Genesis 10
1 (This is/I will now give) a list of the descendants of Noah’s sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. They had many children after the flood.
Hano bagade da yolesili, Nowa: ea mano Sieme, Ha: me amola Ya: ifede da manolali lai.
2 The sons of Japheth were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.
Ya: ifede egefelali da agoane lalelegei. Ya: ifede ea mano da Goume, Ma: igoge, Ma: dai, Ya: ifa: ne, Diubale, Misege amola Dila: se.
3 The sons of Gomer were Askenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.
Goume ea dunu mano da A: segena: se, Laifa: de amola Dougama.
4 The sons of Javan were Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.
Ya: ifa: ne egefelali da Ilaisia, Dasise, Gidimi amola Loudanimi.
5 Those sons and their families who were descended from Javan lived on the islands and on the land close to the [Mediterranean] Sea. Their descendants became tribes, each with its own language and clans and territory.
(Amo mano ilia fi da dusagai ouligisu hou hamone ilia fifi asi gala asili sia: hisu hisu hamosu).
6 The descendants of Ham were Cush, Egypt, Put, and Canaan.
Ha: me egefelali da Gusia, Misala: ime, Fade amola Ga: ina: ne.
7 The descendants of Cush were Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. The descendants of Raamah were Sheba and Dedan.
Gusia egefelali da Seba, Ha: fila, Sa: bada, Lama amola Sa: bediga. Lama egefela da Siba amola Dida: ne.
8 Another one of Cush’s descendants was Nimrod. Nimrod was the first person on earth who became a mighty warrior.
Gusia ea mano eno da Nimilode. E da asigilaloba, nimi bagade gegesu dunu hamoi.
9 Yahweh saw that he had become (OR, caused him to become) a great hunter. That is why people say to a great hunter, “Yahweh (sees that you are/has caused you to be) a great hunter like Nimrod.”
E da Hina Gode ba: ma: ne benea ahoasu dunu gasa bagade hamoi. Amaiba: le, musa: dunu da amane sia: su, “Hina Gode da di benea ahoasu dunu Nimilode defele hamomu da defea.”
10 Nimrod became a king who ruled in Babylonia. The first cities over which he ruled were Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh.
Moilai bai bagade ea soge Siaina ganodini da Ba: bilone, Elege, A:ga: de amola Ga: lene.
11 From there he went [with others] to Assyria and built the cities of Nineveh, Rehoboth-Ir, Calah,
Amo soge yolesili, e da Asilia sogega asi. Amoga e da moilai bai bagade eno hahamone gagai amo Ninefe, Lihoubode, Ga: ila,
12 and Resen. Resen was a large city between Nineveh and Calah.
amola Lisene. La: idi da Ninefe, la: idi da Ga: ila amola Lisene da moilai bai bagadedafa dogoa galu.
13 Ham’s son, Egypt, became the ancestor of the Lud, Anam, Lehab and Naphtuh,
Misala: ime ea mano da Ludaide fi, Anamaide fi, Lehabaide fi, Na: baduhaide fi,
14 Pathrus, Casluh and Caphtor people-groups. The Philistine people were descended from Casluh.
Badalusaide fi, Gasaluhaide fi (amo fi amoga Filisidini fi da misi) amola Ga: fadolaide fi.
15 Ham’s youngest son, Canaan, became the father of Sidon, who was his eldest son, and Heth, his younger son.
Ga: ina: ne ea mano da Saidone (ea magobo mano), Hidaide fi,
16 Canaan was also the ancestor of the Jebus, Amor, Girgash,
Yebiusaide fi, A:moulaide fi, Gegasiaide fi,
17 Hiv, Ark, Sin,
Haifaide fi, Agaide fi, Sainaide fi,
18 Arved, Zemar and Hamath people-groups. Later the descendants of Canaan dispersed over a large area.
Afadaide fi, Semalaide fi, Ha: imadaide fi. Fa: no Ga: ina: ne fi dunu huluane da afafai.
19 Their land extended from Sidon [city] in the north as far south as Gaza [town], and then to the east as far as Gerar [town], and then farther east to Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim [towns], and even as far as Lasha [town].
Ga: ina: ne fi ilia soge olei da asili amo Saidone moilai bai bagade asili Gela asili Ga: isa moilai bai bagadega doaga: i. Amalalu, soge olei da Sodame moilai bai bagadega asili, Goumola moilai bai bagade amola A: dama moilai bai bagade amola Siboimi moilai bai bagade baligili, La: isia moilai bai bagadega doaga: i.
20 Those are the descendants of Ham. They became groups that had their own clans, their own languages, and their own land.
Amo dedei da Ha: me ea mano - ilia fi amola sia: hisu hisu amola sogebi da sosogo bagade ba: i.
21 Shem, the older brother of Japheth, became the father of Eber, and the ancestor of all the descendants of Eber.
Sieme da Ya: ifede ea ola esalu. Sieme da Hibulu dunu fi huluane amo ilia aowalali eda.
22 The sons of Shem were Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram.
Sieme egefelali da Ila: me, A:sie, Afa: gasa: de, Lade amola A: ila: me.
23 The sons of Aram were Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.
A: ila: me egefelali da Ase, Hale, Gidie amola Misiege.
24 Arphaxad became the father of Shelah. Shelah became the father of Eber.
Afa: gasa: de ea mano da Sila amola Sila ea mano da Ibe.
25 Eber became the father of two sons. One of them was named Peleg, [which means ‘division’], because during the time he lived, people on [MTY] the earth became divided and scattered everywhere. Peleg’s younger brother was Joktan.
Ibe da dunu mano aduna lai. Afae ea dio amo Bilege (Bai e esalea osobo bagade da afafai ba: i). Bilege ea eya dio amo Yogada: ne.
26 Joktan became the ancestor of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah,
Yogada: ne ea mano da A: lamouda: de, Silefe, Ha: isama: ifede, Yila,
27 Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,
Hadoula: me, Usa: le, Digala,
28 Obal, Abimael, Sheba,
Ouba: le, Abima: ile, Siba,
29 Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All those people were descended from Joktan.
Oufe, Ha: fila amola Youba: be. Amo huluane da Yogada: ne ea mano.
30 The areas in which they lived extended from Mesha westward to Sephar, which is in the (hill country/area that has a lot of hills).
Ilia esalebe soge da goumi gusudi soge ea ole da Misia alalo asili Sifa doaga: i.
31 They are descendants of Shem. They became groups that had their own clans, their own languages, and their own land.
Amo dedei da Sieme ea mano - ilia fi, sia: hisu hisu, ilia sogebi amola ilia soge da bagade ba: i.
32 All those groups descended from the sons of Noah. Each group had its own (genealogy/record of people’s ancestors) and each became a separate ethnic group. Those ethnic groups formed after the flood and spread all around the earth.
Huluane da Nowa: ea mano ilia fi amo ilia sosogo fi amo ganodini amola fi gilisisu ilia hamoi. Amo fi amoga fi gilisisu huluane da hano bagade fa: no hamone, afafane osobo bagade nabasu.
