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.
Eyinom ne Noa mmabarima: Wɔne Sem, Ham ne Yafet asefo. Wɔwowoo mmabarima nsuyiri no akyi.

8 Cush became the father of Nimrod. He began to be a mighty one in the earth.
Kus woo Nimrod. Na Nimrod bɛyɛɛ ɔkofo kɛse wɔ asase so.
9 He was a mighty hunter before the LORD. Therefore it is said, “like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the LORD”.
Na ɔyɛ ɔbɔmmɔfo kɛse a Awurade ahyira no, na wɔbɔ ne din ka asɛm. Na obiara a ɔyɛ akokodurusɛm no, wɔde no toto Nimrod a na ɔyɛ ɔbɔmmɔfo kɛse a Awurade ahyira no no ho.
10 The beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
Nʼahenni fii ase wɔ Babilonia, Erek, Akad ne Kalne a ne nyinaa wɔ Sinear asase so.
11 Out of that land he went into Assyria, and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah,
Ofii saa asase no so trɛw nʼahenni mu kɔɔ Asiria, kɔkyekyeree Ninewe. Rehobot-Ir, Kala ne

Arwadfo, Semarifo ne Hematifo. Akyiri no, Kanaanfo mmusua no petee.
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.
Kanaan nsase ahye trɛw fii Sidon koduu Gerar de kosii Gasa koduu Sodom ne Gomora, Adma, Seboim de kosi Lasa.
20 These are the sons of Ham, after their families, according to their languages, in their lands and their nations.
Eyinom ne Ham asefo a wɔn mmusuakuw, wɔn kasa, wɔn nsase ne wɔn aman da wɔn adi.
21 Children were also born to Shem (the elder brother of Japheth), the father of all the children of Eber.

Na Arfaksad woo Sela, na Sela woo Eber.
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.
Eber woo mmabarima baanu. Wɔtoo ɔbaako din Peleg a ase kyerɛ Nkyekyɛmu, efisɛ nʼawobere mu na kasa ahorow nti, nnipa a wɔwɔ asase so mu kyekyɛe ma wɔhwetee. Na wɔtoo ne nua a ɔka ne ho no din Yoktan.

30 Their dwelling extended from Mesha, as you go towards Sephar, the mountain of the east.
Asase a wɔte so no trɛw fi Mesa kosi Sefar, ɔmantam a ɛda bepɔw so wɔ apuei fam no.
31 These are the sons of Shem, by their families, according to their languages, lands, and nations.
Eyinom ne Sem mmabarima, sɛnea wɔn mmusua ne wɔn kasa, wɔn nsase ne wɔn amanaman te no.
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.
