◄ Genesis 10 ►
Rotherham's Emphasized Bible
1Now, these, are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth,—and there were born to them sons, after the flood. 2The sons of Japheth: Gomer and Magog, and Madai, and Javan and Tubal,—and Meshech, and Tiras. 3And the sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz and Riphath, and Togarmah. 4And, the sons of Javan: Elishah and Tarshish,—Kittim, and Rodanim. 5From these, were dispersed [the inhabitants of] the coastlands of the nations, in their lands, each man by his tongue,—by their families, in their nations.

6And, the sons of Ham: Cush and Mizraim and Phut and Canaan. 7And, the sons of Cush: Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah and Raamah, and Sabtechah,—And, the sons of Raamah, Sheba and Dedan. 8And, Cush, begat Nimrod,—he, became a hero in the earth; 9he, became a hero of hunting before Yahweh,—for this cause, it is said, Like Nimrod, a hero of hunting before Yahweh. 10So the beginning of his kingdom came to be Babel, and Erech, and Accad and Calneh,—in the land of Shinar. 11From that land, went forth Asshur,—and he built Nineveh, and Rehoboth-ir, and Calah; 12and Resen, between Niveveh and Calah,—the same, is the great city. 13And, Mizraim, begat Ludim and Anamim and Lehabim, and Naphtuchim; 14and Pathrusim and Casluhim, whence came forth Philistim and Caphtorim.

15And, Canaan, begat Zidon his firstborn, and Heth; 16and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgashite; 17and the Hivite and the Arkite, and the Sinite; 18and the Arvadite and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite,—and, afterwards, were spread abroad the families of the Canaanite. 19And it came to pass, that the boundary of the Canaanite was from Zidon, as thou enterest in towards Gerar, unto Gaza,—as thou enterest in towards Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboim, as far as Lasha. 20These, are the sons of Ham, by their families, by their tongues,—in their lands, in their nations.

21Now, to Shem, father of all the sons of Eber, elder brother of Japheth, to him also, were children born. 22The sons of Shem: Elam and Asshur,—and Arpachshad, and Lud and Aram. 23And, the sons of Aram: Uz and Hul, and Gether and Mash. 24Now, Arpachshad, begat Shelah,—and, Shelah, begat Eber. 25And, to Eber, were born two sons,—the name of the one, was Peleg, for, in his days, was the earth divided, and, the name of his brother, was Joktan. 26Now, Joktan, begat Almodad, and Sheleph,—and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah; 27and Hadoram and Uzal, and Diklah; 28and Obal and Abimael, and Sheba; 29and Ophir and Havilah, and Jobab,—all these, were sons of Joktan. 30And it came to pass that their dwelling was from Mesha,—as thou enterest in towards Sephar, the mountain of the east. 31These, are the sons of Shem, by their families, by their tongues,—in their lands, by their nations. 32These, are the families of the sons of Noah, by their generations in their nations,—and, from these, were dispersed the nations in the earth, after the flood.

Rotherham's Emphasized Bible, 1902, is a translation of the Bible that uses various methods, such as "emphatic idiom" and special diacritical marks, to bring out nuances of the underlying Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic texts.
