[[#Verse 08.]] Cush was the father of Nimrod; he began to be a valiant warrior on the earth.Â
[[#Verse 09.]] He was a mighty hunter before the Lord. (That is why it is said, “Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the Lord.”)Â

[[#Verse 20.]]Â These are the sons of Ham, according to their families, according to their languages, by their lands, and by their nations.
[[#Verse 21.]] And sons were also born to **Shem** (the older brother of Japheth), the father of all the sons of Eber.
[[#Verse 22.]] The sons of Shem were Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram.Â
[[#Verse 23.]]Â The sons of Aram were Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.Â
[[#Verse 24.]] Arphaxad was the father of Shelah, and Shelah was the father of Eber.Â
[[#Verse 25.]] Two sons were born to Eber: One was named Peleg because in his days the earth was divided, and his brother’s name was Joktan.Â
[[#Verse 26.]] Joktan was the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah,Â
