De nakomelingen van Noach
10 Dit zijn de nakomelingen van Sem, Cham en Jafet, de drie zonen van Noach, want na de watervloed werden hun zonen geboren. 2 De zonen van Jafet waren Gomer, Magog, Madai, Jawan, Tubal, Mesech en Tiras.
3 De zonen van Gomer waren Askenaz, Rifat en Togarma. 4 De zonen van Jawan waren Elisa, Tarsis, de Kittieten en de Dodanieten. 5 Hun nakomelingen werden de zeevaarders die langs de kust wonen en ieder een eigen taal hebben.
6 De zonen van Cham waren Kus, Misraïm, Put en Kanaän. 7 De zonen van Kus waren Saba, Chawila, Sabta, Rama en Sabtecha. 8 De zonen van Rama waren Seba en Dedan. Een van de nakomelingen van Kus heette Nimrod. Hij werd de eerste machthebber op aarde. 9 Hij was een geweldig jager, door niemand overtroffen. De naam Nimrod werd een begrip voor de mensen. Zij zeiden: ‘Hij is een Nimrod,’ waarmee dan werd bedoeld dat iemand een geweldenaar was. 10 De basis van zijn koninkrijk waren de steden Babel, Uruk, Akkad en Kalne in het land Sinear. 11,12 Van daaruit trok hij naar Assyrië en bouwde daar Ninevé, Rechobot-Ir, Kalach en Resen. Die laatste stad lag tussen Ninevé en Kalach en was de belangrijkste stad van het rijk.
13,14 Misraïm was de voorvader van de Ludieten, de Anamieten, de Lehabieten, de Naftuchieten, de Patrusieten, de Kasluchieten, waaruit de Filistijnen zijn voortgekomen en de Kretenzers.
15-19 Kanaäns oudste zoon heette Sidon en diens broer heette Chet. De volgende volken zijn afstammelingen van Kanaän: de Jebusieten, de Amorieten, de Girgasieten, de Chiwwieten, de Arkieten, de Sinieten, de Arwadieten, de Semarieten en de Hamatieten. De nakomelingen van Kanaän verspreidden zich van Sodom, Gomorra, Adma en Seboïm tot Lesa. 20 Al deze volken, die zich overal verspreidden en veel verschillende talen spraken, waren nakomelingen van Cham.
21 Eber was een afstammeling van Sem, de oudste broer van Jafet. 22 Hier volgen de zonen van Sem: Elam, Assur, Arpachsad, Lud en Aram. 23 De zonen van Aram waren Us, Chul, Geter en Mas. 24 De zoon van Arpachsad heette Selach en diens zoon heette Eber. 25 Eber kreeg twee zonen: Peleg (dat betekent Verdeeldheid, tijdens zijn leven verdeelde God de talen van de mensen) en Joktan. 26-30 Joktan was de vader van Almodad, Selef, Chasarmawet, Jerach, Hadoram, Uzal, Dikla, Obal, Abimaël, Seba, Ofir, Chawila en Jobab. De afstammelingen van Joktan leefden in het gebied tussen Mescha en het in het oosten gelegen gebergte van Sefar. 31 Al deze mensen waren afstammelingen van Sem, verdeeld per geslacht, taal, land en volk.
32 Dit was het geslachtsregister van Noach en zijn zonen. Door de geslachten heen verspreidden hun afstammelingen zich over de aarde en vormden zo de volken.
Genesis 10
King James Version
10 Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were sons born after the flood.
2 The sons of Japheth; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.
3 And the sons of Gomer; Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.
4 And the sons of Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.
5 By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations.
6 And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan.
7 And the sons of Cush; Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtechah: and the sons of Raamah; Sheba, and Dedan.
8 And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.
9 He was a mighty hunter before the Lord: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the Lord.
10 And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
11 Out of that land went forth Asshur, and builded Nineveh, and the city Rehoboth, and Calah,
12 And Resen between Nineveh and Calah: the same is a great city.
13 And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,
14 And Pathrusim, and Casluhim, (out of whom came Philistim,) and Caphtorim.
15 And Canaan begat Sidon his first born, and Heth,
16 And the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgasite,
17 And the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite,
18 And the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite: and afterward were the families of the Canaanites spread abroad.
19 And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as thou comest to Gerar, unto Gaza; as thou goest, unto Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, even unto Lasha.
20 These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their tongues, in their countries, and in their nations.
21 Unto Shem also, the father of all the children of Eber, the brother of Japheth the elder, even to him were children born.
22 The children of Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.
23 And the children of Aram; Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.
24 And Arphaxad begat Salah; and Salah begat Eber.
25 And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother's name was Joktan.
26 And Joktan begat Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah,
27 And Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah,
28 And Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba,
29 And Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab: all these were the sons of Joktan.
30 And their dwelling was from Mesha, as thou goest unto Sephar a mount of the east.
31 These are the sons of Shem, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, after their nations.
32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations: and by these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.
Genesis 10
New King James Version
Nations Descended from Noah(A)
10 Now this is the genealogy of the sons of Noah: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. (B)And sons were born to them after the flood.
2 (C)The sons of Japheth were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras. 3 The sons of Gomer were Ashkenaz, [a]Riphath, and Togarmah. 4 The sons of Javan were Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and [b]Dodanim. 5 From these (D)the coastland peoples of the Gentiles were separated into their lands, everyone according to his language, according to their families, into their nations.
6 (E)The sons of Ham were Cush, Mizraim, [c]Put, and Canaan. 7 The sons of Cush were Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabtechah; and the sons of Raamah were Sheba and Dedan.
8 Cush begot (F)Nimrod; he began to be a mighty one on the earth. 9 He was a mighty (G)hunter (H)before the Lord; therefore it is said, “Like Nimrod the mighty hunter before the Lord.” 10 (I)And the beginning of his kingdom was (J)Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar. 11 From that land he went (K)to Assyria and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah, 12 and Resen between Nineveh and Calah (that is the principal city).
13 Mizraim begot Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim, 14 Pathrusim, and Casluhim (L)(from whom came the Philistines and Caphtorim).
15 Canaan begot Sidon his firstborn, and (M)Heth; 16 (N)the Jebusite, the Amorite, and the Girgashite; 17 the Hivite, the Arkite, and the Sinite; 18 the Arvadite, the Zemarite, and the Hamathite. Afterward the families of the Canaanites were dispersed. 19 (O)And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon as you go toward Gerar, as far as Gaza; then as you go toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha. 20 These were the sons of Ham, according to their families, according to their languages, in their lands and in their nations.
21 And children were born also to Shem, the father of all the children of Eber, [d]the brother of Japheth the elder. 22 The (P)sons of Shem were Elam, Asshur, (Q)Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram. 23 The sons of Aram were Uz, Hul, Gether, and [e]Mash. 24 [f]Arphaxad begot (R)Salah, and Salah begot Eber. 25 (S)To Eber were born two sons: the name of one was [g]Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided; and his brother’s name was Joktan. 26 Joktan begot Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah, 27 Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah, 28 [h]Obal, Abimael, Sheba, 29 Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All these were the sons of Joktan. 30 And their dwelling place was from Mesha as you go toward Sephar, the mountain of the east. 31 These were the sons of Shem, according to their families, according to their languages, in their lands, according to their nations.
32 (T)These were the families of the sons of Noah, according to their generations, in their nations; (U)and from these the nations were divided on the earth after the flood.

La Biblia de las Américas
10 (A)Estas son las generaciones de Sem, Cam y Jafet, hijos de Noé, a quienes les nacieron hijos después del diluvio:
2 Los hijos de Jafet(B): Gomer, Magog(C), Madai(D), Javán, Tubal(E), Mesec(F) y Tiras. 3 Los hijos de Gomer: Askenaz(G), Rifat[a] y Togarmá(H). 4 Los hijos de Javán: Elisa, Tarsis(I), Quitim y Dodanim[b]. 5 De estos, las costas de las naciones se dividieron[c] en sus tierras, cada uno conforme a su lengua, según sus familias, en sus naciones.
6 Los hijos de Cam: Cus, Mizrayim, Fut y Canaán(J). 7 Los hijos de Cus: Seba(K), Havila, Sabta, Raama(L) y Sabteca, y los hijos de Raama: Seba y Dedán(M). 8 Y Cus engendró a Nimrod, que llegó a ser poderoso en la tierra. 9 Él fue un poderoso cazador delante del Señor; por tanto se dice: Como Nimrod, poderoso cazador delante del Señor. 10 Y el comienzo de su reino fue Babel[d](N), Erec, Acab y Calne, en la tierra de Sinar(O). 11 De aquella tierra salió hacia Asiria(P) y edificó Nínive, Rehobot Ir, Cala, 12 y Resén, entre Nínive y Cala; aquella es la gran ciudad. 13 Y Mizrayim engendró a Ludim(Q), a Anamim, a Lehabim, a Naftuhim, 14 a Patrusim, a Casluhim(R) (de donde salieron los filisteos) y a Caftorim.
15 Canaán engendró a Sidón(S) su primogénito, y a Het(T), 16 y al jebuseo, al amorreo, al gergeseo(U), 17 al heveo, al araceo, al sineo, 18 al arvadeo, al zemareo y al hamateo. Y después las familias de los cananeos fueron esparcidas. 19 El territorio de los cananeos(V) se extendía[e] desde Sidón, rumbo a[f] Gerar, hasta Gaza; y rumbo a[g] Sodoma, Gomorra, Adma y Zeboim(W), hasta Lasa. 20 Estos son los hijos de Cam, según sus familias, según sus lenguas, por sus tierras, por sus naciones.
21 También le nacieron hijos a Sem, padre de todos los hijos de Heber, y hermano mayor de Jafet[h]. 22 Los hijos de Sem(X): Elam(Y), Asur, Arfaxad(Z), Lud(AA) y Aram. 23 Los hijos de Aram: Uz(AB), Hul, Geter y Mas[i]. 24 Arfaxad engendró a Sala(AC), y Sala engendró a Heber. 25 Y a Heber le nacieron dos hijos: el nombre de uno fue Peleg[j], porque en sus días fue repartida[k] la tierra, y el nombre de su hermano, Joctán(AD). 26 Joctán engendró a Almodad, a Selef, a Hazar-mavet, a Jera, 27 a Adoram, a Uzal, a Dicla, 28 a Obal[l], a Abimael, a Seba, 29 a Ofir, a Havila y a Jobab; todos estos fueron hijos de Joctán. 30 Y su territorio se extendía[m] desde Mesa rumbo a[n] Sefar, la región montañosa del oriente. 31 Estos son los hijos de Sem, según sus familias, según sus lenguas, por sus tierras, conforme a sus naciones.
32 Estas son las familias de los hijos de Noé según sus genealogías, por sus naciones; y de ellos se propagaron[o] las naciones sobre la tierra(AE) después del diluvio.
