3:1 Now 1 the serpent 2 was more shrewd 3
than any of the wild animals 4 that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Is it really true that 5 God 6 said, ‘You must not eat from any tree of the orchard’?” 7
10:1 This is the account 8 of Noah’s sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons 9 were born 10 to them after the flood.
10:2 The sons of Japheth 11 were Gomer, 12 Magog, 13 Madai, 14 Javan, 15 Tubal, 16 Meshech, 17 and Tiras. 18 10:3 The sons of Gomer were 19 Askenaz, 20 Riphath, 21 and Togarmah. 22 10:4 The sons of Javan were Elishah, 23 Tarshish, 24 the Kittim, 25 and the Dodanim. 26 10:5 From these the coastlands of the nations were separated into their lands, every one according to its language, according to their families, by their nations.
10:6 The sons of Ham were Cush, 27 Mizraim, 28 Put, 29 and Canaan. 30 10:7 The sons of Cush were Seba, 31 Havilah, 32 Sabtah, 33 Raamah, 34 and Sabteca. 35 The sons of Raamah were Sheba 36 and Dedan. 37
10:8 Cush was the father of 38 Nimrod; he began to be a valiant warrior on the earth. 10:9 He was a mighty hunter 39 before the Lord. 40 (That is why it is said, “Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the Lord.”) 10:10 The primary regions 41 of his kingdom were Babel, 42 Erech, 43 Akkad, 44 and Calneh 45 in the land of Shinar. 46 10:11 From that land he went 47 to Assyria, 48 where he built Nineveh, 49 Rehoboth-Ir, 50 Calah, 51 10:12 and Resen, which is between Nineveh and the great city Calah. 52
10:13 Mizraim 53 was the father of 54 the Ludites, 55 Anamites, 56 Lehabites, 57 Naphtuhites, 58 10:14 Pathrusites, 59 Casluhites 60 (from whom the Philistines came), 61 and Caphtorites. 62
10:15 Canaan was the father of 63 Sidon his firstborn, 64 Heth, 65 10:16 the Jebusites, 66 Amorites, 67 Girgashites, 68 10:17 Hivites, 69 Arkites, 70 Sinites, 71 10:18 Arvadites, 72 Zemarites, 73 and Hamathites. 74 Eventually the families of the Canaanites were scattered 10:19 and the borders of Canaan extended 75 from Sidon 76 all the way to 77 Gerar as far as Gaza, and all the way to 78 Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha. 10:20 These are the sons of Ham, according to their families, according to their languages, by their lands, and by their nations.
10:21 And sons were also born 79 to Shem (the older brother of Japheth), 80 the father of all the sons of Eber.
10:22 The sons of Shem were Elam, 81 Asshur, 82 Arphaxad, 83 Lud, 84 and Aram. 85 10:23 The sons of Aram were Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash. 86 10:24 Arphaxad was the father of 87 Shelah, 88 and Shelah was the father of Eber. 89 10:25 Two sons were born to Eber: One was named Peleg because in his days the earth was divided, 90 and his brother’s name was Joktan. 10:26 Joktan was the father of 91 Almodad, 92 Sheleph, 93 Hazarmaveth, 94 Jerah, 95 10:27 Hadoram, Uzal, 96 Diklah, 97 10:28 Obal, 98 Abimael, 99 Sheba, 100 10:29 Ophir, 101 Havilah, 102 and Jobab. All these were sons of Joktan. 10:30 Their dwelling place was from Mesha all the way to 103 Sephar in the eastern hills. 10:31 These are the sons of Shem according to their families, according to their languages, by their lands, and according to their nations.
10:32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, according to their genealogies, by their nations, and from these the nations spread 104 over the earth after the flood.
