1This is the account of Noah’s sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, who also had sons after the flood. 1וְאֵ֙לֶּה֙ תּוֹלְדֹ֣ת בְּנֵי־ נֹ֔חַ שֵׁ֖ם חָ֣ם וָיָ֑פֶת וַיִּוָּלְד֥וּ לָהֶ֛ם בָּנִ֖ים אַחַ֥ר הַמַּבּֽוּל׃
2The sons of Japheth: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras. 2בְּנֵ֣י יֶ֔פֶת גֹּ֣מֶר וּמָג֔וֹג וּמָדַ֖י וְיָוָ֣ן וְתֻבָ֑ל וּמֶ֖שֶׁךְ וְתִירָֽס׃
3The sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah. 3וּבְנֵ֖י גֹּ֑מֶר אַשְׁכֲּנַ֥ז וְרִיפַ֖ת וְתֹגַרְמָֽה׃
4And the sons of Javan: Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim. 4וּבְנֵ֥י יָוָ֖ן אֱלִישָׁ֣ה וְתַרְשִׁ֑ישׁ כִּתִּ֖ים וְדֹדָנִֽים׃
5From these, the maritime peoples separated into their territories, according to their languages, by clans within their nations. 5מֵ֠אֵלֶּה נִפְרְד֞וּ אִיֵּ֤י הַגּוֹיִם֙ בְּאַרְצֹתָ֔ם אִ֖ישׁ לִלְשֹׁנ֑וֹ לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָ֖ם בְּגוֹיֵהֶֽם׃
6The sons of Ham: Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan. 6וּבְנֵ֖י חָ֑ם כּ֥וּשׁ וּמִצְרַ֖יִם וּפ֥וּט וּכְנָֽעַן׃
7The sons of Cush: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. And the sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan. 7וּבְנֵ֣י כ֔וּשׁ סְבָא֙ וַֽחֲוִילָ֔ה וְסַבְתָּ֥ה וְרַעְמָ֖ה וְסַבְתְּכָ֑א וּבְנֵ֥י רַעְמָ֖ה שְׁבָ֥א וּדְדָֽן׃
8And Cush was the father of Nimrod, who grew to be a mighty warrior on the earth. 8וְכ֖וּשׁ יָלַ֣ד אֶת־ נִמְרֹ֑ד ה֣וּא הֵחֵ֔ל לִֽהְי֥וֹת גִּבֹּ֖ר בָּאָֽרֶץ׃
9He was a mighty hunter before the LORD; so it is said, “Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the LORD.” 9הֽוּא־ הָיָ֥ה גִבֹּֽר־ צַ֖יִד לִפְנֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה עַל־ כֵּן֙ יֵֽאָמַ֔ר כְּנִמְרֹ֛ד גִּבּ֥וֹר צַ֖יִד לִפְנֵ֥י יְהוָֽה׃
10His kingdom began in Babylon, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar. 10וַתְּהִ֨י רֵאשִׁ֤ית מַמְלַכְתּוֹ֙ בָּבֶ֔ל וְאֶ֖רֶךְ וְאַכַּ֣ד וְכַלְנֵ֑ה בְּאֶ֖רֶץ שִׁנְעָֽר׃
11From that land he went forth into Assyria, where he built Nineveh, Rehoboth-Ir, Calah, 11מִן־ הָאָ֥רֶץ הַהִ֖וא יָצָ֣א אַשּׁ֑וּר וַיִּ֙בֶן֙ אֶת־ נִ֣ינְוֵ֔ה וְאֶת־ רְחֹבֹ֥ת עִ֖יר וְאֶת־ כָּֽלַח׃
12and Resen, which is between Nineveh and the great city of Calah. 12וְֽאֶת־ רֶ֔סֶן בֵּ֥ין נִֽינְוֵ֖ה וּבֵ֣ין כָּ֑לַח הִ֖וא הָעִ֥יר הַגְּדֹלָֽה׃
13And Mizraim was the father of the Ludites, the Anamites, the Lehabites, the Naphtuhites, 13וּמִצְרַ֡יִם יָלַ֞ד אֶת־ לוּדִ֧ים וְאֶת־ עֲנָמִ֛ים וְאֶת־ לְהָבִ֖ים וְאֶת־ נַפְתֻּחִֽים׃
14the Pathrusites, the Casluhites, and the Caphtorites (from whom the Philistines came). 14וְֽאֶת־ פַּתְרֻסִ֞ים וְאֶת־ כַּסְלֻחִ֗ים אֲשֶׁ֨ר יָצְא֥וּ מִשָּׁ֛ם פְּלִשְׁתִּ֖ים וְאֶת־ כַּפְתֹּרִֽים׃ ס
15Canaan was the father of Sidon his firstborn, and of the Hittites, 15וּכְנַ֗עַן יָלַ֛ד אֶת־ צִידֹ֥ן בְּכֹר֖וֹ וְאֶת־ חֵֽת׃
16the Jebusites, the Amorites, the Girgashites, 16וְאֶת־ הַיְבוּסִי֙ וְאֶת־ הָ֣אֱמֹרִ֔י וְאֵ֖ת הַגִּרְגָּשִֽׁי׃
17the Hivites, the Arkites, the Sinites, 17וְאֶת־ הַֽחִוִּ֥י וְאֶת־ הַֽעַרְקִ֖י וְאֶת־ הַסִּינִֽי׃
18the Arvadites, the Zemarites, and the Hamathites. Later the Canaanite clans were scattered 18וְאֶת־ הָֽאַרְוָדִ֥י וְאֶת־ הַצְּמָרִ֖י וְאֶת־ הַֽחֲמָתִ֑י וְאַחַ֣ר נָפֹ֔צוּ מִשְׁפְּח֖וֹת הַֽכְּנַעֲנִֽי׃
19and the borders of Canaan extended from Sidon toward Gerar as far as Gaza, and then toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha. 19וַֽיְהִ֞י גְּב֤וּל הַֽכְּנַעֲנִי֙ מִצִּידֹ֔ן בֹּאֲכָ֥ה גְרָ֖רָה עַד־ עַזָּ֑ה בֹּאֲכָ֞ה סְדֹ֧מָה וַעֲמֹרָ֛ה וְאַדְמָ֥ה וּצְבֹיִ֖ם עַד־ לָֽשַׁע׃
20These [are] the sons of Ham according to their clans, languages, lands, and nations. 20אֵ֣לֶּה בְנֵי־ חָ֔ם לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָ֖ם לִלְשֹֽׁנֹתָ֑ם בְּאַרְצֹתָ֖ם בְּגוֹיֵהֶֽם׃ ס
21And sons were also born to Shem, the older brother [of] Japheth; [Shem] was the forefather of all the sons of Eber. 21וּלְשֵׁ֥ם יֻלַּ֖ד גַּם־ ה֑וּא אֲבִי֙ כָּל־ בְּנֵי־ עֵ֔בֶר אֲחִ֖י יֶ֥פֶת הַגָּדֽוֹל׃
22The sons of Shem: Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram. 22בְּנֵ֥י שֵׁ֖ם עֵילָ֣ם וְאַשּׁ֑וּר וְאַרְפַּכְשַׁ֖ד וְל֥וּד וַֽאֲרָֽם׃
23The sons of Aram: Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash. 23וּבְנֵ֖י אֲרָ֑ם ע֥וּץ וְח֖וּל וְגֶ֥תֶר וָמַֽשׁ׃
24And Arphaxad was the father of Shelah, and Shelah was the father of Eber. 24וְאַרְפַּכְשַׁ֖ד יָלַ֣ד אֶת־ שָׁ֑לַח וְשֶׁ֖לַח יָלַ֥ד אֶת־ עֵֽבֶר׃
25And two sons were born to Eber: One was named Peleg, because in his days the earth was divided, and his brother was named Joktan. 25וּלְעֵ֥בֶר יֻלַּ֖ד שְׁנֵ֣י בָנִ֑ים שֵׁ֣ם הָֽאֶחָ֞ד פֶּ֗לֶג כִּ֤י בְיָמָיו֙ נִפְלְגָ֣ה הָאָ֔רֶץ וְשֵׁ֥ם אָחִ֖יו יָקְטָֽן׃
26And Joktan was the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah, 26וְיָקְטָ֣ן יָלַ֔ד אֶת־ אַלְמוֹדָ֖ד וְאֶת־ שָׁ֑לֶף וְאֶת־ חֲצַרְמָ֖וֶת וְאֶת־ יָֽרַח׃
27Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah, 27וְאֶת־ הֲדוֹרָ֥ם וְאֶת־ אוּזָ֖ל וְאֶת־ דִּקְלָֽה׃
28Obal, Abimael, Sheba, 28וְאֶת־ עוֹבָ֥ל וְאֶת־ אֲבִֽימָאֵ֖ל וְאֶת־ שְׁבָֽא׃
29Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All these [were] sons of Joktan. 29וְאֶת־ אוֹפִ֥ר וְאֶת־ חֲוִילָ֖ה וְאֶת־ יוֹבָ֑ב כָּל־ אֵ֖לֶּה בְּנֵ֥י יָקְטָֽן׃
30Their territory extended from Mesha to Sephar, in the eastern hill country. 30וַֽיְהִ֥י מוֹשָׁבָ֖ם מִמֵּשָׁ֑א בֹּאֲכָ֥ה סְפָ֖רָה הַ֥ר הַקֶּֽדֶם׃
31These are the sons of Shem, according to their clans, languages, lands, and nations. 31אֵ֣לֶּה בְנֵי־ שֵׁ֔ם לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָ֖ם לִלְשֹׁנֹתָ֑ם בְּאַרְצֹתָ֖ם לְגוֹיֵהֶֽם׃
32All these are the clans of Noah’s sons, according to their generations and nations. From these the nations of the earth spread out after the flood. 32אֵ֣לֶּה מִשְׁפְּחֹ֧ת בְּנֵי־ נֹ֛חַ לְתוֹלְדֹתָ֖ם בְּגוֹיֵהֶ֑ם וּמֵאֵ֜לֶּה נִפְרְד֧וּ הַגּוֹיִ֛ם בָּאָ֖רֶץ אַחַ֥ר הַמַּבּֽוּל׃ פ
