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.
Haddaba kuwanu waa farcankii wiilashii Nuux, kuwaas oo ahaa Sheem, Xaam iyo Yaafed: oo wiilal baa u dhashay iyaga daadkii dabadiis.
2 The sons of Japheth were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.
Wiilashii Yaafed waxay ahaayeen Gomer, iyo Maajuuj, iyo Maaday, iyo Yaawaan, iyo Tubal, iyo Mesheg, iyo Tiiraas.
3 The sons of Gomer were Askenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.
Wiilashii Gomerna waxay ahaayeen Ashkenas, iyo Riifad, iyo Togarmaah.
4 The sons of Javan were Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.
Wiilashii Yaawaanna waxay ahaayeen Eliishah, iyo Tarshiish, iyo Kitiim iyo Dodaaniim.
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.
Kuwaasay jasiiradihii quruumuhu ugu kala qaybsameen waddammadoodii, dad kasta sidii afkoodii, iyo qabiilooyinkoodii, iyo quruumahoodii ay ahaayeen.
6 The descendants of Ham were Cush, Egypt, Put, and Canaan.
Wiilashii Xaamna waxay ahaayeen Kuush, iyo Misrayim, iyo Fuud, iyo Kancaan.
7 The descendants of Cush were Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. The descendants of Raamah were Sheba and Dedan.
Wiilashii Kuushna waxay ahaayeen Sebaa, iyo Xawiilaah, iyo Sabtaah, iyo Racmaah, iyo Sabteka: wiilashii Racmaahna waxay ahaayeen Shebaa, iyo Dedaan.
8 Another one of Cush’s descendants was Nimrod. Nimrod was the first person on earth who became a mighty warrior.
Kuushna wuxuu dhalay Nimrod: wuxuuna bilaabay inuu noqdo mid dhulka xoog weyn ku leh.
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.”
Wuxuu ahaa ugaadhsade ku xoog weyn Rabbiga hortiisa: taas daraaddeed waxaa la yidhaahdaa, Sidii Nimrod ugaadhsade xoog weyn Rabbiga hortiisa.
10 Nimrod became a king who ruled in Babylonia. The first cities over which he ruled were Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh.
Bilowgii boqortooyadiisu waxay ahayd Baabel, iyo Ereg, iyo Akad, iyo Kalneh, waxayna ku yiilleen waddankii Shincaar.
11 From there he went [with others] to Assyria and built the cities of Nineveh, Rehoboth-Ir, Calah,
Dhulkaas wuu ka tegey oo wuxuu galay Ashuur, wuxuuna dhisay Nineweh, iyo Rexobod, iyo Kaalah,
12 and Resen. Resen was a large city between Nineveh and Calah.
iyo Resen oo u dhexeeyey Nineweh iyo Kaalah, (taasuna waxay tahay magaalada weyn).
13 Ham’s son, Egypt, became the ancestor of the Lud, Anam, Lehab and Naphtuh,
Misrayimna wuxuu dhalay Luudiim, iyo Canaamiim, iyo Lehaabiim iyo Naftuxiim,
14 Pathrus, Casluh and Caphtor people-groups. The Philistine people were descended from Casluh.
iyo Fatrusiim iyo Kasluxiim (oo ay reer Falastiin ka yimaadeen), iyo Kaftoriim.
15 Ham’s youngest son, Canaan, became the father of Sidon, who was his eldest son, and Heth, his younger son.
Kancaanna wuxuu dhalay Siidoon oo ahaa curadkiisii, iyo Xeed;
16 Canaan was also the ancestor of the Jebus, Amor, Girgash,
iyo reer Yebuus, iyo reer Amor, iyo reer Girgaash;
17 Hiv, Ark, Sin,
iyo reer Xiwi, iyo reer Carqi, iyo reer Siini;
18 Arved, Zemar and Hamath people-groups. Later the descendants of Canaan dispersed over a large area.
iyo reer Arwaad, iyo reer Semaar, iyo reer Xamaad: dabadeedna qabiilooyinkii Kancaan way kala firdheen.
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].
Oo soohdintii reer Kancaan waxay ka bilaabmaysay Siidoon, markii loo kaco xagga Geraar, ilaa Gaasa, oo markii loo kaco xagga Sodom iyo Gomora iyo Admah iyo Seboyim, ilaa Laashac.
20 Those are the descendants of Ham. They became groups that had their own clans, their own languages, and their own land.
Kuwanu waxay ahaayeen wiilashii Xaam, sidii qabiilooyinkoodii, iyo afafkoodii, iyo waddammadoodii, iyo quruumahoodii ay ahaayeen.
21 Shem, the older brother of Japheth, became the father of Eber, and the ancestor of all the descendants of Eber.
Sheem oo aabbe u ahaa carruurtii Ceeber oo dhan, oo ahaa Yaafed walaalkiisii weynaa, isagana carruur baa u dhalatay.
22 The sons of Shem were Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram.
Wiilashii Sheemna waxay ahaayeen Ceelaam, iyo Ashuur, iyo Arfaksad, iyo Luud, iyo Araam.
23 The sons of Aram were Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.
Wiilashii Araamna waxay ahaayeen Cuus, iyo Xuul, iyo Geter, iyo Mash.
24 Arphaxad became the father of Shelah. Shelah became the father of Eber.
Arfaksadna wuxuu dhalay Salah; Salahna wuxuu dhalay Ceeber.
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.
Ceeberna waxaa u dhashay laba wiil: mid magiciisu wuxuu ahaa Feleg; waayo, waagiisii ayaa dhulku qaybsamay; magaca walaalkiisna wuxuu ahaa Yoqtaan.
26 Joktan became the ancestor of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah,
Yoqtaanna wuxuu dhalay Almoodaad, iyo Shelef, iyo Xasarmaawed, iyo Yerah;
27 Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,
iyo Hadooraam, iyo Uusaal, iyo Diqlah;
28 Obal, Abimael, Sheba,
iyo Coobaal, iyo Abiimaa'el, iyo Shebaa;
29 Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All those people were descended from Joktan.
iyo Oofir, iyo Xawiilaah, iyo Yoobaab: kuwaasu kulli waxay ahaayeen wiilashii Yoqtaan.
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).
Meeshay degganaayeenna waxay ka bilaabmaysay Meesha, markii loo kaco xagga Sefaar, buurta bari.
31 They are descendants of Shem. They became groups that had their own clans, their own languages, and their own land.
Kuwanu waxay ahaayeen wiilashii Sheem; sidii qabiilooyinkoodii, iyo afafkoodii, iyo waddammadoodii, iyo quruumahoodii ay ahaayeen.
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.
Kuwanu waa qabiilooyinkii wiilashii Nuux; sidii farcankoodii iyo quruumahoodii ay ahaayeen; oo kuwanaa quruumuhu ka kala qaybsameen daadkii dabadiis.
