8 And Chus begot Nebrod: he began to be a giant upon the earth.
And, Cush begat Nimrod.—he, became a hero in the earth;
9 He was a giant hunter before the Lord God; therefore they say, As Nebrod the giant hunter before the Lord.
he, became a hero of hunting before Yahweh, for this cause, it is said. Like Nimrod, a hero of hunting before Yahweh.
10 And the beginning of his kingdom was Babylon, and Orech, and Archad, and Chalanne, in the land of Senaar.
So the beginning of his kingdom came to be Babel, and Erech, and Accad and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
11 Out of that land came Assur, and built Ninevi, and the city Rhooboth, and Chalach,
From that land, went forth Asshur, —and he built Nineveh, and Rehoboth-ir, and Calah:
12 and Dase between Ninevi and Chalach: this is the great city.
and Resen, between Niveveh and Calah, —the same is the great city.
13 And Mesrain begot the Ludiim, and the Nephthalim, and the Enemetiim, and the Labiim,
And, Mizraim, begat Ludim and Anamim and Lehabim, and Naphtuchim;
14 and the Patrosoniim, and the Chasmoniim (whence came forth Phylistiim) and the Gaphthoriim.
and Pathrusim and Casluhim whence came forth Philistim and Caphtorim.
15 And Chanaan begot Sidon his firstborn, and the Chettite,
And Canaan begat Zidon his firstborn, and Heth:
16 and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgashite,
and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgashite;
17 and the Evite, and the Arukite, and the Asennite,
and the Hivite and the Arkite, and the Sinite:
18 and the Aradian, and the Samarean, and the Amathite; and after this the tribes of the Chananites were dispersed.
and the Arvadite and the Zemarite and the Hamathite, —and after-wards, were spread abroad the families of the Canaanite.
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.
And it came to pass that the boundary of the Canaanite was from Zidon, as thou enterest in towards Gerar unto Gaza, —as thou enterest in towards Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboim, as far as Lasha.
20 There [were] the sons of Cham in their tribes according to their tongues, in their countries, and in their nations.

And, the sons of Aram: Uz and Hul, and Gether and Mash.
24 And Arphaxad begot Cainan, and Cainan begot Sala. And Sala begot Heber.
Now Arpachshad, begat Shelah, and Shelah begat Eber.
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.
And to Eber, were born two sons, —the name of the one was Peleg, for in his days, was the earth divided, and the name of his brother was Joktan.
26 And Jektan begot Elmodad, and Saleth, and Sarmoth, and Jarach,
Now, Joktan, begat Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah;

30 And their dwelling was from Masse, till one comes to Saphera, a mountain of the east.
And it came to pass that their dwelling was from Mesha, as thou enterest in towards Sephar, the 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.
These, are the families of the sons of Noah, by their generations in their nations, and from these, were dispersed the nations in the earth after the flood.
