Genesis 10:6-12

The Table of Nations,

The Hamites.

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

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

8. Cush was the father of Nimrod, who became a mighty warrior on the earth.

9. He was a mighty hunter before the Lord; that is why it is said, “Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the Lord.”

10. The first centers of his kingdom were Babylon, Uruk, Akkad and Kalneh, in Shinar.

11. From that land he went to Assyria, where he built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah

12. and Resen, which is between Nineveh and Calah—which is the great city.
