he hath begun to be a hero in the land; he hath been a hero in hunting before Jehovah; therefore it is said, `As Nimrod the hero in hunting before Jehovah.'
-
And the first part of his kingdom is Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar;
-
from that land he hath gone out to Asshur, and buildeth Nineveh, even the broad places of the city, and Calah,
-

and the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite; and afterwards have the families of the Canaanite been scattered.
-
And the border of the Canaanite is from Sidon, in thy coming towards Gerar, unto Gaza; in thy coming towards Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, unto Lasha.
-
These are sons of Ham, by their families, by their tongues, in their lands, in their nations.

And Joktan hath begotten Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah,
-
and Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah,
-
and Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba,
-
and Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab; all these are sons of Joktan;
-
and their dwelling is from Mesha, in thy coming towards Sephar, a mount of the east.
-
These are sons of Shem, by their families, by their tongues, in their lands, by their nations.
-
These are families of the sons of Noah, by their births, in their nations, and by these have the nations been parted in the earth after the deluge.
