¹ Here is the genealogy of the sons of Noach — Shem, Ham and Yefet; sons were born to them after the flood.

² The sons of Yefet were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Yavan, Tuval, Meshekh and Tiras.

³ The sons of Gomer were Ashkenaz, Rifat and Togarmah.

⁴ The sons of Yavan were Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim and Dodanim.

⁵ From these the islands of the nations were divided into their lands, each according to its language, according to their families, in their nations.

⁶ The sons of Ham were Kush, Mitzrayim, Put and Kena‘an.

⁷ The sons of Kush were S’va, Havilah, Savta, Ra‘mah and Savt’kha. The sons of Ra‘mah were Sh’va and D’dan.

⁸ Kush fathered Nimrod, who was the first powerful ruler on earth.

⁹ He was a mighty hunter before ADONAI — this is why people say, “Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before ADONAI.”

¹⁰ His kingdom began with Bavel, Erekh, Akkad and Kalneh, in the land of Shin‘ar.

¹¹ Ashur went out from that land and built Ninveh, the city Rechovot, Kelach,

¹² and Resen between Ninveh and Kelach — that one is the great city.

¹³ Mitzrayim fathered the Ludim, the ‘Anamim, the L’havim, the Naftuchim,

¹⁴ the Patrusim, the Kasluchim (from whom came the P’lishtim) and the Kaftorim.

¹⁵ Kena‘an fathered Tzidon his firstborn, Het,

¹⁶ the Y’vusi, the Emori, the Girgashi,

¹⁷ the Hivi, the ‘Arki, the Sini,

¹⁸ the Arvadi, the Tz’mari and the Hamati. Afterwards, the families of the Kena‘ani were dispersed.

¹⁹ The border of the Kena‘ani was from Tzidon, as you go toward G’rar, to ‘Azah; as you go toward S’dom, ‘Amora, Admah and Tzvoyim, to Lesha.

²⁰ These were the descendants of Ham, according to their families and languages, in their lands and in their nations.

²¹ Children were also born to Shem, ancestor of all the descendants of ‘Ever and older brother of Yefet.

²² The sons of Shem were ‘Elam, Ashur, Arpakhshad, Lud and Aram.

²³ The sons of Aram were ‘Utz, Hul, Geter and Mash.

²⁴ Arpakhshad fathered Shelach, and Shelach fathered ‘Ever.

²⁵ To ‘Ever were born two sons. One was given the name Peleg [division], because during his lifetime the earth was divided. His brother’s name was Yoktan.

²⁶ Yoktan fathered Almodad, Shelef, Hatzar-Mavet, Yerach,

²⁷ Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,

²⁸ ‘Oval, Avima’el, Sheva,

²⁹ Ofir, Havilah and Yovav — all these were the sons of Yoktan.

³⁰ Their territory stretched from Mesha, as you go toward S’far, to the mountain in the east.

³¹ These were the descendants of Shem, according to their families and languages, in their lands and in their nations.

³² These were the families of the sons of Noach, according to their generations, in their nations. From these the nations of the earth were divided up after the flood.
