ وَمَاشُ.

And the sons of Aram: Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.

٢٤ 24 وَأَنْجَبَ أَرْفَكْشَادُ شَالَحَ، وَوَلَدَ شَالَحُ عَابِرَ.

And Arpachshad begat Shelah; and Shelah begat Eber.

٢٥ 25 وَوُلِدَ لِعَابِرَ ابْنَانِ: اسْمُ أَحَدِهِمَا فَالَجُ (وَمَعْنَاهُ انْقِسَامٌ) لأَنَّ أَهْلَ الأَرْضِ انْقَسَمُوا فِي أَيَّامِهِ. وَاسْمُ أَخِيهِ يَقْطَانُ.

And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother’s name was Joktan.

٢٦ 26 وَأَنْجَبَ يَقْطَانُ أَلْمُودَادَ وَشَالَفَ وَحَضَرْمَوْتَ وَيَارَحَ،

And Joktan begat Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah,

٢٧ 27 وَهَدُورَامَ وَأُوزَالَ وَدِقْلَةَ،

and Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah,

٢٨ 28 وَعُوبَالَ وَأَبِيمَايِلَ وَشَبَا،

and Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba,

٢٩ 29 وَأُوفِيرَ وَحَوِيلَةَ وَيُوبَابَ. وَهَؤُلاءِ جَمِيعُهُمْ أَبْنَاءُ يَقْطَانَ.

and Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab: all these were the sons of Joktan.

٣٠ 30 وَقَدِ اسْتَوْطَنُوا فِي الأَرَاضِي الْوَاقِعَةِ بَيْنَ مِيشَا وَالتِّلالِ الشَّرْقِيَّةِ مِنْ جَبَلِ سَفَارَ.

And their dwelling was from Mesha, as thou goest toward Sephar, the mountain of the east.

٣١ 31 هَؤُلاءِ هُمُ الْمُنْحَدِرُونَ مِنْ سَامٍ حَسَبَ قَبَائِلِهِمْ وَلُغَاتِهِمْ وَبُلْدَانِهِمْ وَشُعُوبِهِمْ.

These are the sons of Shem, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, after their nations.

٣٢ 32 هَذِهِ هِيَ الْقَبَائِلُ الْمُنْحَدِرَةُ مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ نُوحٍ حَسَبَ شُعُوبِهِمْ، وَمِنْهُمُ انْتَشَرَتِ الأُمَمُ فِي الأَرْضِ بَعْدَ الطُّوفَانِ.

These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations: and of these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.
