Genesis 10
1 Now this is the history of the generations of the sons of Noah and of Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons were born to them after the flood.
Bano be bazzukulu ba Nuuwa, Seemu ne Kaamu, ne Yafeesi be baazaala oluvannyuma lw’amataba.
2 The sons of Japheth were: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.

Batabani ba Yivani baali: Erisa, ne Talusiisi, ne Kittimu ne Dodanimu.
5 Of these were the islands of the nations divided in their lands, everyone after his language, after their families, in their nations.
(Mu bano mwe mwava abo abaabuna olubalama lw’ennyanja. Bano be batabani ba Yafeesi mu bitundu byabwe, buli bamu mu nnimi zaabwe ng’ennyumba zaabwe n’amawanga gaabwe bwe biri.)
6 The sons of Ham were: Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.

8 Cush became the father of Nimrod. He began to be a mighty one in the earth.
Kuusi ye yazaala Nimuloodi; ye yasooka okuba omuntu ow’amaanyi ennyo ku nsi.
9 He was a mighty hunter before the LORD. Therefore it is said, “like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the LORD”.
Yali muyizzi kkungwa, mu maaso ga Mukama, kyekyava kigambibwa nti, “Afaanana Nimuloodi omuyizzi kkungwa mu maaso ga Mukama.”
10 The beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
Obwakabaka bwe bwatandikira Baberi, ne Eneki ne Akudi ne Kalune, nga byonna bya mu nsi Sinali.
11 Out of that land he went into Assyria, and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah,
Bwe yava mu nsi eyo n’agenda mu Bwasuli, n’azimba Nineeve, ne Lekobosiyira, ne Kala ne
12 and Resen between Nineveh and the great city Calah.
Leseni, wakati wa Nineeve ne Kala; Leseni kye kyali ekibuga ekikulu.
13 Mizraim became the father of Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim,
Mizulayimu oba Misiri ye kitaawe wa Ludimu, ne Anamimu, ne Lekabimu, ne Nafutukimu,
14 Pathrusim, Casluhim (which the Philistines descended from), and Caphtorim.
ne Pasulusimu, ne Kasulukimu (omwava Abafirisuuti) ne Kafutorimu.
15 Canaan became the father of Sidon (his firstborn), Heth,
Kanani ye yazaala Sidoni, omwana we omubereberye, ne Keesi,
16 the Jebusites, the Amorites, the Girgashites,

n’Abaluvada, n’Abazemali, n’Abakamasi n’ebika eby’omu Kanani ne babuna wonna.
19 The border of the Canaanites was from Sidon—as you go towards Gerar—to Gaza—as you go towards Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim—to Lasha.
Ekitundu kya Kanani kyava ku Sidoni, okwolekera Gerali n’okutuukira ddala e Gaza okwolekera Sodomu, ne Ggomola, ne Aduma, ne Zeboyimu okutuukira ddala e Lasa.
20 These are the sons of Ham, after their families, according to their languages, in their lands and their nations.
Abo be bazzukulu ba Kaamu, mu nda zaabwe ne nnimi zaabwe, mu bitundu byabwe ne mu mawanga gaabwe.
21 Children were also born to Shem (the elder brother of Japheth), the father of all the children of Eber.
Seemu kitaawe w’abo bonna abaava mu Eberi, mukulu wa Yafeesi naye yazaalirwa abaana.

Alupakusaadi ye kitaawe wa Seera. Seera ye kitaawe wa Eberi.
25 To Eber were born two sons. The name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided. His brother’s name was Joktan.
Omu ku batabani ba Eberi yali Peregi, kubanga we yazaalirwa ensi yali yeesazeemu, muganda we ye yali Yokutaani.
26 Joktan became the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah,

ne Ofiri, ne Kavira ne Yobabu; bano bonna baali batabani ba Yokutaani.
30 Their dwelling extended from Mesha, as you go towards Sephar, the mountain of the east.
Ekitundu mwe baali kyava ku Mesa okwolekera Serali, okutuukira ddala ku kitundu eky’ensozi ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba.
31 These are the sons of Shem, by their families, according to their languages, lands, and nations.
Abo be bazzukulu ba Seemu, mu nnyumba zaabwe, ne mu nnimi zaabwe, ne mu bitundu byabwe ne mu mawanga gaabwe.
32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, by their generations, according to their nations. The nations divided from these in the earth after the flood.
Abo ze nnyumba za batabani ba Nuuwa ng’okuzaalibwa kwabwe bwe kwali, n’amawanga gaabwe; era okuva mu bano amawanga gonna mwe gaayalira ne gabuna ensi yonna oluvannyuma lw’amataba.
