< בראשית 10 >

וְאֵלֶּה תּוֹלְדֹת בְּנֵי־נֹחַ שֵׁם חָם וָיָפֶת וַיִּוָּלְדוּ לָהֶם בָּנִים אַחַר הַמַּבּֽוּל׃ 1
Now these [are] the generations of the sons of Noe, Sem, Cham, Japheth; and sons were born to them after the flood.
בְּנֵי יֶפֶת גֹּמֶר וּמָגוֹג וּמָדַי וְיָוָן וְתֻבָל וּמֶשֶׁךְ וְתִירָֽס׃ 2
The sons of Japheth, Gamer, and Magog, and Madoi, and Jovan, and Elisa, and Thobel, and Mosoch, and Thiras.
וּבְנֵי גֹּמֶר אַשְׁכֲּנַז וְרִיפַת וְתֹגַרְמָֽה׃ 3
And the sons of Gamer, Aschanaz, and Riphath, and Thorgama.
וּבְנֵי יָוָן אֱלִישָׁה וְתַרְשִׁישׁ כִּתִּים וְדֹדָנִֽים׃ 4
And the sons of Jovan, Elisa, and Tharseis, Cetians, Rhodians.
מֵאֵלֶּה נִפְרְדוּ אִיֵּי הַגּוֹיִם בְּאַרְצֹתָם אִישׁ לִלְשֹׁנוֹ לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָם בְּגוֹיֵהֶֽם׃ 5
From these were the islands of the Gentiles divided in their land, each according to his tongue, in their tribes and in their nations.
וּבְנֵי חָם כּוּשׁ וּמִצְרַיִם וּפוּט וּכְנָֽעַן׃ 6
And the sons of Cham, Chus, and Mesrain, Phud, and Chanaan.
וּבְנֵי כוּשׁ סְבָא וֽ͏ַחֲוִילָה וְסַבְתָּה וְרַעְמָה וְסַבְתְּכָא וּבְנֵי רַעְמָה שְׁבָא וּדְדָֽן׃ 7
And the sons of Chus, Saba, and Evila, and Sabatha, and Rhegma, and Sabathaca. And the sons of Rhegma, Saba, and Dadan.
וְכוּשׁ יָלַד אֶת־נִמְרֹד הוּא הֵחֵל לֽ͏ִהְיוֹת גִּבֹּר בָּאָֽרֶץ׃ 8
And Chus begot Nebrod: he began to be a giant upon the earth.
הֽוּא־הָיָה גִבֹּֽר־צַיִד לִפְנֵי יְהוָה עַל־כֵּן יֵֽאָמַר כְּנִמְרֹד גִּבּוֹר צַיִד לִפְנֵי יְהוָֽה׃ 9
He was a giant hunter before the Lord God; therefore they say, As Nebrod the giant hunter before the Lord.
וַתְּהִי רֵאשִׁית מַמְלַכְתּוֹ בָּבֶל וְאֶרֶךְ וְאַכַּד וְכַלְנֵה בְּאֶרֶץ שִׁנְעָֽר׃ 10
And the beginning of his kingdom was Babylon, and Orech, and Archad, and Chalanne, in the land of Senaar.
מִן־הָאָרֶץ הַהִוא יָצָא אַשּׁוּר וַיִּבֶן אֶת־נִינְוֵה וְאֶת־רְחֹבֹת עִיר וְאֶת־כָּֽלַח׃ 11
Out of that land came Assur, and built Ninevi, and the city Rhooboth, and Chalach,
וְֽאֶת־רֶסֶן בֵּין נִֽינְוֵה וּבֵין כָּלַח הִוא הָעִיר הַגְּדֹלָֽה׃ 12
and Dase between Ninevi and Chalach: this is the great city.
וּמִצְרַיִם יָלַד אֶת־לוּדִים וְאֶת־עֲנָמִים וְאֶת־לְהָבִים וְאֶת־נַפְתֻּחִֽים׃ 13
And Mesrain begot the Ludiim, and the Nephthalim, and the Enemetiim, and the Labiim,
וְֽאֶת־פַּתְרֻסִים וְאֶת־כַּסְלֻחִים אֲשֶׁר יָצְאוּ מִשָּׁם פְּלִשְׁתִּים וְאֶת־כַּפְתֹּרִֽים׃ 14
and the Patrosoniim, and the Chasmoniim (whence came forth Phylistiim) and the Gaphthoriim.
וּכְנַעַן יָלַד אֶת־צִידֹן בְּכֹרוֹ וְאֶת־חֵֽת׃ 15
And Chanaan begot Sidon his firstborn, and the Chettite,
וְאֶת־הַיְבוּסִי וְאֶת־הָאֱמֹרִי וְאֵת הַגִּרְגָּשִֽׁי׃ 16
and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgashite,
וְאֶת־הֽ͏ַחִוִּי וְאֶת־הֽ͏ַעַרְקִי וְאֶת־הַסִּינִֽי׃ 17
and the Evite, and the Arukite, and the Asennite,
וְאֶת־הֽ͏ָאַרְוָדִי וְאֶת־הַצְּמָרִי וְאֶת־הֽ͏ַחֲמָתִי וְאַחַר נָפֹצוּ מִשְׁפְּחוֹת הֽ͏ַכְּנַעֲנִֽי׃ 18
and the Aradian, and the Samarean, and the Amathite; and after this the tribes of the Chananites were dispersed.
וֽ͏ַיְהִי גְּבוּל הֽ͏ַכְּנַעֲנִי מִצִּידֹן בֹּאֲכָה גְרָרָה עַד־עַזָּה בֹּאֲכָה סְדֹמָה וַעֲמֹרָה וְאַדְמָה וּצְבֹיִם עַד־לָֽשַׁע׃ 19
And the boundaries of the Chananites were from Sidon till one comes to Gerara and Gaza, till one comes to Sodom and Gomorrha, Adama and Seboim, as far as Dasa.
אֵלֶּה בְנֵי־חָם לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָם לִלְשֹֽׁנֹתָם בְּאַרְצֹתָם בְּגוֹיֵהֶֽם׃ 20
There [were] the sons of Cham in their tribes according to their tongues, in their countries, and in their nations.
וּלְשֵׁם יֻלַּד גַּם־הוּא אֲבִי כָּל־בְּנֵי־עֵבֶר אֲחִי יֶפֶת הַגָּדֽוֹל׃ 21
And to Sem himself also were children born, the father of all the sons of Heber, the brother of Japheth the elder.
בְּנֵי שֵׁם עֵילָם וְאַשּׁוּר וְאַרְפַּכְשַׁד וְלוּד וֽ͏ַאֲרָֽם׃ 22

And Arphaxad begot Cainan, and Cainan begot Sala. And Sala begot Heber.
וּלְעֵבֶר יֻלַּד שְׁנֵי בָנִים שֵׁם הֽ͏ָאֶחָד פֶּלֶג כִּי בְיָמָיו נִפְלְגָה הָאָרֶץ וְשֵׁם אָחִיו יָקְטָֽן׃ 25
And to Heber were born two sons, the name of the one, Phaleg, because in his days the earth was divided, and the name of his brother Jektan.
וְיָקְטָן יָלַד אֶת־אַלְמוֹדָד וְאֶת־שָׁלֶף וְאֶת־חֲצַרְמָוֶת וְאֶת־יָֽרַח׃ 26
And Jektan begot Elmodad, and Saleth, and Sarmoth, and Jarach,
וְאֶת־הֲדוֹרָם וְאֶת־אוּזָל וְאֶת־דִּקְלָֽה׃ 27
and Odorrha, and Aibel, and Decla,

וְאֶת־אוֹפִר וְאֶת־חֲוִילָה וְאֶת־יוֹבָב כָּל־אֵלֶּה בְּנֵי יָקְטָֽן׃ 29
and Uphir, and Evila, and Jobab, all these were the sons of Jektan.
וֽ͏ַיְהִי מוֹשָׁבָם מִמֵּשָׁא בֹּאֲכָה סְפָרָה הַר הַקֶּֽדֶם׃ 30
And their dwelling was from Masse, till one comes to Saphera, a mountain of the east.
אֵלֶּה בְנֵי־שֵׁם לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָם לִלְשֹׁנֹתָם בְּאַרְצֹתָם לְגוֹיֵהֶֽם׃ 31
These were the sons of Sem in their tribes, according to their tongues, in their countries, and in their nations.
אֵלֶּה מִשְׁפְּחֹת בְּנֵי־נֹחַ לְתוֹלְדֹתָם בְּגוֹיֵהֶם וּמֵאֵלֶּה נִפְרְדוּ הַגּוֹיִם בָּאָרֶץ אַחַר הַמַּבּֽוּל׃ 32
These are the tribes of the sons of Noe, according to their generations, according to their nations: of them were the islands of the Gentiles scattered over the earth after the flood.
