Genesis 10:4-12
-
4 And the sons of Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.
-
5 By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations.
-
6 And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan.
-
7 And the sons of Cush; Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtechah: and the sons of Raamah; Sheba, and Dedan.
-
8 And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.
-
9 He was a mighty hunter before the LORD: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the LORD.
-
10 And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
-
11 Out of that land went forth Asshur, and builded Nineveh, and the city Rehoboth, and Calah,
-
12 And Resen between Nineveh and Calah: the same is a great city.
