8 Cush became the father of Nimrod, who was the first conqueror on the earth.
Cus engendra aussi Nimrod, qui commença d'être puissant sur la terre.
9 He was a mighty hunter before Yahweh. That is why it is said, “Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before Yahweh.”

10 The first centers of his kingdom were Babel, Erech, Akkad, and Kalneh, in the land of Shinar.
