Bereshis 10
10
1Now these are the toldot of the Bnei Noach: Shem, Cham, and Yephet; and unto them were banim born after the mabbul (flood).
2The Bnei Yephet: Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Yavan, and Tuval, and Meshech, and Tiras.
3And the Bnei Gomer: Ashkenaz, and Riphat, and Togarmah.
4And the Bnei Yavan: Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.
5By these were the coastlands of the Goyim divided in their lands; every one after his leshon, after their mishpechot, in their Goyim.
6And the Bnei Cham: Cush, and Mitzrayim, and Put, and Kena'an.
7And the Bnei Cush: Seva, and Chavilah, and Savtah, and Ra'amah, and Savtecha; and the Bnei Raamah: Sheva, and Dedan.
8And Cush fathered Nimrod; he began to be a gibbor in ha'aretz.
9He was a gibbor, a hunter before Hashem; therefore it is said, like Nimrod the gibbor, the hunter before Hashem.
10And the beginning of his kingdom was Bavel, and Erech, and Akkad, and Calneh, in Eretz Shinar.
11Out of that land he went forth to Ashur, and built Nineveh, and Rechovot-Ir, and Kelach,
12And Resen between Nineveh and Kelach; the same is haIr Hagedolah.
13And Mitzrayim fathered Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehavim, and Naphtuchim,
14And Patrusim, and Casluchim, out of whom came Pelishtim (Philistines), and Caphtorim.
15And Kena'an fathered Tzidon his bechor, and Chet,
16And the Yevusi, and the Emori, and the Girgashi,
17And the Chivi, and the Arki, and the Sini,
18And the Arvadi, and the Tzemari, and the Chamati; and afterward were the mishpechot haKena'ani spread abroad.
19And the boundary of the Kena'ani was from Tzidon, as thou comest to Gerar, unto Azah (Gaza); as thou goest, unto Sodom, and Amora (Gomorrah), and Admah, and Tzevoyim, even unto Lesha.
20These are the Bnei Cham, after their mishpechot, after their leshonot, in their territories, and in their Goyim.
21Also unto Shem avi kol Bnei Ever, and the older brother of Yephet, even to him were offspring born.
22The Bnei Shem: Eilam, and Ashur, and Arpachshad, and Lud, and Aram.
23And Bnei Aram: Utz, and Chul, and Geter, and Mash.
24And Arpachshad fathered Shelach; and Shelach fathered Ever.
25And unto Ever were born two banim: the shem of one was Peleg; for in his days was ha'aretz divided; and his brotherʼs shem was Yoktan.
26And Yoktan fathered Almodad, and Sheleph, and Chatzarmavet, and Yerach,
27And Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah,
28And Oval, and Avimael, and Sheva,
29And Ophir, and Chavilah, and Yovav; all these were the Bnei Yoktan.
30And their moshav (dwelling) was from Mesha, as thou goest unto Sephar har hakedem.
31These are the Bnei Shem, after their mishpechot, according to their leshonot, in their territories, after their Goyim.
32These are the mishpechot of the Bnei Noach, after their toldot, in their Goyim; and by these were the Goyim divided/separated in ha'aretz after the mabbul.

Genesis 10
10
Noah’s descendants
1These are the descendants of Noah’s sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, to whom children were born after the flood. 2Japheth’s sons: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras. 3Gomer’s sons: Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah. 4Javan’s sons: Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Rodanim.#10.4 LXX, Sam, 1 Chron 1:7; MT Dodanim 5From these the island-nations were divided into their own countries, each according to their languages and their clans within their nations.
6Ham’s sons: Cush, Egypt, Put, and Canaan. 7Cush’s sons: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. Raamah’s sons: Sheba and Dedan. 8Cush fathered Nimrod, the first great warrior on earth. 9The LORD saw him as a great hunter, and so it is said, “Like Nimrod, whom the LORD saw as a great hunter.” 10The most important cities in his kingdom were Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh in the land of Shinar. 11Asshur left that land and built Nineveh, Rehoboth City, Calah, 12and Resen, the great city between Nineveh and Calah. 13Egypt fathered Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim, 14Pathrusim, Casluhim, and Caphtorim,#10.14 Or Casluhim, from which the Philistines set out, and Caphtorim from which the Philistines came.
15Canaan fathered Sidon his oldest son, and Heth, 16the Jebusites, the Amorites, the Girgashites, 17the Hivites, the Arkites, the Sinites, 18the Arvadites, the Zemarites, and the Hamathites. After this the Canaanite clans were dispersed. 19The Canaanite boundary extends from Sidon by way of Gerar to Gaza and by way of Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim to Lasha. 20These are Ham’s sons according to their clans, their languages, their lands, and their nations.
21Children were also born to Shem the father of all Eber’s children and Japheth’s older brother.
22Shem’s sons: Elam, Asshur, Arpachshad, Lud, and Aram. 23Aram’s sons: Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash. 24Arpachshad fathered Shelah, and Shelah fathered Eber. 25To Eber were born two sons: The first was named Peleg,#10.25 Or separation because during his lifetime the earth was divided. His brother’s name was Joktan. 26Joktan fathered Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah, 27Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah, 28Obal, Abimael, Sheba, 29Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All of these were Joktan’s sons. 30Their settlements extended from Mesha by way of Sephar, the eastern mountains. 31These are Shem’s sons according to their clans, their languages, their lands, and their nations.
32These are the clans of Noah’s sons according to their generations and their nations. From them the earth’s nations branched out after the flood.
