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.

Descendants of Noah
10 Now these are the records of the generations of the sons of Noah: Shem, Ham, and Japheth; and sons were born to them after the flood.
2 (A)The sons of Japheth were (B)Gomer, Magog, (C)Madai, (D)Javan, Tubal, (E)Meshech, and Tiras. 3 The sons of Gomer were (F)Ashkenaz, [a]Riphath, and (G)Togarmah. 4 The sons of Javan were Elishah, (H)Tarshish, Kittim, and [b]Dodanim. 5 From these the people of the coastlands of the nations [c]were separated into their lands, every one according to his language, according to their families, into their nations.
6 (I)The sons of Ham were Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan. 7 The sons of Cush were (J)Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, (K)Raamah, and Sabteca; and the sons of Raamah were (L)Sheba and (M)Dedan. 8 Now Cush fathered Nimrod; he [d]became a mighty one on the earth. 9 He was a mighty hunter before the Lord; therefore it is said, “Like Nimrod a mighty hunter before the Lord.” 10 And the beginning of his kingdom was [e](N)Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of (O)Shinar. 11 From that land he went (P)to Assyria, and built Nineveh, Rehoboth-Ir, Calah, 12 and Resen between Nineveh and Calah; that is the great city. 13 Mizraim fathered (Q)Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim, 14 (R)Pathrusim, Casluhim (from whom came the Philistines), and Caphtorim.
15 Canaan fathered (S)Sidon, his firstborn, and (T)Heth, 16 (U)the Jebusite, the Amorite, the Girgashite, 17 the Hivite, the Arkite, the Sinite, 18 the Arvadite, the Zemarite, and the Hamathite; and afterward the families of the Canaanite were spread abroad. 19 (V)The territory of the Canaanite [f]extended from Sidon [g]going toward Gerar, as far as Gaza; and [h]going toward (W)Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha. 20 These are the sons of Ham, according to their families, according to their languages, by their lands, and by their nations.
21 Also to Shem, the father of all the children of Eber, and the older brother of Japheth, children were born. 22 (X)The sons of Shem were (Y)Elam, Asshur, (Z)Arpachshad, (AA)Lud, and Aram. 23 The sons of Aram were (AB)Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash. 24 Arpachshad fathered (AC)Shelah; and Shelah fathered Eber. 25 (AD)Two sons were born to Eber; the name of the one was [i]Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided; and his brother’s name was Joktan. 26 Joktan fathered Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah, 27 Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah, 28 [j]Obal, Abimael, Sheba, 29 Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab; all of these were the sons of Joktan. 30 Now their [k]settlement [l]extended from Mesha [m]going toward Sephar, the hill country of the east. 31 These are the sons of Shem, according to their families, according to their languages, by their lands, and according to their nations.
32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, according to their descendants, by their nations; and (AE)out of these the nations were separated on the earth after the flood.

The 14 Descendants of Japheth(A)
10 This is the account of Noah’s sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and their descendants. Shem, Ham and Japheth had children after the flood.
2 Japheth’s descendants were
Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.
3 Gomer’s descendants were
Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.
4 Javan’s descendants were
the people from Elishah, Tarshish, Cyprus, and Rhodes.[a]
5 From these descendants the people of the coastlands spread into their own countries. Each nation had its own language and families.
The 30 Descendants of Ham(B)
6 Ham’s descendants were
Cush, Egypt, Put, and Canaan.
7 Cush’s descendants were
Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah,
and Sabteca.
Raamah’s descendants were
Sheba and Dedan.
8 Cush was the father of Nimrod, the first mighty warrior on the earth. 9 He was a mighty hunter whom Yahweh blessed. That’s why people used to say, “He’s like Nimrod, a mighty hunter whom Yahweh blessed.” 10 The first cities in his kingdom were Babylon, Erech, Accad, and Calneh in Shinar [Babylonia]. 11 He went from that land to Assyria and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah, 12 and Resen, the great city between Nineveh and Calah.
13 Egypt was the ancestor of
the Ludites, Anamites, Lehabites, Naphtuhites, 14 Pathrusites, Casluhites (from whom the Philistines came), and the Caphtorites.
15 Canaan was the father of
Sidon his firstborn, then Heth, 16 also the Jebusites, the Amorites, the Girgashites, 17 the Hivites, the Arkites, the Sinites, 18 the Arvadites, the Zemarites, and the Hamathites.
Later the Canaanite families scattered. 19 The border of the Canaanites extended from Sidon toward Gerar as far as Gaza and then toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim as far as Lasha.
20 These were Ham’s descendants by families and languages within their countries and nations.
The 26 Descendants of Shem(C)
21 Shem, Japheth’s older brother, also had children. Shem was the ancestor of all the sons of Eber.
22 Shem’s descendants were
Elam, Asshur, Arpachshad, Lud, and Aram.
23 Aram’s descendants were
Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.
24 Arpachshad was the father of Shelah,
and Shelah was the father of Eber.
25 Two sons were born to Eber.
The name of the one was Peleg [Division], because in his day the earth was divided.
His brother’s name was Joktan.
26 Joktan was the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah, 27 Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah, 28 Obal, Abimael, Sheba, 29 Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. These were Joktan’s sons. 30 The region where they lived extended from Mesha toward Sephar in the eastern mountains.
31 These were Shem’s descendants by families and languages within their countries according to their nations.
32 These were the families of Noah’s sons listed by their genealogies, nation by nation. From these descendants the nations spread over the earth after the flood.

Las naciones de la tierra(A)(B)
10 Esta es la lista de los descendientes de Sem, Cam y Jafet, hijos de Noé, quienes después del diluvio tuvieron sus propios hijos.
2 Los hijos[a] de Jafet:
Gómer, Magog, Maday, Javán, Tubal, Mésec y Tirás.
3 Hijos de Gómer:
Asquenaz, Rifat y Togarma.
4 Hijos de Javán:
Elisá, Tarsis, Quitín y Rodanín.[b] 5 Algunos de ellos se esparcieron por las costas. Formaron naciones y clanes en sus respectivos territorios y con sus propios idiomas.
6 Hijos de Cam:
Cus, Misrayin, Fut y Canaán.
7 Hijos de Cus:
Seba, Javilá, Sabtá, Ragama y Sabteca.
Hijos de Ragama:
Sabá y Dedán.
8 Cus fue el padre de Nimrod, conocido como el primer gran guerrero en la tierra, 9 quien llegó a ser un valiente cazador ante el Señor. Por eso se dice: «Como Nimrod, valiente cazador ante el Señor». 10 Las principales ciudades de su reino fueron Babel, Érec, Acad y Calné, en la región de Sinar.[c] 11 Desde esa región Nimrod salió hacia Asiria, donde construyó[d] las ciudades de Nínive, Rejobot Ir,[e] Cala 12 y Resén, la gran ciudad que está entre Nínive y Cala.
13 Misrayin fue el antepasado de
los ludeos, los anameos, los leabitas, los naftuitas, 14 los patruseos, los caslujitas —de quienes descienden los filisteos— y los caftoritas.
15 Canaán fue el padre de
Sidón, su primogénito, y de Het, 16 y el antepasado de los jebuseos, los amorreos, los gergeseos, 17 los heveos, los araceos, los sineos, 18 los arvadeos, los zemareos y los jamatitas.
Luego, estos clanes cananeos se dispersaron, 19 y su territorio se extendió desde Sidón hasta Guerar y Gaza, y en dirección de Sodoma, Gomorra, Admá y Zeboyín, hasta Lasa.
20 Estos fueron los descendientes de Cam, según sus clanes e idiomas, territorios y naciones.
21 Sem, antepasado de todos los hijos de Éber y hermano mayor de[f] Jafet, también tuvo hijos.
22 Hijos de Sem:
Elam, Asur, Arfaxad, Lud y Aram.
23 Hijos de Aram:
Uz, Hul, Guéter y Mas.
24 Arfaxad fue el padre de Selaj.
Selaj fue el padre de Éber.
25 Éber tuvo dos hijos:
El primero se llamó Péleg[g] porque en su tiempo se dividió la tierra; su hermano se llamó Joctán.
26 Joctán fue el padre de
Almodad, Sélef, Jazar Mávet, Yeraj, 27 Hadorán, Uzal, Diclá, 28 Obal, Abimael, Sabá, 29 Ofir, Javilá y Jobab. Todos estos fueron hijos de Joctán.
30 Ellos vivieron en la región que va desde Mesá hasta Sefar, en la región montañosa oriental.
31 Estos fueron los hijos de Sem, según sus clanes y sus idiomas, sus territorios y naciones.
32 Estos son los clanes de los hijos de Noé, según sus genealogías y sus naciones. A partir de estos clanes, las naciones se extendieron sobre la tierra después del diluvio.
