Genesis - ch 10 v 1 - 20
- Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: these are the sons which they had after the great flow of waters
- The sons of Japheth: Gomer and Magog and Madai and Javan and Tubal and Meshech and Tiras.
- And the sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz and Riphath and Togarmah.
- And the sons of Javan: Elishah and Tarshish, the Kittim and the Dodanim.
- From these came the nations of the sea-lands, with their different families and languages.
- And the sons of Ham: Cush and Mizraim and Put and Canaan.
- And the sons of Cush: Seba and Havilah and Sabtah and Raamah and Sabteca; and the sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan.
- And Cush was the father of Nimrod, who was the first of the great men of the earth.
- He was a very great bowman, so that there is a saying, Like Nimrod, a very great bowman.
- And at the first, his kingdom was Babel and Erech and Accad and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
- From that land he went out into Assyria, building Nineveh with its wide streets and Calah,
- And Resen between Nineveh and Calah, which is a very great town.
- And Mizraim was the father of the Ludim and Anamim and Lehabim and Naphtuhim;
- And Pathrusim and Casluhim and Caphtorim, from whom came the Philistines.
- And Canaan was the father of Zidon, who was his oldest son, 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; after that the families of the Canaanites went far and wide in all directions;
- Their country stretching from Zidon to Gaza, in the direction of Gerar; and to Lasha, in the direction of Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboiim.
- All these, with their different families, languages, lands, and nations, are the offspring of Ham.
