New Testament

Genesis 10:6-12 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

6. And the Sons of Ham were Cush, and Mizraim, and Put, and Canaan.

7. And the sons of Cush were Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabteca. The sons of Raamah were Sheba and Dadan.

8. And then Cush conceived Nimrod; he began to be powerful on the earth.

9. And he was an able hunter before the Lord. From this, a proverb came forth: 'Just like Nimrod, an able hunter before the Lord.'

10. And so, the beginning of his kingdom was Babylon, and Erech, and Accad, and Chalanne, in the land of Shinar.

11. From that land, Assur came forth, and he built Nineveh, and the streets of the city, and Calah,

12. and also Resen, between Nineveh and Calah. This is a great city.
