< Genesis 10 >

1 This is the account of Noah’s sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, who also had sons after the flood.
Ary izao no taranaky ny zanakalahin’ i Noa, dia Sema sy Hama ary Jafeta: Samy niteraka zazalahy avy izy taorian’ ny safo-drano.
2 The sons of Japheth: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.
Ny zanakalahin’ i Jafeta dia Gomera sy Magoga sy Maday sy Javana sy Tobala sy Maseka ary Tirasa.
3 The sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.
Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Gomera dia Askenaza sy Rifata ary Togarma.
4 And the sons of Javan: Elishah, Tarshish, the Kittites, and the Rodanites.
Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Javana dia Elisaha sy Tarsisy sy ny Kitima sy ny Dodanita.
5 From these, the maritime peoples separated into their territories, according to their languages, by clans within their nations.
Avy tamin’ ireo no niavakavahan’ ny nosin’ ny firenena tany amin’ ny taniny, dia samy araka ny fiteniny avy, araka ny mpianakaviny avy, tamin’ ny fireneny avy.
6 The sons of Ham: Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.
Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Hama dia Kosy sy Mizraima sy Pota ary Kanana.
7 The sons of Cush: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. And the sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan.
Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Kosy dia Seba sy Havila sy Sabta sy Ragama ary Sabteka; ary ny zanakalahin’ i Ragama dia Seba sy Dedana.
8 Cush was the father of Nimrod, who began to be a mighty one on the earth.
Ary Kosy niteraka an’ i Nimroda; izy no voalohany izay tonga olona mahery tambonin’ ny tany.
9 He was a mighty hunter before the LORD; so it is said, “Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the LORD.”
Izy dia mpihaza mahery teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, ka izany no nanaovan’ ny olona hoe: Tahaka an’ i Nimroda, mpihaza mahery eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah.
10 His kingdom began in Babylon, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
Ary ny niandohan’ ny fanjakany dia Babela sy Ereka sy Akada ary Kalne tany amin’ ny tany Sinara.
11 From that land he went forth into Assyria, where he built Nineveh, Rehoboth-Ir, Calah,
Ary nivoaka avy tamin’ izany tany izany izy ka nankany Asyria, dia nanorina an’ i Ninive mbamin’ i Rehobot-ira sy Kala
12 and Resen, which is between Nineveh and the great city of Calah.
ary Resena teo anelanelan’ i Ninive sy Kala, dia ilay tanàna lehibe izany.
13 Mizraim was the father of the Ludites, the Anamites, the Lehabites, the Naphtuhites,
Ary Mizraima niteraka ny Lodita sy ny Anamita sy ny Lehabita sy ny Naftohita
14 the Pathrusites, the Casluhites (from whom the Philistines came), and the Caphtorites.
sy ny Patrosita sy ny Kaslohita izay nihavian’ ny Filistina ary ny Kaftorita.
15 And Canaan was the father of Sidon his firstborn, and of the Hittites,
Ary Kanana niteraka an’ i Sidona lahimatoany sy Heta,
16 the Jebusites, the Amorites, the Girgashites,
ary ny Jebosita, sy ny Amorita sy ny Girgasita
17 the Hivites, the Arkites, the Sinites,
sy ny Hivita sy ny Arkita sy ny Sinita
18 the Arvadites, the Zemarites, and the Hamathites. Later the Canaanite clans were scattered,
sy ny Arvadita sy ny Zemarita ary ny Hamatita; ary nony taoriana dia niely ny firenen’ ny Kananita.
19 and the borders of Canaan extended from Sidon toward Gerar as far as Gaza, and then toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha.
Ary ny fari-tanin’ ny Kananita dia hatrany Sidona ka hatrany Gaza ao akaikin’ i Gerara, ka hatrany Lesa ao akaikin’ i Sodoma sy Gomora sy Adma ary Zeboïma.
20 These are the sons of Ham according to their clans, languages, lands, and nations.
Ireo no zanak’ i Hama, araka ny mpianakaviny, araka ny fiteniny, amin’ ny taniny, amin’ ny fireneny.
21 And sons were also born to Shem, the older brother of Japheth; Shem was the forefather of all the sons of Eber.
Dia niteraka koa Sema, rain’ ny zanak’ i Ebera rehetra rahalahin’ i Jafeta, izay zokiny.
22 The sons of Shem: Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram.
Ny zanakalahin’ i Sema dia Elama sy Asyra sy Arpaksada sy Loda ary Arama.
23 The sons of Aram: Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.
Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Arama dia Oza sy Hola sy Gatera ary Masy.
24 Arphaxad was the father of Shelah, and Shelah was the father of Eber.
Ary Arpaksada niteraka an’ i Sela; ary Sela niteraka an’ i Ebera.
25 Two sons were born to Eber: One was named Peleg, because in his days the earth was divided, and his brother was named Joktan.
Ary Ebera niteraka roa lahy: ny anaran’ ny iray natao hoe Palega, satria tamin’ ny androny no nizarana ny tany; ary Joktana no anaran’ ny rahalahiny.
26 And Joktan was the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah,
Ary Joktana niteraka an’ i Almodada sy Salefa sy Hazarmaveta sy Jera
27 Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,
sy Hadorama sy Ozala sy Dikla
28 Obal, Abimael, Sheba,
sy Obala sy Abimaela sy Sheba
29 Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All these were sons of Joktan.
sy Ofira sy Havila ary Jobaba; ireo rehetra ireo no zanakalahin’ i Joktana.
30 Their territory extended from Mesha to Sephar, in the eastern hill country.
Ary ny fonenan’ ireo dia hatrany Mesa ao akaikin’ i Sefara, tendrombohitra atsinanana.
31 These are the sons of Shem, according to their clans, languages, lands, and nations.
Ireo no zanak’ i Sema, araka ny mpianakaviny, araka ny fiteniny, amin’ ny taniny, araka ny fireneny.
32 All these are the clans of Noah’s sons, according to their generations and nations. From these the nations of the earth spread out after the flood.
Ireo no mpianakavin’ ny zanak’ i Noa, araka ny taranany, amin’ ny fireneny; ary avy tamin’ ireo no niavakavahan’ ny firenena tambonin’ ny tany taorian’ ny safo-drano.
