The descendants of Noah
Genesis 10
This is the account of Shem, Ham and Japheth, Noah's sons, who themselves had sons after
the flood. The Japhethites The sons of Japheth:
Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan,
Tubal, Meshech and Tiras. The sons of Gomer:
Ashkenaz, Riphath and Togarmah. The
sons of Javan:
Elishah, Tarshish, the Kittim and the Rodanim. (From these the maritime
peoples spread out into their territories by their clans within their nations, each with its own language.) The Hamites The
sons of Ham:
Cush, Mizraim, Put and Canaan. The sons of Cush:
Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah and Sabteca.
The sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan.
Cush was the father of Nimrod, who grew to be a mighty warrior on the earth. He was a mighty hunter before the LORD; that
is why it is said, "Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the LORD." The first centers of his kingdom were Babylon, Erech, Akkad
and Calneh, in Shinar. From that land he went to Assyria, where he built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah and Resen, which
is between Nineveh and Calah; that is the great city. Mizraim was the father of the Ludites, Anamites, Lehabites, Naphtuhites,
Pathrusites, Casluhites (from whom the Philistines came) and Caphtorites. Canaan was the father of
Sidon his firstborn, and of the Hittites, Jebusites, Amorites, Girgashites,Hivites, Arkites, Sinites, Arvadites, Zemarites
and Hamathites.
Later the Canaanite clans scattered and the borders of Canaan reached
from Sidon toward Gerar as far as Gaza, and then toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha. These are the
sons of Ham by their clans and languages, in their territories and nations. The Semites Sons were also born to Shem, whose
older brother was Japheth;
Shem was the ancestor of all the sons of Eber.
The sons of Shem:
Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud and
Aram.
The sons of Aram:
Uz, Hul, Gether and Meshech.
Arphaxad was the father of Shelah,
and Shelah
the father of Eber.
Two sons were born to Eber: One was named Peleg, because in his time the earth was divided;
his brother was named Joktan.
Joktan was the father of
Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth,
Jerah, Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah, Obal, Abimael, Sheba, Ophir, Havilah and Jobab. All these were sons of Joktan. The region
where they lived stretched from Mesha toward Sephar, in the eastern hill country.
These are the sons of Shem by their clans and languages, in their territories and nations.
These are the clans of Noah's sons, according to their lines of descent, within their nations. From these the nations spread
out over the earth after the flood.

From Shem to Abram
Genesis 11:10-32
This is the account of Shem.
Two
years after the flood, when Shem was 100 years old, he became the father of Arphaxad. And after he became the father
of Arphaxad, Shem lived 500 years and had other sons and daughters. When Arphaxad had lived 35 years, he became the father
of Shelah. And after he became the father of Shelah, Arphaxad lived 403 years and had other sons and daughters. When Shelah
had lived 30 years, he became the father of Eber. And after he became the father of Eber, Shelah lived 403 years and had other
sons and daughters. When Eber had lived 34 years, he became the father of Peleg. And after he became the father of Peleg,
Eber lived 430 years and had other sons and daughters. When Peleg had lived 30 years, he became the father of Reu.
And after he became the father of Reu, Peleg lived 209 years and had other sons and daughters. When Reu had lived 32 years,
he became the father of Serug. And after he became the father of Serug, Reu lived 207 years and had other sons and daughters.
When Serug had lived 30 years, he became the father of Nahor. And after he became the father of Nahor, Serug lived 200 years
and had other sons and daughters. When Nahor had lived 29 years, he became the father of Terah. And after he became the father
of Terah, Nahor lived 119 years and had other sons and daughters. After Terah had lived 70 years, he became the father of
Abram, Nahor and Haran. This is the account of Terah. Terah became the father of Abram, Nahor and Haran. And Haran became
the father of Lot. While his father Terah was still alive, Haran died in Ur of the Chaldeans, in the land of his birth. Abram
and Nahor both married. The name of Abram's wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor's wife was Milcah; she was the daughter
of Haran, the father of both Milcah and Iscah. Now Sarai was barren; she had no children. Terah took his son Abram, his grandson
Lot son of Haran, and his daughter-in-law Sarai, the wife of his son Abram, and together they set out from Ur of the Chaldeans
to go to Canaan. But when they came to Haran, they settled there. Terah lived 205 years, and he died in Haran.
