The Descendants of Ham

6

And the Sons of Cham: Chus, and Mesram, and Phuth, and Chanaan.

7

And the sons of Chus: Saba, and Hevila, and Sabatha, and Regma, and Sabatacha. The sons of Regma: Saba, and Dadan.

8

Now Chus begot Nemrod: he began to be mighty on the earth.

9

And he was a stout hunter before the Lord. Hence came a proverb: Even as Nemrod the stout hunter before the Lord.

10

And the beginning of his kingdom was Babylon, and Arach, and Achad, and Chalanne in the land of Sennaar.

11

Out of that land came forth Assur, and built Ninive, and the streets of the city, and Chale.

12

Resen also between Ninive and Chale: this is the great city.

13

And Mesraim begot Ludim, and Anamim and Laabim, Nephthuim.

14

And Phetrusim, and Chasluim; of whom came forth the Philistines, and the Capthorim.

15

And Chanaan begot Sidon his firstborn, the Hethite,

16

And the Jebusite, and the Amorrhite, and the Gergesite.

17

The Hevite and Aracite: the Sinite,

18

And the Aradian, the Samarite, and the Hamathite: and afterwards the families of the Chanaanites were spread abroad.

19

And the limits of Chanaan were from Sidon as one comes to Gerara even to Gaza, until thou enter Sodom and Gomorrha, and Adama, and Seboim even to Lesa.

20

These are the children of Cham in their kindreds and tongues, and generations, and lands, and nations.
