Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Now this is the history of the generations of the sons of Noah and of Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons were born to them after the flood.
1Hæ sunt generationes filiorum Noë, Sem, Cham et Japheth: natique sunt eis filii post diluvium.
2The sons of Japheth were: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.
2Filii Japheth: Gomer, et Magog, et Madai, et Javan, et Thubal, et Mosoch, et Thiras.
3The sons of Gomer were: Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.
3Porro filii Gomer: Ascenez et Riphath et Thogorma.
4The sons of Javan were: Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.
4Filii autem Javan: Elisa et Tharsis, Cetthim et Dodanim.
5Of these were the islands of the nations divided in their lands, everyone after his language, after their families, in their nations.
5Ab his divisæ sunt insulæ gentium in regionibus suis, unusquisque secundum linguam suam et familias suas in nationibus suis.
6The sons of Ham were: Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.
6Filii autem Cham: Chus, et Mesraim, et Phuth, et Chanaan.
7The sons of Cush were: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. The sons of Raamah were: Sheba and Dedan.
7Filii Chus: Saba, et Hevila, et Sabatha, et Regma, et Sabatacha. Filii Regma: Saba et Dadan.
8Cush became the father of Nimrod. He began to be a mighty one on the earth.
8Porro Chus genuit Nemrod: ipse cœpit esse potens in terra,
9He was a mighty hunter before the LORD. Therefore it is said, “like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the LORD”.
9et erat robustus venator coram Domino. Ob hoc exivit proverbium: Quasi Nemrod robustus venator coram Domino.
10The beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
10Fuit autem principium regni ejus Babylon, et Arach et Achad, et Chalanne, in terra Sennaar.
11Out of that land he went into Assyria, and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah,
11De terra illa egressus est Assur, et ædificavit Niniven, et plateas civitatis, et Chale.
12and Resen between Nineveh and the great city Calah.
12Resen quoque inter Niniven et Chale: hæc est civitas magna.
13Mizraim became the father of Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim,
13At vero Mesraim genuit Ludim, et Anamim et Laabim, Nephthuim,
14Pathrusim, Casluhim (which the Philistines descended from), and Caphtorim.
14et Phetrusim, et Chasluim: de quibus egressi sunt Philisthiim et Caphtorim.
15Canaan became the father of Sidon (his firstborn), Heth,
15Chanaan autem genuit Sidonem primogenitum suum. Hethæum,
16the Jebusites, the Amorites, the Girgashites,
16et Jebusæum, et Amorrhæum, Gergesæum,
17the Hivites, the Arkites, the Sinites,
17Hevæum, et Aracæum: Sinæum,
18the Arvadites, the Zemarites, and the Hamathites. Afterward the families of the Canaanites were spread abroad.
18et Aradium, Samaræum, et Amathæum: et post hæc disseminati sunt populi Chananæorum.
19The border of the Canaanites was from Sidon—as you go toward Gerar—to Gaza—as you go toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim—to Lasha.
19Factique sunt termini Chanaan venientibus a Sidone Geraram usque Gazam, donec ingrediaris Sodomam et Gomorrham, et Adamam, et Seboim usque Lesa.
20These are the sons of Ham, after their families, according to their languages, in their lands and their nations.
20Hi sunt filii Cham in cognationibus, et linguis, et generationibus, terrisque et gentibus suis.
21Children were also born to Shem (the elder brother of Japheth), the father of all the children of Eber.
21De Sem quoque nati sunt, patre omnium filiorum Heber, fratre Japheth majore.
22The sons of Shem were: Elam, Asshur, Arpachshad, Lud, and Aram.
22Filii Sem: Ælam, et Assur, et Arphaxad, et Lud, et Aram.
23The sons of Aram were: Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.
23Filii Aram: Us, et Hul, et Gether, et Mes.
24Arpachshad became the father of Shelah. Shelah became the father of Eber.
24At vero Arphaxad genuit Sale, de quo ortus est Heber.
25To 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.
25Natique sunt Heber filii duo: nomen uni Phaleg, eo quod in diebus ejus divisa sit terra: et nomen fratris ejus Jectan.
26Joktan became the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah,
26Qui Jectan genuit Elmodad, et Saleph, et Asarmoth, Jare,
27Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,
27et Aduram, et Uzal, et Decla,
28Obal, Abimael, Sheba,
28et Ebal, et Abimaël, Saba,
29Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All these were the sons of Joktan.
29et Ophir, et Hevila, et Jobab: omnes isti, filii Jectan.
30Their dwelling extended from Mesha, as you go toward Sephar, the mountain of the east.
30Et facta est habitatio eorum de Messa pergentibus usque Sephar montem orientalem.
31These are the sons of Shem, by their families, according to their languages, lands, and nations.
31Isti filii Sem secundum cognationes, et linguas, et regiones in gentibus suis.
32These are the families of the sons of Noah, by their generations, according to their nations. The nations divided from these on the earth after the flood.
32Hæ familiæ Noë juxta populos et nationes suas. Ab his divisæ sunt gentes in terra post diluvium.
