Genesis 10:4-10
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 10
4The sons of Javan were Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim. 5From these the people of the coastlands of the nations were separated into their lands, every one according to his language, according to their families, into their nations.
6The sons of Ham were Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.
7The sons of Cush were Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca; and the sons of Raamah were Sheba and Dedan.
8Now Cush fathered Nimrod; he became a mighty one on the earth.
9He was a mighty hunter before the Lord; therefore it is said, 'Like Nimrod a mighty hunter before the Lord.'
10And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

Chapter 10
4And Javan’s sons: Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim. 5From these descendants, the peoples of the coasts and islands spread out into their lands according to their clans in their nations, each with its own language.New Living Translation
Chapter 10
4The descendants of Javan were Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Rodanim. 5Their descendants became the seafaring peoples that spread out to various lands, each identified by its own language, clan, and national identity.
8Cush was also the ancestor of Nimrod, who was the first heroic warrior on earth.
9Since he was the greatest hunter in the world, his name became proverbial. People would say, 'This man is like Nimrod, the greatest hunter in the world.'
10He built his kingdom in the land of Babylonia, with the cities of Babylon, Erech, Akkad, and Calneh.
