1This is the account of Noah’s sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, who also had sons after the flood.
1Ko eni ʻae tala hohoko ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo Noa, ko Semi, mo Hami, mo Sefeti: pea naʻe fanauʻi kiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi foha hili ʻae lōmaki.
2The sons of Japheth: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.
2Ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Sefeti; ko Komela, mo Mekoki, mo Metai, mo Savani, mo Tupale, mo Meseke, mo Tailasa.
3The sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.
3Pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Komela; ko ʻAsekinasa, mo Lifata, mo Tokama.
4And the sons of Javan: Elishah, Tarshish, the Kittites, and the Rodanites.
4Pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Savani; ko ʻElaisa, mo Taʻasisi, mo Ketimi, mo Totenimi.
5From these, the maritime peoples separated into their territories, according to their languages, by clans within their nations.
5Naʻe vahevahe kiate kinautolu ni ʻae ngaahi fonua ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga ke nau fonua ʻaki; ke taki taha ʻi hono lea mo honau faʻahinga, pea mo honau ngaahi puleʻanga.
6The sons of Ham: Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.
6¶ Pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Hami; ko Kusa, mo Misilemi, mo Futi, mo Kēnani.
7The sons of Cush: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. And the sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan.
7Pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Kusa; ko Sipa, mo Havila, mo Sapita, mo Leama, mo Sapetika: pea ko e ongo foha ʻo Leama; ko Sipa, mo Titani.
8Cush was the father of Nimrod, who began to be a mighty one on the earth.
8Pea naʻe tupu ia Kusa, ʻa Nimilote: pea naʻe hoko ia ko e tokotaha lahi ʻi māmani.
9He was a mighty hunter before the LORD; so it is said, “Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the LORD.”
9Ko e tangata tuli manu fakamanavahē ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻEiki: ko ia ʻoku ai ʻae lea ʻoku pehē, “ʻO hangē ko Nimilote ko e tuli manu lahi ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻEiki.”
10His kingdom began in Babylon, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
10Pea ko e kamataʻanga ʻo hono puleʻanga ko Pepeli, mo ʻIleke, mo ʻAkata, mo Kalina, ʻi he fonua ko Saina.
11From that land he went forth into Assyria, where he built Nineveh, Rehoboth-Ir, Calah,
11Naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa ʻAsilia mei he fonua ko ia, pea ne langa ʻa Ninive, mo e kolo ko Leopote, mo Kela,
12and Resen, which is between Nineveh and the great city of Calah.
12Mo Lisini ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo Ninive mo Kela: ko e kolo lahi ia.
13Mizraim was the father of the Ludites, the Anamites, the Lehabites, the Naphtuhites,
13Pea naʻe tupu ia Misilemi ʻa Lutimi, mo ʻAnamemi, mo Lehapimi, mo Nafituhemi,
14the Pathrusites, the Casluhites (from whom the Philistines came), and the Caphtorites.
14Mo Patilusime, mo Kasiluhemi, (naʻe tupu mei ai ʻa Filisitia,) mo Kafitolime.
15And Canaan was the father of Sidon his firstborn, and of the Hittites,
15¶ Pea naʻe tupu ia Kēnani ʻa Saitoni ko hono ʻuluaki, mo Heti,
16the Jebusites, the Amorites, the Girgashites,
16Mo e kakai Sepusi, mo e ʻAmoli, mo e Keakasa,
17the Hivites, the Arkites, the Sinites,
17Mo e Hevi, mo e ʻAlaka, mo e Sina,
18the Arvadites, the Zemarites, and the Hamathites. Later the Canaanite clans were scattered,
18Mo e ʻAvati, mo e Semali, mo e Hemati; pea hili ia naʻe movete atu ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo Kēnani.
19and the borders of Canaan extended from Sidon toward Gerar as far as Gaza, and then toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha.
19Pea ko e ngataʻanga fonua ʻoe kakai Kēnani naʻe fai mei Saitoni, ʻi hoʻo haʻu mei Kilai ki Kesa; ʻi hoʻo ʻalu ai ki Sotoma mo Komola, mo ʻAtima, mo Sipoimi ʻo aʻu ki Lesa.
20These are the sons of Ham according to their clans, languages, lands, and nations.
20Ko e ngaahi foha eni ʻo Hami, ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga, mo e nau ngaahi lea, ʻi honau ngaahi fonua, mo honau ngaahi puleʻanga.
21And sons were also born to Shem, the older brother of Japheth; Shem was the forefather of all the sons of Eber.
21¶ Ko Semi foki, ʻaia ko e tamai ʻae fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIpela, ko e tehina ʻo Sefeti ko e lahi, naʻe ai foki ʻae fānau kiate ia.
22The sons of Shem: Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram.
22Ko e fānau ʻa Semi; ko ʻIlami, mo ʻAsuli, mo ʻAfakisati, mo Luti, mo ʻElami.
23The sons of Aram: Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.
23Pea ko e fānau ʻa ʻElami; ko ʻUsi, mo Uli, mo Ketali, mo Masi.
24Arphaxad was the father of Shelah, and Shelah was the father of Eber.
24Pea naʻe tupu ia ʻAfakisati ʻa Sela, pea fakatupu ʻe Sela ʻa ʻIpela.
25Two sons were born to Eber: One was named Peleg, because in his days the earth was divided, and his brother was named Joktan.
25Pea naʻe fanauʻi kia ʻIpela ʻae ongo foha; ko e hingoa ʻoe tokotaha ko Peleki: he naʻe vahevahe ʻae fonua ʻi hono ngaahi ʻaho; pea ko e hingoa ʻo hono tokoua ko Sokitani.
26And Joktan was the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah,
26Pea naʻe tupu ia Sokitani ʻa ʻAlimotate, mo Silefi, mo Hesamevete, mo Sela,
27Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,
27Mo Hatolame, mo ʻUsali, mo Tikila,
28Obal, Abimael, Sheba,
28Mo ʻOpale, mo ʻApimaeli, mo Sipa.
29Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All these were sons of Joktan.
29Mo ʻOfeli, mo Havila, mo Sopapi: ko e ngaahi foha eni kotoa pē ʻo Sokitani.
30Their territory extended from Mesha to Sephar, in the eastern hill country.
30Pea ko honau nofoʻanga naʻe fai mei Mesa, ʻi hoʻo ʻalu ʻo aʻu ki Sefa ko e moʻunga ʻi hahake.
31These are the sons of Shem, according to their clans, languages, lands, and nations.
31Ko e ngaahi foha eni ʻo Semi, ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga, mo e nau ngaahi lea, mo honau ngaahi fonua, mo honau ngaahi puleʻanga.
32All these are the clans of Noah’s sons, according to their generations and nations. From these the nations of the earth spread out after the flood.
32Ko eni ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo Noa, mo honau ngaahi toʻutangata, ʻi honau ngaahi puleʻanga: pea naʻe vahe vahe ʻiate kinautolu ni ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ʻo māmani, hili ʻae lōmaki.
