Genesis 10
1 Now, these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and there were born to them sons after the flood.
Iyi ndiyo rondedzero yamarudzi aShemu, Hamu naJafeti, vana vaNoa, avo vakaitawo vanakomana mushure mamafashamu.
2 The sons of Japheth: Gomer and Magog, and Madai, and Javan and Tubal, —and Meshech, and Tiras.
Vanakomana vaJafeti vanoti: Gomeri, Magogi, Madhai, Javhani, Jubhari, Mesheki naTirasi.
3 And the sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz and Riphath, and Togarmah.
Vanakomana vaGomeri vanoti: Ashikenazi, Rifati naTogarima.
4 And the sons of Javan: Elishah, and Tarshish. Kittim, and Rodanim, —
Vanakomana vaJavhani vanoti: Erisha, Tashishi, Kitimi naRodhanimi.
5 From these, were dispersed [the inhabitants] of the coastlands of the nations, in their lands, each man by his tongue, by their families in their nations.
(Kubva kwavari ivava vanhu vomumahombekombe egungwa vakapararira munyika dzavo, nedzimba dzavo pakati pendudzi dzavo, rudzi rumwe norumwe nomutauro warwo.)
6 And, the sons of Ham: Cush and Mizraim and Phut and Canaan.
Vanakomana vaHamu vanoti: Kushi, Miziraimi, Puti naKenani.
7 And, the sons of Cush: Seba and Havilah, and Sabtah and Raamah, and Sabtechah, —And the sons of Raamah, Sheba and Dedan.
Vanakomana vaKushi vanoti: Sebha, Havhira, Sabhata, Rama naSabhiteka. Vanakomana vaRaama vanoti: Shebha naDhedhani.
8 And, Cush begat Nimrod.—he, became a hero in the earth;
Kushi akanga ari baba vaNimurodhi, uyo akanga ari murwi ane simba panyika.
9 he, became a hero of hunting before Yahweh, for this cause, it is said. Like Nimrod, a hero of hunting before Yahweh.
Akanga ari muvhimi mukuru pamberi paJehovha; ndokusaka zvichinzi, “SaNimirodhi, muvhimi mukuru pamberi paJehovha.”
10 So the beginning of his kingdom came to be Babel, and Erech, and Accad and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
Maguta okutanga oumambo hwake akanga ari Bhabhironi, Ereki, Akadhi neKarine, munyika yeShinari.
11 From that land, went forth Asshur, —and he built Nineveh, and Rehoboth-ir, and Calah:
Achibva munyika iyoyo akaenda kuAsiria, uko kwaakandovaka Ninevhe, Rehobhoti Iri, neKara
12 and Resen, between Niveveh and Calah, —the same is the great city.
neReseni, riri pakati peNinevhe neKara; rinova ndiro guta guru.
13 And, Mizraim, begat Ludim and Anamim and Lehabim, and Naphtuchim;
Miziraimi akanga ari baba veava: vaRudhi, vaAnami, vaRehabhi, vaNafutuhi,
14 and Pathrusim and Casluhim whence came forth Philistim and Caphtorim.
vaPaturusi, vaKasiruhi (kunova ndiko kwakabva vaFiristia) navaKafitori.
15 And Canaan begat Zidon his firstborn, and Heth:
Kenani akanga ari baba veava: Sidhoni dangwe rake, navaHiti,
16 and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgashite;
vaJebhusi, vaAmori, vaGirigashi,
17 and the Hivite and the Arkite, and the Sinite:
vaHivhi, vaAriki, vaSini,
18 and the Arvadite and the Zemarite and the Hamathite, —and after-wards, were spread abroad the families of the Canaanite.
vaAvhadhi, vaZemari navaHamati. (Shure kwaizvozvo dzimba dzavaKenani dzakapararira,
19 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.
uye miganhu yavaKenani yakasvika kuSidhoni yakananga kuGerari kusvikira kuGaza, uyezve yakananga kuSodhomu, Gomora, Adhima neZebhoimi, kusvikira kuRasha.)
20 These, are the sons of Ham, by their families by their tongues, in their lands in their nations.
Ava ndivo vanakomana vaHamu nedzimba dzavo uye nemitauro yavo, munyika dzavo nendudzi dzavo.
21 Now, to Shem, father of all the sons of Eber, elder brother of Japheth, to him also, were children born.
Shemu akaberekerwawo vanakomana, mukoma wake akanga ari Jafeti; Shemu akanga ari tateguru wavanakomana vose vaEbheri.
22 The sons of Shem, Elam and Asshur, —and Arpachshad and Lud and Aram.
Vanakomana vaShemu vaiti: Eramu, Ashuri, Afakisadhi, Rudhi naAramu.
23 And, the sons of Aram: Uz and Hul, and Gether and Mash.
Vanakomana vaAramu vaiti: Uzi, Huri, Geteri naMesheki.
24 Now Arpachshad, begat Shelah, and Shelah begat Eber.
Afakisadhi akanga ari baba vaShera, uye Shera ari baba vaEbheri.
25 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.
Ebheri akaberekerwa vanakomana vaviri: Mumwe ainzi Peregi, nokuti pamazuva ake nyika yakakamurwa; zita romununʼuna wake rainzi Jokitani.
26 Now, Joktan, begat Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah;
Jokitani akanga ari baba veava vanoti: Arimodhadhi, Sherefi, Hazamavheti, Jera,
27 and Hadoram and Uzal, and Diklah:
Hadhoramu, Uzari, Dhikira,
28 and Obal and Abimael, and Sheba:
Obhari, Abhimaeri, Shebha,
29 and Ophir and Havilah, and Jobab—all these were sons of Joktan.
Ofiri, Havhira naJobhabhi. Vose ava vakanga vari vanakomana vaJokitani.
30 And it came to pass that their dwelling was from Mesha, as thou enterest in towards Sephar, the mountain of the east.
(Dunhu ravaigara raibvira kuMesha rakananga kuSefari, kunyika yezvikomo yokumabvazuva.)
31 These are the sons of Shem, by their families by their tongues, in their lands by their nations.
Ava ndivo vanakomana vaShemu nedzimba dzavo uye nemitauro yavo, munyika dzavo nendudzi dzavo.
32 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.
Idzi ndidzo dzimba dzavanakomana vaNoa maererano nezvizvarwa zvavo, pakati pendudzi dzavo. Kubva kuna ava ndudzi dzakapararira pamusoro penyika shure kwamafashamu.
