1 Šie ir Noas dēlu ciltsraksti: Šemam, Hamam un Jafetam pēc ūdensplūdiem piedzima dēli. 2 Jafeta dēli ir: Gomers un Magogs, Madajs, Javans, Tubals, Mešehs un Tīrass. 3 Bet Gomera dēli: Aškanass, Ripats un Togarma. 4 Un Javana dēli: Elīsa, Taršišs, kitieši un dodajieši. 5 No šiem atzarojās salu iedzīvotāji savās zemēs, pēc savām valodām, pēc savām ciltīm savās tautās. 6 Bet Hama dēli ir: Kušs, Mizraims, Puts un Kānaāns. 7 Bet Kuša dēli ir: Seba, Havila, Sabta, Raāma un Sabteka; bet Raāmas dēli ir: Saba un Dedans. 8 Kušs dzemdināja Nimrodu; tas sāka varoņu gaitas zemes virsū. 9 Viņš bija varonīgs mednieks Tā Kunga priekšā, kādēļ tiek sacīts: kā Nimrods, tik varens mednieks Tā Kunga priekšā. 10 Un viņa ķēniņa valsts sākums bija Babilonijā, Arakā, Akadā un Kalnē - Sineāras zemē. 11 No šīs zemes izgāja Asurs un uzcēla Ninivi, Rehobotas pilsētu un Kalni, 12 arī Reseni starp Ninivi un Kalni - šī ir tā lielā pilsēta. 13 Bet Mizraims dzemdināja Ludimu, Anamimu, Leobimu un Naftuimu, 14 arī Patrusimu un Kasluhimu; no tiem cēlušies filistieši un kaftorieši. 15 Bet Kānaāns dzemdināja Sidonu, savu pirmdzimto, un Hetu, 16 un jebusiešus, amoriešus un girgasiešus, 17 hīviešus, arkiešus un sīniešus, 18 arvadiešus, cemariešus un hamatiešus, un pēc tam kānaāniešu ciltis sadalījās. 19 Šī bija robeža kānaāniešiem: no Sidonas virzienā uz Gerāru līdz Gazai, bet virzienā uz Sodomu, Gomoru, Ādamu un Cebojimu līdz Lāšai. 20 Tie bija Hama dēli pēc savām dzimtām, pēc savām valodām, savās zemēs un savās tautās. 21 Un arī Šemam dzima dēli; viņš ir visu Ēbera dēlu tēvs, Jafeta vecākais brālis. 22 Šema dēli ir: Ēlams un Asurs, Arpahsads, Luds un Arams. 23 Arama dēli ir: Ūcs un Hūls, Gēters un Mašs. 24 Bet Arpahsads dzemdināja Šelu, bet Šela - Ēberu. 25 Bet Ēberam tika dzemdēti divi dēli: viena dēla vārds ir Pelegs, jo tas dzima zemes sadalīšanas laikā, bet viņa brāļa vārds ir Joktans. 26 Bet Joktans dzemdināja Almodadu, Šalepu, Hazarmavetu un Jarahu, 27 Hadorāmu, Ūzelu un Diklu, 28 Obelu, Abimaēlu un Sebu, 29 Ofīru, Havilu un Jobabu. Šie visi ir Joktana pēcnācēji. 30 Un viņu dzīves vietas sniedzās no Mešas virzienā uz Sefaru austrumu kalnājos. 31 Tie ir Šema dēli pēc savām ciltīm, pēc savām valodām, savās zemēs un savās tautās. 32 Un šīs ir Noas dēlu ciltis pēc savām dzimtām savās tautās, un no tiem pēc plūdiem izplatījās šīs tautas zemes virsū.
The Descendants of Noah's Sons
(1 Chronicles 1.5-23)1 These are the descendants of Noah's sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. These three had sons after the flood.
2 The sons of Japheth—Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras—were the ancestors of the peoples who bear their names. 3 The descendants of Gomer were the people of Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah. 4 The descendants of Javan were the people of Elishah, Spain, Cyprus, and Rhodes; 5 they were the ancestors of the people who live along the coast and on the islands. These are the descendants of Japheth, living in their different tribes and countries, each group speaking its own language.
6 The sons of Ham—Cush, Egypt, Libya, and Canaan—were the ancestors of the peoples who bear their names. 7 The descendants of Cush were the people of Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. The descendants of Raamah were the people of Sheba and Dedan. 8 Cush had a son named Nimrod, who became the world's first great conqueror. 9 By the Lord's help he was a great hunter, and that is why people say, “May the Lord make you as great a hunter as Nimrod!” 10 At first his kingdom included Babylon, Erech, and Accad, all three of them in Babylonia. 11 From that land he went to Assyria and built the cities of Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah, 12 and Resen, which is between Nineveh and the great city of Calah.
13 The descendants of Egypt were the people of Lydia, Anam, Lehab, Naphtuh, 14 Pathrus, Casluh, and of Crete, from whom the Philistines are descended.
15 Canaan's sons—Sidon, the oldest, and Heth—were the ancestors of the peoples who bear their names. 16 Canaan was also the ancestor of the Jebusites, the Amorites, the Girgashites, 17 the Hivites, the Arkites, the Sinites, 18 the Arvadites, the Zemarites, and the Hamathites. The different tribes of the Canaanites spread out, 19 until the Canaanite borders reached from Sidon southward to Gerar near Gaza, and eastward to Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim near Lasha. 20 These are the descendants of Ham, living in their different tribes and countries, each group speaking its own language.
21 Shem, the older brother of Japheth, was the ancestor of all the Hebrews. 22 Shem's sons—Elam, Asshur, Arpachshad, Lud, and Aram—were the ancestors of the peoples who bear their names. 23 The descendants of Aram were the people of Uz, Hul, Gether, and Meshek. 24 Arpachshad was the father of Shelah, who was the father of Eber. 25 Eber had two sons: one was named Peleg, because during his time the people of the world were divided; and the other was named Joktan. 26 The descendants of Joktan were the people of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah, 27 Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah, 28 Obal, Abimael, Sheba, 29 Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All of them were descended from Joktan. 30 The land in which they lived extended from Mesha to Sephar in the eastern hill country. 31 These are the descendants of Shem, living in their different tribes and countries, each group speaking its own language.
32 All these peoples are the descendants of Noah, nation by nation, according to their different lines of descent. After the flood all the nations of the earth were descended from the sons of Noah.
