1 This is the account of Noah's sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and their descendants. Shem, Ham and Japheth had children after the flood.

2 Japheth's descendants were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.

3 Gomer's descendants were Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.

4 Javan's descendants were the people from Elishah, Tarshish, Cyprus, and Rhodes.

5 From these descendants the people of the coastlands spread into their own countries. Each nation had its own language and families.

6 Ham's descendants were Cush, Egypt, Put, and Canaan.

7 Cush's descendants were Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. Raamah's descendants were Sheba and Dedan.

8 Cush was the father of Nimrod, the first mighty warrior on the earth.
