And these are the generations of the sons of Noach: Shem, Ham and Yepheth: and they birth sons after the flood. 2 The sons of Yepheth: Gomer and Magog and Maday and Yavan and Tubal and Meshech and Tiras. 3 And the sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz and Riphath and Togarmah. 4 And the sons of Yavan: Eli Shah and Tarshish, Kittiym and Dodanim. 5 By these were the isles of the goyim separated in their lands; each man by his tongue, by their families, in their goyim. 6 And the sons of Ham: Kush and Misraim and Put and Kenaan. 7 And the sons of Kush: Seba and Havilah and Sabtah and Raamah and Sabtechah. And the sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan. 8 And Kush births Nimrod: he begins to be mighty in the earth. 9 He is a mighty hunter at the face of Yah Veh: thus it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter at the face of Yah Veh. 10 And the beginning of his sovereigndom is Babel and Erech and Akkad and Kalneh in the land of Shinar. 11 From that land Ashshur goes and builds Nineveh and the city Rechovoth and Kelach; 12 And Resen between Nineveh and Kelach - a great city. 13 And Misraim births Ludiym and Anamim and Lehabim and Naphtuchim 14 and Pathrsimm and Kasluhim - from whom came Peleshethiym and Kaphtorim. 15 And Kenaan births Sidon his firstborn firstbirthed and Heth, 16 and the Yebusiy and the Emoriy and the Girgashiy 17 and the Hivviy and the Arqiy and the Siniy 18 and the Arvadiy and the Semariy and the Hamathiy: and afterward the families of the Kenaaniy scatter. 19 And the border of the Kenaaniy is from Sidon, as you come to Gerar, to Azzah; as you go to Sedom and Amorah and Admah and Seboim, to Lesha. 20 These are the sons of Ham, by their families, by their tongues, in their lands, in their goyim. 21 As to Shem, the father of all the sons of Heber, the brother of Yepheth the greater, he also births. 22 The sons of Shem: Elam and Ashshur and Arpachshad and Lud and Aram. 23 And the sons of Aram: Us and Hul and Gether and Mash. 24 And Arpachshad births Shelach; and Shelach births Heber: 25 And Heber births two sons: the name of one, Peleg; for in his days the earth is divided; and the name of his brother, Yoqtan. 26 And Yoqtan births Almodad and Sheleph and Hasar Maveth and Yerach 27 and Hado Ram and Uzal and Diqlah 28 and Obal and Abi Mael and Sheba 29 and Ophir and Havilah and Yobab: all these are the sons of Yoqtan. 30 And their settlement is from Mesha, as you go to Sephar a mount of the east. 31 These are the sons of Shem, by their families, by their tongues, in their lands, by their goyim. 32 These are the families of the sons of Noach, by their generations, in their goyim: and by these the goyim separate in the earth after the flood. 11 1
THE TOWER OF BABEL
And the whole earth is of one lip and of one word. 2 And so be it, as they pull stakes from the east, they find a valley in the land of Shinar and settle there. 3 And they say, man to friend, Give, we make brick and in burning, burn them; the brick is for stone and bitumin is for morter. 4 And they say, Give, we build us a city and a tower whose top is to the heavens; and we work us a name, lest we be scattered abroad on the face of the whole earth. 5 And Yah Veh descends to see the city and the tower the sons of humanity build: 6 and Yah Veh says, Behold, the people is one with one lip to all; and they begin to work this: and now naught is clipped from them, of which they intrigue to work. 7 Give, we descend and mix up their lip, that man not hear the lip of his friend. 8 And from there, Yah Veh scatters them abroad on the face of all the earth: and they cease to build the city. 9 So the name thereof is called Babel; because there Yah Veh mixes up the lip of all the earth: and from there Yah Veh scatters them abroad on the face of all the earth.
