And, the sons of Ham: Cush and Mizraim and Phut and Canaan.

And, the sons of Cush: Seba and Havilah, and Sabtah and Raamah, and Sabtechah, - And the sons of Raamah, Sheba and Dedan.

And, Cush begat Nimrod. - he, became a hero in the earth;

he, became a hero of hunting before Yahweh, for this cause, it is said. Like Nimrod, a hero of hunting before Yahweh.

So the beginning of his kingdom came to be Babel, and Erech, and Accad and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

From that land, went forth Asshur, - and he built Nineveh, and Rehoboth-ir, and Calah:

and Resen, between Niveveh and Calah, - the same is the great city.

And, Mizraim, begat Ludim and Anamim and Lehabim, and Naphtuchim;

and Pathrusim and Casluhim whence came forth Philistim and Caphtorim.

And Canaan begat Zidon his firstborn, and Heth:

and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgashite;

and the Hivite and the Arkite, and the Sinite:

and the Arvadite and the Zemarite and the Hamathite, - and after-wards, were spread abroad the families of the Canaanite.

And 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.

These, are the sons of Ham, by their families by their tongues, in their lands in their nations.
