5 fra dem nedstammer de fjerne Strandes Folk. Det var Jafets Sønner i deres Lande, hver med sit Tungemaal, efter deres Slægter og i deres Folkeslag.

8 Og Kusj avlede Nimrod, som var den første Storhersker paa Jorden.
Now Chus begot Nemrod: he began to be mighty on the earth.
9 Han var en vældig Jæger for HERRENS Øjne; derfor siger man: »En vældig Jæger for HERRENS Øjne som Nimrod.«
And he was a stout hunter before the Lord. Hence came a proverb: Even as Nemrod the stout hunter before the Lord.
10 Fra først af omfattede hans Rige Babel, Erek, Akkad og Kalne i Sinear;
And the beginning of his kingdom was Babylon, and Arach, and Achad, and Chalanne in the land of Sennaar.
11 fra dette Land drog han til Assyrien og byggede Nineve, Rehobot-Ir, Kela
Out of that land came forth Assur, and built Ninive, and the streets of the city, and Chale.
12 og Resen mellem Nineve og Kela, det er den store By.
Resen also between Ninive and Chale: this is the great city.
13 Mizrajim avlede Luderne, Anamerne, Lehaberne, Naftuherne,
And Mesraim begot Ludim, and Anamim, and Laabim, Nepthuim,
14 Patruserne, Kasluherne, fra hvem Filisterne udgik, og Kaftorerne.
And Phetrusim, and Chasluim; of whom came forth the Philistines, and the Capthorim.
15 Kana'an avlede Zidon, hans førstefødte, Het,
And Chanaan begot Sidon, his firstborn, the Hethite,
16 Jebusiterne, Amoriterne, Girgasjiterne,
And the Jebusite, and the Amorrhite, and the Gergesite,
17 Hivviterne, Arkiterne, Siniterne,
The Hevite and the Aracite: the Sinite,
18 Arvaditerne, Zemariterne og Hamatiterne; men senere bredte Kana'anæernes Slægter sig,
And the Aradian, the Samarite, and the Hamathite: and afterwards the families of the Chanaanites were spread abroad.
19 saa at Kana'anæernes Omraade strakte sig fra Zidon i Retning af Gerar indtil Gaza, i Retning af Sodoma, Gomorra, Adma, og Zebojim indtil Lasja.
And the limits of Chanaan were from Sidon as one comes to Gerara even to Gaza, until thou enter Sodom and Gomorrha, and Adama, and Seboim even to Lesa.
20 Det var Kams Sønner efter deres Slægter og Tungemaal i deres Lande og Folk.
These are the children of Cham in their kindreds, and tongues, and generations, and lands, and nations.
21 Men ogsaa Sem, alle Ebersønnernes Fader, Jafets ældste Broder, fødtes der Sønner.
Of Sem also, the father of all the children of Heber, the elder brother of Japheth, sons were born.

But Arphaxad begot Sale, of whom was born Heber.
25 Eber fødtes der to Sønner; den ene hed Peleg, thi paa hans Tid adsplittedes Jordens Befolkning, og hans Broder hed Joktan.
And to Heber were born two sons: the name of the one was Phaleg, because in his days the earth was divided: and his brother’s name Jectan.
26 Joktan avlede Almodad, Sjelef, Hazarmavet, Jera,
Which Jectan begot Elmodad, and Saleph, and Asarmoth, Jare,
