Original Douay-Rheims Bible (1582/1609)
Genesis 10
1These are the generations of the sons of Noe, Sem, Cham, and Japheth: and children were born to them after the flood.
2The children of Japheth: Gomer, & Magog, & Madai, & Javan, & Tubal, and Mosoch, and Thiras.
3Moreover the children of Gomer: Ascenez, and Riphath, and Thogorma.
4And the sons of Javan: Elisa, and Tharsis, the Cetims and the Dodanims.
5Of these were divided the Isles of Nations in their countries, each one according to his tongue, & their families in their nations.
6And the sons of Cham: Chus, & Mesraim, & Phut, and Chanaan.
7And the sons of Chus: Saba, Hevila, and Sabatha, & Regma, & Sabathaca. The sons of Regma: Saba, and Dadan.
8Moreover Chus begat Nemrod: he began to be mighty in the earth.
9and he was a valiant hunter before our Lord. Thereof rose a proverb: As it were Nemrod the valiant hunter before our Lord.
10And the beginning of his kingdom was Babylon, and Arach, and Achad, and Chalanne in the land of Sennaar.
11Out of that land came forth Assur, & builded Ninive, & the streets of the city, and Chale.
12Resen also between Ninive, & Chale: this is the great city.
13But Mesraim also begat the Ludims, & the Anamims, & the Laabims, the Nephthuims,
14and the Phetrusims, & the Casluims: of whom came forth the Philistims & the Caphtorims.
15And Chanaan begat Sidon his first-begotten, Hethæus,
16and Iebusæus, and Amorrhæus, and Gergesæus.
17Hevæus and Aracæus, Sinæus,
18and A radius, Samaræus, and Hamathæus: and afterwards were spread the people of the Chananites.
19And the limits of Chanaan were from Sidon as we come to Gerara even to Gaza, until thou enter to Sodoma and Gomorrha, and Adama, and Seboim, even to Lesa.
20These are the children of Cham in their kindreds, and tongues, and generations, and lands, and nations.
21Of Sem also father of all the children of Heber, the elder brother of Japheth, were born:
22The children of Sem: Ælam and Assur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.
23The children of Aram: Us, and Hul, and Gether, and Mes.
24And Arphaxad also begat Sale, of whom was born Heber.
25And to Heber were born two sons: the name of the one was Phaleg, because that in his days was the earth divided: and his brother's name was Jectan.
26The which Jectan begat Elmodad, and Saleph, and Asarmoth, Jare;
27and Aduram, and Uzal, and Decla,
28and Ebal, and Abimael, Saba,
29and Ophir, and Hevila, and Jobab. All these were the children of Jectan.
30And their dwelling was from Messa as we go on as far as Sephar a mountain in the east.
31These are the children of Sem according to their kindred, and tongues, and countries in their nations.
32These are the families of Noe, according to their peoples and nations. Of these were the nations divided on the earth after the flood.
