Jenèz 10
1 Apre gwo inondasyon an, pitit Noe yo, Sèm, Kam ak Jafè, te fè pitit. Men non pitit gason yo te fè.
And these [are] the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and sons are born to them after the flood.
2 Men pitit gason Jafè yo: Se te Gomè, Magòg, Madayi, Javan, Toubal, Mechèk ak Tiras.
Sons of Japheth [are] Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.
3 Gomè te fè twa pitit gason. Achkenaz, Rifat ak Togama.
And sons of Gomer [are] Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.
4 Se Javan ki te papa Elicha, Tasis, Kitim ak Wodanim.
And sons of Javan [are] Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.
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.
By these the islands of the nations have been parted in their lands, each by his tongue, by their families, in their nations.
6 Men pitit gason Kam yo. Se te Kouch, Mizrayim, Pout ak Kanaran.
And sons of Ham [are] Cush, and Mitzraim, and Phut, and Canaan.
7 Kouch te fè senk pitit gason: Seba, Avila, Sabta, Rama ak Sabteka. Rama menm te gen de pitit gason: Seba ak Dedan.
And sons of Cush [are] Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtechah; and sons of Raamah [are] Sheba and Dedan.
8 Kouch te gen yon lòt pitit gason yo te rele: Nimwòd. Nimwòd sa a, se premye moun ki te gwo chèf sou latè.
And Cush has begotten Nimrod;
9 Se te yon gwo chasè devan Seyè a. Se poutèt sa yo di. Gwo chasè devan Bondye tankou Nimwòd.
he has begun to be a hero in the land; he has been a hero in hunting before YHWH; therefore it is said, “As Nimrod the hero [in] hunting before YHWH.”
10 Nan peyi kote li t'ap gouvènen an te gen lavil sa yo: Babèl, Erèk, Akad, Kalne nan peyi Chenea.
And the first part of his kingdom is Babel, and Erech, and 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.
from that land he has gone out to Asshur, and builds Nineveh, even the broad places of the city, and Calah,
12 Lèfini, li bati lavil Rezèm ant Neniv ak Kalak. Kalak sa a te yon gwo lavil.
and Resen, between Nineveh and Calah; it [is] the great city.
13 Mizrayim fè pitit. Se yo ki zansèt moun peyi Lidi, peyi Anan, peyi Leyab ak peyi Naftou,
And Mitzraim has begotten the Ludim, and the Anamim, and the Lehabim, and the Naphtuhim,
14 peyi Patwous, peyi Kaslou ak peyi Kaftò. Se nan peyi Kaslou sa a moun Filisti yo soti.
and the Pathrusim, and the Casluhim (from where have come out Philistim), and the Caphtorim.
15 Premye pitit Kanaran se te Sidon. Apre sa vin Et.
And Canaan has begotten Sidon his firstborn, and Heth,

and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgashite,

and the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite,
18 Avad, Zema, Amat. Apre sa tout fanmi Kanaran yo gaye.
and the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite; and afterward the families of the Canaanite have been scattered.
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.
And the border of the Canaanite is from Sidon, [in] your coming toward Gerar, to Gaza; [in] your coming toward Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, 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.
These [are] sons of Ham, by their families, by their tongues, in their lands, in their nations.
21 Sèm te gran frè Jafè. Li te gen anpil pitit tou. Se li ki te zansèt tout pitit Ebè yo.
As for Shem, father of all sons of Eber, the older brother of Japheth, he has also begotten.

24 Se Apachad ki te papa Chelak. Chelak menm te papa Ebè.
And Arphaxad has begotten Salah, and Salah has begotten Eber.

and Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab; all these [are] sons of Joktan;
30 Tè kote yo t'ap viv la te pran depi lavil Mecha, li moute kote lavil Sefa, jouk mòn ki bò kote solèy leve a.
and their dwelling is from Mesha, [in] your coming toward Sephar, a mountain of the east.
31 Se tout pitit ak pitit pitit Sèm yo sa, yo chak sou tè pa yo, yo chak ak lang pa yo. Yo t'ap viv ansanm, fanmi ak fanmi, nasyon ak nasyon.
These [are] sons of Shem, by their families, by their tongues, in their lands, by their nations.
32 tout moun sa yo se branch fanmi pitit Noe yo, dapre zansèt yo, nasyon pa nasyon. Apre gwo inondasyon an, tout nasyon ki sou latè soti nan pitit Noe yo.
These [are] families of the sons of Noah, by their generations, in their nations, and by these the nations have been parted in the earth after the flood.
