< Genesis 10 >
1 These were the descendants of the sons of Noah, that is, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons were born to them after the flood.
Hæ sunt generationes filiorum Noë, Sem, Cham et Japheth: natique sunt eis filii post diluvium.
2 The sons of Japheth were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.
Filii Japheth: Gomer, et Magog, et Madai, et Javan, et Thubal, et Mosoch, et Thiras.
3 The sons of Gomer were Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.
Porro filii Gomer: Ascenez et Riphath et Thogorma.
4 The sons of Javan were Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.
Filii autem Javan: Elisa et Tharsis, Cetthim et Dodanim.
5 From these the coastland peoples separated and went into their lands, every one with its own language, according to their clans, by their nations.
Ab his divisæ sunt insulæ gentium in regionibus suis, unusquisque secundum linguam suam et familias suas in nationibus suis.
6 The sons of Ham were Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.
Filii autem Cham: Chus, et Mesraim, et Phuth, et Chanaan.
7 The sons of Cush were Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteka. The sons of Raamah were Sheba and Dedan.
Filii Chus: Saba, et Hevila, et Sabatha, et Regma, et Sabatacha. Filii Regma: Saba et Dadan.
8 Cush became the father of Nimrod, who was the first conqueror on the earth.
Porro Chus genuit Nemrod: ipse cœpit esse potens in terra,
9 He was a mighty hunter before Yahweh. That is why it is said, “Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before Yahweh.”
et erat robustus venator coram Domino. Ob hoc exivit proverbium: Quasi Nemrod robustus venator coram Domino.
10 The first centers of his kingdom were Babel, Erech, Akkad, and Kalneh, in the land of Shinar.
Fuit autem principium regni ejus Babylon, et Arach et Achad, et Chalanne, in terra Sennaar.
11 Out of that land he went to Assyria and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah,
De terra illa egressus est Assur, et ædificavit Niniven, et plateas civitatis, et Chale.
12 and Resen, which was between Nineveh and Calah. It was a large city.
Resen quoque inter Niniven et Chale: hæc est civitas magna.
13 Mizraim became the father of the Ludites, the Anamites, the Lehabites, the Naphtuhites,
At vero Mesraim genuit Ludim, et Anamim et Laabim, Nephthuim,
14 the Pathrusites, the Kasluhites (from whom the Philistines came), and the Caphtorites.
et Phetrusim, et Chasluim: de quibus egressi sunt Philisthiim et Caphtorim.
15 Canaan became the father of Sidon, his firstborn, and of Heth,
Chanaan autem genuit Sidonem primogenitum suum. Hethæum,
16 also of the Jebusites, the Amorites, the Girgashites,
et Jebusæum, et Amorrhæum, Gergesæum,
17 the Hivites, the Arkites, the Sinites,
Hevæum, et Aracæum: Sinæum,
18 the Arvadites, the Zemarites, and the Hamathites. Afterward the clans of the Canaanites spread out.
et Aradium, Samaræum, et Amathæum: et post hæc disseminati sunt populi Chananæorum.
19 The border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, in the direction of Gerar, as far as Gaza, and as one goes toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboyim, as far as Lasha.
Factique sunt termini Chanaan venientibus a Sidone Geraram usque Gazam, donec ingrediaris Sodomam et Gomorrham, et Adamam, et Seboim usque Lesa.
20 These were the sons of Ham, by their clans, by their languages, in their lands, and in their nations.
Hi sunt filii Cham in cognationibus, et linguis, et generationibus, terrisque et gentibus suis.
21 Sons also were born to Shem, the older brother of Japheth. Shem was also the ancestor of all the people of Eber.
De Sem quoque nati sunt, patre omnium filiorum Heber, fratre Japheth majore.
22 The sons of Shem were Elam, Ashur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram.
Filii Sem: Ælam, et Assur, et Arphaxad, et Lud, et Aram.
23 The sons of Aram were Uz, Hul, Gether, and Meshech.
Filii Aram: Us, et Hul, et Gether, et Mes.
24 Arphaxad became the father of Shelah, and Shelah became the father of Eber.
At vero Arphaxad genuit Sale, de quo ortus est Heber.
25 Eber had two sons. The name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided. His brother's name was Joktan.
Natique sunt Heber filii duo: nomen uni Phaleg, eo quod in diebus ejus divisa sit terra: et nomen fratris ejus Jectan.
26 Joktan became the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah,
Qui Jectan genuit Elmodad, et Saleph, et Asarmoth, Jare,
27 Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,
et Aduram, et Uzal, et Decla,
et Ebal, et Abimaël, Saba,
29 Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All these were the sons of Joktan.
et Ophir, et Hevila, et Jobab: omnes isti, filii Jectan.
30 Their territory was from Mesha, all the way to Sephar, the mountain of the east.
Et facta est habitatio eorum de Messa pergentibus usque Sephar montem orientalem.
31 These were the sons of Shem, according to their clans and their languages, in their lands, according to their nations.
Isti filii Sem secundum cognationes, et linguas, et regiones in gentibus suis.
32 These were the clans of the sons of Noah, according to their genealogies, by their nations. From these the nations separated and went over the earth after the flood.
Hæ familiæ Noë juxta populos et nationes suas. Ab his divisæ sunt gentes in terra post diluvium.
