The Table of Nations

1 Chronicles 1:4–27

1Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, [namely], of Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were sons born after the flood.+

The Japhethites

2The sons of Japheth: Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.+ 3And the sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.+ 4And the sons of Javan: Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.+ 5Of these were the isles of the nations divided in their lands, every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations.+

The Hamites

6And the sons of Ham: Cush, and Mizraim, and Put, and Canaan.+ 7And the sons of Cush: Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabteca; and the sons of Raamah: Sheba, and Dedan.+ 8And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.+ 9He was a mighty hunter before Jehovah: wherefore it is said, Like Nimrod a mighty hunter before Jehovah.+ 10And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.+ 11Out of that land he went forth into Assyria, and builded Nineveh, and Rehoboth-Ir, and Calah,+ 12and Resen between Nineveh and Calah ( the same is the great city).+ 13And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,+ 14and Pathrusim, and Casluhim (whence went forth the Philistines), and Caphtorim.+ 15And Canaan begat Sidon his first-born, and Heth,+ 16and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgashite,+ 17and the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite,+ 18and the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite: and afterward were the families of the Canaanite spread abroad.+ 19And the border of the Canaanite was from Sidon, as thou goest toward Gerar, unto Gaza; as thou goest toward Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboiim, unto Lasha.+ 20These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, in their nations.+

The Semites

21And unto Shem, the father of all the children of Eber, the elder brother of Japheth, to him also were children born.+ 22The sons of Shem: Elam, and Asshur, and Arpachshad, and Lud, and Aram.+ 23And the sons of Aram: Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.+ 24And Arpachshad begat Shelah; and Shelah begat Eber.+ 25And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother’s name was Joktan.+ 26And Joktan begat Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah,+ 27and Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah,+ 28and Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba,+ 29and Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab: all these were the sons of Joktan.+ 30And their dwelling was from Mesha, as thou goest toward Sephar, the mountain of the east.+ 31These are the sons of Shem, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, after their nations.+ 32These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations: and of these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.+
