And Caanan will beget Sidon, his first-born, and Heth,

And the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgasite,

And the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite,

And the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite: and afterward the families of the Canaanites were dispersed.

These the sons of Ham according to their families, according to their tongues, in their lands, in their nations.
