1 Chronicles 1:8-16

The Voice

⁸ Three sons of Ham fathered the nations south of Israel. They were Cush (the Ethiopians), Mizraim (the Egyptians), and Put (the northern Africans). Noah condemned Ham’s fourth son, Canaan, whose descendants we conquered. ⁹ The sons of Cush were Seba, Havilah, Sabta, Raama, and Sabteca; the sons of Raama were Sheba and Dedan. ¹⁰ Cush fathered Nimrod (the first hero on earth). ¹¹ Mizraim fathered the people of Lud, Anam, Lehab, Naphtuh, ¹² Pathrus, Casluh (from whom the Philistines descended), and Caphtor. ¹³ Canaan was the forefather of our eastern neighbors: Sidon (his first son), Heth, ¹⁴ the Jebusites, the Amorites, the Girgashites, ¹⁵ the Hivites, the Arkites, the Sinites, ¹⁶ the Arvadites, the Zemarites, and the Hamathites.
