Old/New Testament
10 Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah: Shem, Ham and Japheth (to whom sons were born after the Flood).
2 The sons of Japheth were 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 Also the sons of Javan: Elishah and Tarshish, Kittim and Dodanim.
5 Between these the isles of the Gentiles were divided in their lands (every man after his tongue, after their families, in their nations).
6 Moreover, the sons of Ham were Cush and Mizraim and Put and Canaan.
7 And the sons of Cush: Seba and Havilah and Sabtah and Raamah and Sabtechah. Also, the sons of Raamah were Sheba and Dedan.
8 And Cush begat Nimrod, who began to be mighty on the Earth.
9 He was a mighty hunter before the LORD. Therefore, it is said, “…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 came Assyria, and built Nineveh and the city Rehoboth and Calah,
12 also Resen (between Nineveh and Calah). This is a great city.
13 And Mizraim begat Ludim and Anamim and Lehabim and Naphtuhim,
14 also Pathrusim and Casluhim (out of whom came the Philistines) and Caphtorims.
15 Also, Canaan begat Sidon his firstborn, and Heth
16 and Jebusi and Emori and Girgashi
17 and Hivi and Arki and Sini
18 and Arvadi and Zemari and Hamathi. And afterward, the families of the Canaanites were scattered.
19 Then, the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon (as you come to Gerar, until Gaza, and as you go to Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboiim) all the way to Lasha.
20 These are the sons of Ham (according to their families, according to their tongues, in their countries, in their nations).
21 Also, to Shem (the father of all the sons of Eber and elder brother of Japheth) were children born.
22 The sons of Shem were Elam and Asshur and Arphaxad and Lud and Aram.
23 And the sons of Aram: Uz and Hul and Gether and Mash.
24 Also, Arphaxad begat Salah; and Salah begat Eber.
25 Also, two sons were born to Eber. The name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the Earth divided. And his brother’s name was Joktan.
26 Then, 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 you go up to Sephar, a mount of the east).
31 These are the sons of Shem (according to their families, according to their tongues in their countries and nations).
32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, among their people. And out of these were the nations divided on the Earth, after the Flood.
11 Then, the whole Earth was of one language and one speech.
2 And as they went from the east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they stayed there.
3 And they said to one another, “Come, let us make brick and burn it in the fire!” So, they had brick for stone; and they had slime instead of mortar.
4 Also, they said, “Go to! Let us build a city and a tower. Whose top may reach to the sky, so that we may get a name, lest we be scattered upon the whole Earth.”
5 But the LORD came down to see the city and tower which the sons of men built.
6 And the LORD said, “Behold, the people are one; and they all have one language. And this they begin to do; nor can they now be stopped from whatever they have imagined to do.
7 “Come on. Let us go down there and confound their language, so that no one perceives another’s speech.”
8 So the LORD scattered them from there upon all the Earth; and they stopped building the city.
9 Therefore, the name of it was called Babel, because there the LORD confounded the language of all the Earth. Then, from there the LORD scattered them upon all the Earth.
10 These are the generations of Shem. Shem was a hundred years old and begat Arphaxad, two years after the Flood.
11 And after he begat Arphaxad, Shem lived five hundred years and begat sons and daughters.
12 Also, Arphaxad lived thirty-five years and begat Salah.
13 And after he begat Salah, Arphaxad lived four hundred and three years and begat sons and daughters.
14 And Salah lived thirty years and begat Eber.
15 So, after he begat Eber, Salah lived four hundred and three years and begat sons and daughters.
16 Likewise, Eber lived thirty-four years and begat Peleg.
17 So, after he begat Peleg, Eber lived four hundred and thirty years and begat sons and daughters.
18 And Peleg lived thirty years and begat Reu.
19 And after he begat Reu, Peleg lived two hundred and nine years and begat sons and daughters.
20 Also Reu lived thirty-two years, and begat Serug.
21 So Reu lived, after he begat Serug, two hundred and seven years, and begat sons and daughters.
22 Moreover, Serug lived thirty years and begat Nahor.
23 And after he begat Nahor, Serug lived two hundred years and begat sons and daughters.
24 And Nahor lived twenty-nine years and begat Terah.
25 So, after he begat Terah, Nahor lived a hundred and nineteen years and begat sons and daughters.
26 So, Terah lived seventy years and begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
27 Now, these are the generations of Terah: Terah begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran begat Lot.
28 Then, Haran died before Terah, his father, in the land of his nativity (in Ur of the Chaldeans).
29 So, Abram and Nahor took wives. The name of Abram’s wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor’s wife was Milcah (the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah, and the father of Iscah).
30 But Sarai was barren and had no child.
31 Then Terah took Abram, his son, and Lot (the son of Haran, his son’s son), and Sarai (his daughter-in-law, his son Abram’s wife), and the departed together from Ur of the Chaldeans to go into the land of Canaan. And they came to Haran and dwelt there.
32 So, the days of Terah were two hundred and five years; and Terah died in Haran.
12 For the LORD had said to Abram, “Get out of your country, and from your kindred, and from your father’s house, to the land that I will show you.
2 “And I will make a great nation from you, and will bless you, and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing.
3 “I will also bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you; and in you shall all families of the Earth be blessed.”
4 So, Abram departed, just as the LORD instructed him; and Lot went with him. And Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed from Haran.
5 Then, Abram took Sarai, his wife, and Lot, his brother’s son, and all their substance that they possessed, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran, and they departed to go to the land of Canaan. And they came to the land of Canaan.
6 So, Abram passed through the land to the place of Shechem, and to the plain of Moreh (and the Canaanite was in the land then).
7 And the LORD appeared to Abram, and said, “To your seed will I give this land.” And there he built an altar to the LORD Who had appeared to him.
8 Afterward, leaving there for the mountain east of Bethel, he pitched his tent (having Bethel on the West side and Ai on the east). And there he built an altar to the LORD and called on the Name of the LORD.
9 Again, Abram went forth, going and journeying toward the south.
10 Then there came a famine in the land. Therefore, Abram went down into Egypt, to sojourn there; for there was a great famine in the land.
11 And when he drew near to enter into Egypt, he said to Sarai his wife, “Behold, now, I know that you are a fair woman to look upon.
12 “Therefore, it will happen that when the Egyptians see you, they will say, ‘She is his wife.’ So, they will kill me, but they will keep you alive.
13 “Say, I implore you, that you are my sister; so that I may fare well because of you, and that my life may be preserved by you.”
14 Now, when Abram had come into Egypt, the Egyptians looked at the woman (for she was very fair).
15 And the Princes of Pharaoh saw her and told Pharaoh about her. So, the woman was taken into Pharaoh’s house.
16 Who treated Abram well for her sake; and he had sheep and oxen and male donkeys, and menservants and maidservants and female donkeys and camels.
17 But the LORD plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues, because of Sarai, Abram’s wife.
18 Then Pharaoh called Abram, and said, “Why have you done this to me? Why did you not tell me that she was your wife?
19 “Why did you say, ‘She is my sister,’ so that I would take her to be my wife? Now, therefore, here is your wife. Take her and go your way.”
20 And Pharaoh gave men a commandment concerning him; and they sent him forth and his wife and all that he had.
4 Then Jesus was led up into the wilderness by the Spirit, to be tempted by the devil.
2 And after He had fasted forty days and forty nights, He was hungry.
3 Then the tempter came to Him, and said, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.”
4 But He, answering, said, “It is written, man shall not live by bread only, but by every Word that proceeds out of the Mouth of God.”
5 Then the devil took Him up into the Holy City and set Him on a pinnacle of the Temple,
6 and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, cast Yourself down. For it is written that ‘He will give His angels charge over you. And they shall lift you up with their hands, lest at any time you should dash your foot against a stone.’”
7 Jesus said to him, “It is written again, ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God.’”
8 Again, the devil took Him up into an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them,
9 and said to Him, “All these I will give You, if You will fall down, and worship me.”
10 Then Jesus said to him, “Get away, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, And Him only shall you serve.’”
11 Then the devil left Him. And behold, the angels came and ministered to Him.
12 And when Jesus had heard that John was committed to prison, he returned into Galilee.
13 And leaving Nazareth, He went and dwelt in Capernaum, which is near the sea, on the borders of Zebulun and Naphtali.
14 So that that which was spoken by Isaiah the Prophet might be fulfilled, which says,
15 “The land of Zebulun, and the land of Naphtali – by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan - Galilee of the Gentiles:
16 The people who sat in darkness, saw great light. And to those who sat in the region and shadow of death, light is risen up.”
17 From that time, Jesus began to preach, and to say, “Repent! For the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!”
18 And Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, saw two brothers - Simon (who was called Peter) and Andrew his brother - casting a net into the sea (for they were fishermen.)
19 And He said to them, “Follow Me. And I will make you fishers of men.”
20 And immediately, having left the nets, they followed Him.
21 And when He had gone forth from there, He saw two other brothers - James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother - in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. And He called them.
22 And without hesitation, they (leaving the ship and their father) followed Him.
23 So Jesus went all over Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.
24 And His fame spread throughout all Syria. And they brought to Him all sick people who were taken with diverse diseases and torments, and those who were possessed with demons, and lunatics, and those who had the palsy. And He healed them.
25 And great multitudes followed Him out of Galilee, and Decapolis, and Jerusalem, and Judea, and from beyond Jordan.
