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.

5 Se tout pitit ak pitit pitit Jafè yo sa ki zansèt tout moun k'ap viv nan zile yo, yo chak sou tè pa yo, yo chak ak lang pa yo. Yo t'ap viv ansanm, fanmi ak fanmi, nasyon ak nasyon.

8 Kouch te gen yon lòt pitit gason yo te rele: Nimwòd. Nimwòd sa a, se premye moun ki te gwo chèf sou latè.
Cush became the father of Nimrod. He began to be a mighty one in the earth.
9 Se te yon gwo chasè devan Seyè a. Se poutèt sa yo di. Gwo chasè devan Bondye tankou Nimwòd.
He was a mighty hunter before the LORD. Therefore it is said, “like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the LORD”.
10 Nan peyi kote li t'ap gouvènen an te gen lavil sa yo: Babèl, Erèk, Akad, Kalne nan peyi Chenea.
The beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
11 Apre sa, li kite peyi a, li ale lavil Asou. Men lavil li bati yo: Neniv, Reobòt-Ir, Kalak.
Out of that land he went into Assyria, and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah,
12 Lèfini, li bati lavil Rezèm ant Neniv ak Kalak. Kalak sa a te yon gwo lavil.

19 Lizyè tè moun Kanaran yo pati depi lavil Sidon, li mete tèt sou Gera jouk li rive Gaza. Apre sa, li vire sou Sodòm ak Gomò, Adma ak Seboyim jouk li rive Lecha.
The border of the Canaanites was from Sidon—as you go toward Gerar—to Gaza—as you go toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim—to Lasha.
20 Se tout pitit ak pitit pitit Kam yo sa, yo chak sou tè pa yo, yo chak ak lang yo. Yo t'ap viv ansanm, fanmi ak fanmi, nasyon ak nasyon.
