Genesis 10:1-32 NASB

[1] 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] The sons of Japheth were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras. [3] The sons of Gomer were Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah. [4] The sons of Javan were Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim. [5] From these the people of the coastlands of the nations were separated into their lands, every one according to his language, according to their families, into their nations. [6] The sons of Ham were Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan. [7] The sons of Cush were Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca; and the sons of Raamah were Sheba and Dedan. [8] Now Cush fathered Nimrod; he 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 Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar. [11] From that land he went to Assyria, and built Nineveh, Rehoboth-Ir, Calah, [12] and Resen between Nineveh and Calah; that is the great city. [13] Mizraim fathered Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim, [14] Pathrusim, Casluhim (from whom came the Philistines), and Caphtorim. [15] Canaan fathered Sidon, his firstborn, and Heth, [16] 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] The territory of the Canaanite extended from Sidon going toward Gerar, as far as Gaza; and going toward 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] The sons of Shem were Elam, Asshur, Arpachshad, Lud, and Aram. [23] The sons of Aram were Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash. [24] Arpachshad fathered Shelah; and Shelah fathered Eber. [25] Two sons were born to Eber; the name of the one was 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] Obal, Abimael, Sheba, [29] Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab; all of these were the sons of Joktan. [30] Now their settlement extended from Mesha 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 out of these the nations were separated on the earth after the flood.
