Genesisy 10
1 Ary izao no taranaky ny zanakalahin’ i Noa, dia Sema sy Hama ary Jafeta: Samy niteraka zazalahy avy izy taorian’ ny safo-drano.
These are the generations of the sons of Noah: Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and of the sons who were born to them after the great flood.
2 Ny zanakalahin’ i Jafeta dia Gomera sy Magoga sy Maday sy Javana sy Tobala sy Maseka ary Tirasa.
The sons of Japheth were Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.
3 Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Gomera dia Askenaza sy Rifata ary Togarma.
And then the sons of Gomer were Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.
4 Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Javana dia Elisaha sy Tarsisy sy ny Kitima sy ny Dodanita.
And the sons of Javan were Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Rodanim.
5 Avy tamin’ ireo no niavakavahan’ ny nosin’ ny firenena tany amin’ ny taniny, dia samy araka ny fiteniny avy, araka ny mpianakaviny avy, tamin’ ny fireneny avy.
The islands of the Gentiles were divided by these into their regions, each one according to his tongue, and their families in their nations.
6 Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Hama dia Kosy sy Mizraima sy Pota ary Kanana.
And the Sons of Ham were Cush, and Mizraim, and Put, and Canaan.
7 Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Kosy dia Seba sy Havila sy Sabta sy Ragama ary Sabteka; ary ny zanakalahin’ i Ragama dia Seba sy Dedana.
And the sons of Cush were Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabteca. The sons of Raamah were Sheba and Dadan.
8 Ary Kosy niteraka an’ i Nimroda; izy no voalohany izay tonga olona mahery tambonin’ ny tany.
And then Cush conceived Nimrod; he began to be powerful on the earth.
9 Izy dia mpihaza mahery teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, ka izany no nanaovan’ ny olona hoe: Tahaka an’ i Nimroda, mpihaza mahery eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah.
And he was an able hunter before the Lord. From this, a proverb came forth: ‘Just like Nimrod, an able hunter before the Lord.’
10 Ary ny niandohan’ ny fanjakany dia Babela sy Ereka sy Akada ary Kalne tany amin’ ny tany Sinara.
And so, the beginning of his kingdom was Babylon, and Erech, and Accad, and Chalanne, in the land of Shinar.
11 Ary nivoaka avy tamin’ izany tany izany izy ka nankany Asyria, dia nanorina an’ i Ninive mbamin’ i Rehobot-ira sy Kala
From that land, Assur came forth, and he built Nineveh, and the streets of the city, and Calah,
12 ary Resena teo anelanelan’ i Ninive sy Kala, dia ilay tanàna lehibe izany.
and also Resen, between Nineveh and Calah. This is a great city.
13 Ary Mizraima niteraka ny Lodita sy ny Anamita sy ny Lehabita sy ny Naftohita
And truly, Mizraim conceived Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, Naphtuhim,
14 sy ny Patrosita sy ny Kaslohita izay nihavian’ ny Filistina ary ny Kaftorita.
and Pathrusim, and Casluhim, from whom came forth the Philistines and the Caphtorim.
15 Ary Kanana niteraka an’ i Sidona lahimatoany sy Heta,
Then Canaan conceived Sidon his firstborn, the Hittite,
16 ary ny Jebosita, sy ny Amorita sy ny Girgasita
and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, the Girgashite,
17 sy ny Hivita sy ny Arkita sy ny Sinita
the Hivite, and the Arkite: the Sinite,
18 sy ny Arvadita sy ny Zemarita ary ny Hamatita; ary nony taoriana dia niely ny firenen’ ny Kananita.
and the Arvadian, the Samarite, and the Hamathite. And after this, the peoples of the Canaanites became widespread.
19 Ary ny fari-tanin’ ny Kananita dia hatrany Sidona ka hatrany Gaza ao akaikin’ i Gerara, ka hatrany Lesa ao akaikin’ i Sodoma sy Gomora sy Adma ary Zeboïma.
And the borders of Canaan went, as one travels, from Sidon to Gerar, even to Gaza, until one enters Sodom and Gomorrah, and from Admah and Zeboiim, even to Lesa.
20 Ireo no zanak’ i Hama, araka ny mpianakaviny, araka ny fiteniny, amin’ ny taniny, amin’ ny fireneny.
These are the sons of Ham in their kindred, and tongues, and generations, and lands, and nations.
21 Dia niteraka koa Sema, rain’ ny zanak’ i Ebera rehetra rahalahin’ i Jafeta, izay zokiny.
Likewise, from Shem, the father of all the sons of Heber, the elder brother of Japheth, sons were born.
22 Ny zanakalahin’ i Sema dia Elama sy Asyra sy Arpaksada sy Loda ary Arama.
The sons of Shem were Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.
23 Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Arama dia Oza sy Hola sy Gatera ary Masy.
The sons of Aram were Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.
24 Ary Arpaksada niteraka an’ i Sela; ary Sela niteraka an’ i Ebera.
But truly, Arphaxad conceived Shelah, from whom was born Eber.
25 Ary Ebera niteraka roa lahy: ny anaran’ ny iray natao hoe Palega, satria tamin’ ny androny no nizarana ny tany; ary Joktana no anaran’ ny rahalahiny.
And to Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth became divided, and his brother’s name was Joktan.
26 Ary Joktana niteraka an’ i Almodada sy Salefa sy Hazarmaveta sy Jera
This Joktan conceived Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, Jerah
27 sy Hadorama sy Ozala sy Dikla
and Hadoram, and Uzal and Diklah,
28 sy Obala sy Abimaela sy Sheba
and Obal and Abimael, Sheba
29 sy Ofira sy Havila ary Jobaba; ireo rehetra ireo no zanakalahin’ i Joktana.
and Ophir, and Havilah and Jobab. All these were the sons of Joktan.
30 Ary ny fonenan’ ireo dia hatrany Mesa ao akaikin’ i Sefara, tendrombohitra atsinanana.
And their habitation extended from Messa, as one sojourns, even to Sephar, a mountain in the east.
31 Ireo no zanak’ i Sema, araka ny mpianakaviny, araka ny fiteniny, amin’ ny taniny, araka ny fireneny.
These are the sons of Shem according to their kindred, and tongues, and the regions within their nations.
32 Ireo no mpianakavin’ ny zanak’ i Noa, araka ny taranany, amin’ ny fireneny; ary avy tamin’ ireo no niavakavahan’ ny firenena tambonin’ ny tany taorian’ ny safo-drano.
These are the families of Noah, according to their peoples and nations. The nations became divided according to these, on the earth after the great flood.
