Genesis 10

1 Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah and of Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons were born to them after the flood.

挪亞的兒子閃、含、雅弗的後代記在下面。洪水以後，他們都生了兒子。

2 The sons of Japheth: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.

雅弗的兒子是歌篾、瑪各、瑪代、雅完、土巴、米設、提拉。

3 The sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.

歌篾的兒子是亞實基拿、利法、陀迦瑪。

4 The sons of Javan: Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Rodanim.

雅完的兒子是以利沙、他施、基提、多單。

5 From these, the coastlands of the nations separated into their territories, every one according to its language, according to their families, in their nations.

這些人的後裔將各國的地土、海島分開居住，各隨各的方言、宗族立國。

6 The sons of Ham: Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.

含的兒子是古實、麥西、弗、迦南。

7 The sons of Cush: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. The sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan.

古實的兒子是西巴、哈腓拉、撒弗他、拉瑪、撒弗提迦。拉瑪的兒子是示巴、底但。

8 Cush became the father of Nimrod. He began to be a mighty one on the earth.

古實又生寧錄，他為世上英雄之首。

9 He was a mighty hunter before God. Therefore it is said, "Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before God."

他在耶和華面前是個英勇的獵戶，所以俗語說：「像寧錄在耶和華面前是個英勇的獵戶。」

10 And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Akkad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

他國的起頭是巴別、以力、亞甲、甲尼，都在示拿地。

11 Out of that land he went forth into Assyria, and built Nineveh, and Rehoboth Ir, and Calah,

他從那地出來往亞述去，建造尼尼微、利河伯、迦拉，

12 and Resen, between Nineveh and the great city of Calah.

和尼尼微、迦拉中間的利鮮，這就是那大城。

13 And Mizraim became the father of Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,

麥西生路低人、亞拿米人、利哈比人、拿弗土希人、

14 And Pathrusim, and Casluhim, which the Philistines descended from, and Caphtorim.

帕斯魯細人、迦斯路希人、迦斐託人；從迦斐託出來的有非利士人。

15 And Canaan became the father of Sidon, his firstborn, and Heth,

迦南生長子西頓，又生赫

16 and the Jebusites, and the Amorites, and the Girgashites,

和耶布斯人、亞摩利人、革迦撒人、

17 and the Hivites, and the Arkites, and the Sinites,

希未人、亞基人、西尼人、

18 and the Arvadites, and the Zemarites, and the Hamathites. Afterward the families of the Canaanites were spread abroad.

亞瓦底人、洗瑪利人、哈馬人，後來迦南的諸族分散了。

19 And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as you go toward Gerar, to Gaza; as you go toward Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboiim, to Lasha.

迦南的境界是從西頓向基拉耳的路上，直到迦薩，又向所多瑪、蛾摩拉、押瑪、洗扁的路上，直到拉沙。

20 These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their languages, in their lands, in their nations.

這就是含的後裔，各隨他們的宗族、方言，所住的地土、邦國。

21 To Shem, the father of all the children of Eber, the elder brother of Japheth, to him also were children born.

雅弗的哥哥閃，是希伯子孫之祖，他也生了兒子。

22 The sons of Shem: Elam, and Asshur, and Arpachshad, and Lud, and Aram.

閃的兒子是以攔、亞述、亞法撒、路德、亞蘭。

23 The sons of Aram: Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.

亞蘭的兒子是烏斯、戶勒、基帖、瑪施。

24 And Arpachshad became the father of Kenan. And Kenan became the father of Shelah. And Shelah became the father of Eber.

亞法撒生沙拉；沙拉生希伯。

25 To Eber were born two sons. The name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided. His brother's name was Joktan.

希伯生了兩個兒子，一個名叫法勒，因為那時人就分地居住；法勒的兄弟名叫約坍。

26 And Joktan became the father of Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah,

約坍生亞摩答、沙列、哈薩瑪非、耶拉、

27 and Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah,

哈多蘭、烏薩、德拉、

28 and Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba,

俄巴路、亞比瑪利、示巴、

29 and Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab. All these were the sons of Joktan.

阿斐、哈腓拉、約巴，這都是約坍的兒子。

30 Their dwelling was from Mesha, as you go toward Sephar, the mountain of the east.

他們所住的地方是從米沙直到西發東邊的山。

31 These are the sons of Shem, after their families, after their languages, in their lands, after their nations.

這就是閃的子孫，各隨他們的宗族、方言，所住的地土、邦國。

32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations, and from these the nations branched out on the earth after the flood.

這些都是挪亞三個兒子的宗族，各隨他們的支派立國。洪水以後，他們在地上分為邦國。
