Verses Mentioning Shem
Noah was five hundred years old, then Noah became the father of Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
Noah became the father of three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
In the same day Noah, and Shem, Ham, and Japheth—the sons of Noah—and Noah’s wife and the three wives of his sons with them, entered into the ship—
The sons of Noah who went out from the ship were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham is the father of Canaan.
Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it on both their shoulders, went in backwards, and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces were backwards, and they didn’t see their father’s nakedness.
He said, “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Shem. Let Canaan be his servant.
May God enlarge Japheth. Let him dwell in the tents of Shem. Let Canaan be his servant.”
Now this is the history of the generations of the sons of Noah and of Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons were born to them after the flood.
Children were also born to Shem, the father of all the children of Eber, the elder brother of Japheth.
The sons of Shem were: Elam, Asshur, Arpachshad, Lud, and Aram.
These are the sons of Shem, by their families, according to their languages, lands, and nations.
This is the history of the generations of Shem. Shem was one hundred years old and became the father of Arpachshad two years after the flood.
Shem lived five hundred years after he became the father of Arpachshad, and became the father of sons and daughters.
Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
The sons of Shem: Elam, and Asshur, and Arpachshad, and Lud, and Aram, and Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Meshech.
Shem, Arpachshad, Shelah,
the son of Kenan, the son of Arpachshad, the son of Shem, the son of Noah, the son of Lamech,
