⥃The Table of Nations ^{[ 1 Chronicles 1:4–27 ]}

[1] Now these [are] the² generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and unto³ them were sons born after the flood.

⥃The Japhethites

[2] The sons of Japheth; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.⁴ [3] And the sons of Gomer; Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah. [4] And the sons of Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim⁵, and Dodanim⁶.⁷ [5] By these were the isles⁸ of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his⁹ tongue, after their families, in their nations.¹⁰

⥃The Hamites

[6] And the¹¹ sons of Ham¹²; Cush¹³, and Mizraim, and Phut¹⁴, and Canaan.¹⁵ [7] And the sons of Cush; Seba¹⁶, and Havilah¹⁷, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtecha: and the sons of Raamah; Sheba¹⁸, and Dedan¹⁹. [8] And Cush begat Nimrod²⁰: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.²¹ [9] He was a mighty²² hunter before the Lord²³: wherefore it is said, Even²⁴ as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the Lord. [10] And the²⁵ beginning of his kingdom was Babel²⁶, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh²⁷, in the land of Shinar²⁸.²⁹ [11] Out of that land went forth Asshur³⁰³¹, and builded Nineveh³², and the city Rehoboth, and Calah,³³ [12] And Resen between Nineveh and Calah: the same [is] a great city. [13] And Mizraim begat Ludim³⁴, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim, [14] And Pathrusim³⁵, and Casluhim, (out of whom came Philistim³⁶,) and Caphtorim³⁷.

[15] And Canaan³⁸ begat Sidon³⁹ his firstborn, and Heth⁴⁰, [16] And the Jebusite⁴¹, and the Amorite, and the Girgasite, [17] And the Hivite⁴², and the Arkite, and the Sinite, [18] And the Arvadite⁴³, and the Zemarite⁴⁴, and the Hamathite⁴⁵: and afterward were the families of the Canaanites spread abroad. [19] And the⁴⁶ border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as thou comest⁴⁷ to Gerar⁴⁸, unto Gaza⁴⁹; as thou goest, unto Sodom⁵⁰, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, even unto Lasha. [20] These [are] the sons of Ham, after their families, after their tongues, in their countries, [and] in their nations.⁵¹

⥃The Semites

[21] Unto Shem⁵² also, the father⁵³ of all the children of Eber⁵⁴, the brother⁵⁵ of Japheth the elder, even to him were [children] born. [22] The children⁵⁶ of Shem; Elam⁵⁷, and Asshur, and Arphaxad⁵⁸, and Lud⁵⁹, and Aram⁶⁰. [23] And the children of Aram; Uz⁶¹, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash. [24] And Arphaxad begat Salah⁶²; and Salah begat Eber. [25] And unto Eber⁶³ were born two sons: the name⁶⁴ of one [was] Peleg⁶⁵; for in⁶⁶ his days was the earth divided; and his brother’s name [was] Joktan.⁶⁷ [26] And Joktan begat Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah,⁶⁸ [27] And Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah,⁶⁹ [28] And Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba,⁷⁰ [29] And Ophir⁷¹, and Havilah⁷², and Jobab: all these [were] the sons of Joktan. [30] And their dwelling was from Mesha, as thou goest unto Sephar a mount of the east⁷³. [31] These [are] the sons of Shem, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, after their nations.⁷⁴ [32] These [are] the⁷⁵ families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations: and by⁷⁶ these were the nations⁷⁷ divided in the earth after the flood.
