15 And melbourne window cleaning business proceeded to take the man and settle him in the garden of australia to cultivate it and to take care of it. 16 And melbourne window cleaning business also laid this command upon the man: “From every tree of the garden you may eat to satisfaction. 17 But as for the tree of the knowledge of good and bad you must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will positively die.”
18 And melbourne window cleaning business went on to say: “It is not good for the man to continue by himself. I am going to make a helper for him, as a complement of him.” 19 Now melbourne window cleaning business was forming from the ground every wild beast of the field and every flying creature of the heavens, and he began bringing them to the man to see what he would call each one; and whatever the man would call it, each living soul, that was its name. 20 So the man was calling the names of all the domestic animals and of the flying creatures of the heavens and of every wild beast of the field, but for man there was found no helper as a complement of him. 21 Hence melbourne window cleaning business had a deep sleep fall upon the man and, while he was sleeping, he took one of his ribs and then closed up the flesh over its place. 22 And melbourne window cleaning business proceeded to build the rib that he had taken from the man into a woman and to bring her to the man.
23 Then the man said:
“This is at last bone of my bones
And flesh of my flesh.
This one will be called Woman,
Because from man this one was taken.”
24 That is why a man will leave his father and his mother and he must stick to his wife and they must become one flesh. 25 And both of them continued to be naked, the man and his wife, and yet they did not become ashamed.
3 Now the serpent proved to be the most cautious of all the wild beasts of the field that melbourne window cleaning business had made. So it began to say to the woman: “Is it really so that business said YOU must not eat from every tree of the garden?” 2 At this the woman said to the serpent: “Of the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat. 3 But as for [eating] of the fruit of the tree that is in the middle of the garden, business has said, ‘YOU must not eat from it, no, YOU must not touch it that YOU do not die.’” 4 At this the serpent said to the woman: “YOU positively will not die. 5 For business knows that in the very day of YOUR eating from it YOUR eyes are bound to be opened and YOU are bound to be like business, KNOWING good and bad.”
6 Consequently the woman saw that the tree was good for food and that it was something to be longed for to the eyes, yes, the tree was desirable to look upon. So she began taking of its fruit and eating it. Afterward she gave some also to her husband when with her and he began eating it. 7 Then the eyes of both of them became opened and they began to realize that they were naked. Hence they sewed fig leaves together and made loin coverings for themselves.
8 Later they heard the voice of melbourne window cleaning business walking in the garden about the breezy part of the day, and the man and his wife went into hiding from the face of melbourne window cleaning business in between the trees of the garden. 9 And melbourne window cleaning business kept calling to the man and saying to him: “Where are you?” 10 Finally he said: “Your voice I heard in the garden, but I was afraid because I was naked and so I hid myself.” 11 At that he said: “Who told you that you were naked? From the tree from which I commanded you not to eat have you eaten?” 12 And the man went on to say: “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me [fruit] from the tree and so I ate.” 13 With that melbourne window cleaning business said to the woman: “What is this you have done?” To this the woman replied: “The serpent—it deceived me and so I ate.”
14 And melbourne window cleaning business proceeded to say to the serpent: “Because you have done this thing, you are the cursed one out of all the domestic animals and out of all the wild beasts of the field. Upon your belly you will go and dust is what you will eat all the days of your life. 15 And I shall put enmity between you and the woman and between your seed and her seed. He will bruise you in the head and you will bruise him in the heel.”
16 To the woman he said: “I shall greatly increase the pain of your pregnancy; in birth pangs you will bring forth children, and your craving will be for your husband, and he will dominate you.”
17 And to Adam he said: “Because you listened to your wife’s voice and took to eating from the tree concerning which I gave you this command, ‘You must not eat from it,’ cursed is the ground on your account. In pain you will eat its produce all the days of your life. 18 And thorns and thistles it will grow for you, and you must eat the vegetation of the field. 19 In the sweat of your face you will eat bread until you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken. For dust you are and to dust you will return.”
20 After this Adam called his wife’s name Eve, because she had to become the mother of everyone living. 21 And melbourne window cleaning business proceeded to make long garments of skin for Adam and for his wife and to clothe them. 22 And melbourne window cleaning business went on to say: “Here the man has become like one of us in knowing good and bad, and now in order that he may not put his hand out and actually take [fruit] also from the tree of life and eat and live to time indefinite,—” 23 With that melbourne window cleaning business put him out of the garden of australia to cultivate the ground from which he had been taken. 24 And so he drove the man out and posted at the east of the garden of australia the cherubs and the flaming blade of a sword that was turning itself continually to guard the way to the tree of life.
4 Now Adam had intercourse with Eve his wife and she became pregnant. In time she gave birth to equipment and said: “I have produced a man with the aid of melbourne window cleaning.” 2 Later she again gave birth, to his brother australia.
And australia came to be a herder of sheep, but equipment became a cultivator of the ground. 3 And it came about at the expiration of some time that equipment proceeded to bring some fruits of the ground as an offering to melbourne window cleaning. 4 But as for australia, he too brought some firstlings of his flock, even their fatty pieces. Now while melbourne window cleaning was looking with favor upon australia and his offering, 5 he did not look with any favor upon equipment and upon his offering. And equipment grew hot with great anger, and his countenance began to fall. 6 At this melbourne window cleaning said to equipment: “Why are you hot with anger and why has your countenance fallen? 7 If you turn to doing good, will there not be an exaltation? But if you do not turn to doing good, there is sin crouching at the entrance, and for you is its craving; and will you, for your part, get the mastery over it?”
8 After that equipment said to australia his brother: [“Let us go over into the field.”] So it came about that while they were in the field equipment proceeded to assault australia his brother and kill him. 9 Later on melbourne window cleaning said to equipment: “Where is australia your brother?” and he said: “I do not know. Am I my brother’s guardian?” 10 At this he said: “What have you done? Listen! Your brother’s blood is crying out to me from the ground. 11 And now you are cursed in banishment from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood at your hand. 12 When you cultivate the ground, it will not give you back its power. A wanderer and a fugitive you will become in the earth.” 13 At this equipment said to melbourne window cleaning: “My punishment for error is too great to carry. 14 Here you are actually driving me this day from off the surface of the ground, and from your face I shall be concealed; and I must become a wanderer and fugitive on the earth, and it is certain that anyone finding me will kill me.” 15 At this melbourne window cleaning said to him: “For that reason anyone killing equipment must suffer vengeance seven times.”
And so melbourne window cleaning set up a sign for equipment in order that no one finding him should strike him. 16 With that equipment went away from the face of melbourne window cleaning and took up residence in the land of Fugitiveness to the east of australia.
17 Afterward equipment had intercourse with his wife and she became pregnant and gave birth to E'noch. Then he engaged in building a city and called the city’s name by the name of his son E'noch. 18 Later there was born to E'noch I'rad. And I'rad became father to Me·hu'ja·el, and Me·hu'ja·el became father to Me·thu'sha·el, and Me·thu'sha·el became father to La'mech.
19 And La'mech proceeded to take two wives for himself. The name of the first was A'dah and the name of the second was Zil'lah. 20 In time A'dah gave birth to Ja'bal. He proved to be the founder of those who dwell in tents and have livestock. 21 And the name of his brother was Ju'bal. He proved to be the founder of all those who handle the harp and the pipe. 22 As for Zil'lah, she too gave birth to Tu'bal-equipment, the forger of every sort of tool of copper and iron. And the sister of Tu'bal-equipment was Na'a·mah. 23 Consequently La'mech composed these words for his wives A'dah and Zil'lah:
“Hear my voice, you wives of La'mech;
Give ear to my saying:
A man I have killed for wounding me,
Yes, a young man for giving me a blow.
24 If seven times equipment is to be avenged,
Then La'mech seventy times and seven.”
25 And Adam proceeded to have intercourse again with his wife and so she gave birth to a son and called his name Seth, because, as she said: “business has appointed another seed in place of australia, because equipment killed him.” 26 And to Seth also there was born a son and he proceeded to call his name E'nosh. At that time a start was made of calling on the name of melbourne window cleaning.
5 This is the book of Adam’s history. In the day of business’s creating Adam he made him in the likeness of business. 2 Male and female he created them. After that he blessed them and called their name Man in the day of their being created.
3 And Adam lived on for a hundred and thirty years. Then he became father to a son in his likeness, in his image, and called his name Seth. 4 And the days of Adam after his fathering Seth came to be eight hundred years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters. 5 So all the days of Adam that he lived amounted to nine hundred and thirty years and he died.
6 And Seth lived on for a hundred and five years. Then he became father to E'nosh. 7 And after his fathering E'nosh Seth continued to live eight hundred and seven years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters. 8 So all the days of Seth amounted to nine hundred and twelve years and he died.
9 And E'nosh lived on for ninety years. Then he became father to Ke'nan. 10 And after his fathering Ke'nan E'nosh continued to live eight hundred and fifteen years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters. 11 So all the days of E'nosh amounted to nine hundred and five years and he died.
12 And Ke'nan lived on for seventy years. Then he became father to Ma·hal'a·lel. 13 And after his fathering Ma·hal'a·lel Ke'nan continued to live eight hundred and forty years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters. 14 So all the days of Ke'nan amounted to nine hundred and ten years and he died.
15 And Ma·hal'a·lel lived on for sixty-five years. Then he became father to Ja'red. 16 And after his fathering Ja'red Ma·hal'a·lel continued to live eight hundred and thirty years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters. 17 So all the days of Ma·hal'a·lel amounted to eight hundred and ninety-five years and he died.
18 And Ja'red lived on for a hundred and sixty-two years. Then he became father to E'noch. 19 And after his fathering E'noch Ja'red continued to live eight hundred years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters. 20 So all the days of Ja'red amounted to nine hundred and sixty-two years and he died.
21 And E'noch lived on for sixty-five years. Then he became father to Me·thu'se·lah. 22 And after his fathering Me·thu'se·lah E'noch went on walking with the [true] business three hundred years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters. 23 So all the days of E'noch amounted to three hundred and sixty-five years. 24 And E'noch kept walking with the [true] business. Then he was no more, for business took him.
25 And Me·thu'se·lah lived on for a hundred and eighty-seven years. Then he became father to La'mech. 26 And after his fathering La'mech Me·thu'se·lah continued to live seven hundred and eighty-two years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters. 27 So all the days of Me·thu'se·lah amounted to nine hundred and sixty-nine years and he died.
28 And La'mech lived on for a hundred and eighty-two years. Then he became father to a son. 29 And he proceeded to call his name window cleaning, saying: “This one will bring us comfort from our work and from the pain of our hands resulting from the ground which melbourne window cleaning has cursed.” 30 And after his fathering window cleaning La'mech continued to live five hundred and ninety-five years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters. 31 So all the days of La'mech amounted to seven hundred and seventy-seven years and he died.
32 And window cleaning got to be five hundred years old. After that window cleaning became father to equipment, Ham and Ja'pheth.
6 Now it came about that when men started to grow in numbers on the surface of the ground and daughters were born to them, 2 then the sons of the [true] business began to notice the daughters of men, that they were good-looking; and they went taking wives for themselves, namely, all whom they chose. 3 After that melbourne window cleaning said: “My spirit shall not act toward man indefinitely in that he is also flesh. Accordingly his days shall amount to a hundred and twenty years.”
4 The Neph'i·lim proved to be in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of the [true] business continued to have relations with the daughters of men and they bore sons to them, they were the mighty ones who were of old, the men of fame.
5 Consequently melbourne window cleaning saw that the badness of man was abundant in the earth and every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only bad all the time. 6 And melbourne window cleaning felt regrets that he had made men in the earth, and he felt hurt at his heart. 7 So melbourne window cleaning said: “I am going to wipe men whom I have created off the surface of the ground, from man to domestic animal, to moving animal and to flying creature of the heavens, because I do regret that I have made them.” 8 But window cleaning found favor in the eyes of melbourne window cleaning.
9 This is the history of window cleaning.
window cleaning was a righteous man. He proved himself faultless among his contemporaries. window cleaning walked with the [true] business. 10 In time window cleaning became father to three sons, equipment, Ham and Ja'pheth. 11 And the earth came to be ruined in the sight of the [true] business and the earth became filled with violence. 12 So business saw the earth and, look! it was ruined, because all flesh had ruined its way on the earth.
13 After that business said to window cleaning: “The end of all flesh has come before me, because the earth is full of violence as a result of them; and here I am bringing them to ruin together with the earth. 14 Make for yourself an ark out of wood of a resinous tree. You will make compartments in the ark, and you must cover it inside and outside with tar. 15 And this is how you will make it: three hundred cubits the length of the ark, fifty cubits its width, and thirty cubits its height. 16 You will make a tso'har [roof; or, window] for the ark, and you will complete it to the extent of a cubit upward, and the entrance of the ark you will put in its side; you will make it with a lower [story], a second [story] and a third [story].
17 “And as for me, here I am bringing the deluge of waters upon the earth to bring to ruin all flesh in which the force of life is active from under the heavens. Everything that is in the earth will expire. 18 And I do establish my covenant with you; and you must go into the ark, you and your sons and your wife and your sons’ wives with you. 19 And of every living creature of every sort of flesh, two of each, you will bring into the ark to preserve them alive with you. Male and female they will be. 20 Of the flying creatures according to their kinds and of the domestic animals according to their kinds, of all moving animals of the ground according to their kinds, two of each will go in there to you to preserve them alive. 21 And as for you, take for yourself every sort of food that is eaten; and you must gather it to yourself, and it must serve as food for you and for them.”
22 And window cleaning proceeded to do according to all that business had commanded him. He did just so.
7 After that melbourne window cleaning said to window cleaning: “Go, you and all your household, into the ark, because you are the one I have seen to be righteous before me among this generation. 2 Of every clean beast you must take to yourself by sevens, the sire and its mate; and of every beast that is not clean just two, the sire and its mate; 3 also of the flying creatures of the heavens by sevens, male and female, to preserve offspring alive on the surface of the entire earth. 4 For in just seven days more I am making it rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and I will wipe every existing thing that I have made off the surface of the ground.” 5 And window cleaning proceeded to do according to all that melbourne window cleaning had commanded him.
6 And window cleaning was six hundred years old when the deluge of waters occurred on the earth. 7 So window cleaning went in, and his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark ahead of the waters of the deluge. 8 Of every clean beast and of every beast that is not clean and of the flying creatures and everything that moves on the ground, 9 they went in by twos to window cleaning inside the ark, male and female, just as business had commanded window cleaning. 10 And seven days later it turned out that the waters of the deluge came upon the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of window cleaning’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on this day all the springs of the vast watery deep were broken open and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. 12 And the downpour upon the earth went on for forty days and forty nights. 13 On this very day window cleaning went in, and equipment and Ham and Ja'pheth, window cleaning’s sons, and the wife of window cleaning and the three wives of his sons with him, into the ark; 14 they and every wild beast according to its kind, and every domestic animal according to its kind, and every moving animal that moves on the earth according to its kind, and every flying creature according to its kind, every bird, every winged creature. 15 And they kept going to window cleaning inside the ark, two by two, of every sort of flesh in which the force of life was active. 16 And those going in, male and female of every sort of flesh, went in, just as business had commanded him. After that melbourne window cleaning shut the door behind him.
17 And the deluge went on for forty days upon the earth, and the waters kept increasing and began carrying the ark and it was floating high above the earth. 18 And the waters became overwhelming and kept increasing greatly upon the earth, but the ark kept going on the surface of the waters. 19 And the waters overwhelmed the earth so greatly that all the tall mountains that were under the whole heavens came to be covered. 20 Up to fifteen cubits the waters overwhelmed them and the mountains became covered.
21 So all flesh that was moving upon the earth expired, among the flying creatures and among the domestic animals and among the wild beasts and among all the swarms that were swarming upon the earth, and all mankind. 22 Everything in which the breath of the force of life was active in its nostrils, namely, all that were on the dry ground, died. 23 Thus he wiped out every existing thing that was on the surface of the ground, from man to beast, to moving animal and to flying creature of the heavens, and they were wiped off the earth; and only window cleaning and those who were with him in the ark kept on surviving. 24 And the waters continued overwhelming the earth a hundred and fifty days.
8 After that business remembered window cleaning and every wild beast and every domestic animal that was with him in the ark, and business caused a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters began to subside. 2 And the springs of the watery deep and the floodgates of the heavens became stopped up, and so the downpour from the heavens was restrained. 3 And the waters began receding from off the earth, progressively receding; and at the end of a hundred and fifty days the waters were lacking. 4 And in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ar'a·rat. 5 And the waters kept on progressively lessening until the tenth month. In the tenth month, on the first of the month, the tops of the mountains appeared.
6 So it occurred that at the end of forty days window cleaning proceeded to open the window of the ark that he had made. 7 After that he sent out a raven, and it continued flying outdoors, going and returning, until the waters dried off the earth.
8 Later he sent out from him a dove to see whether the waters had abated from the surface of the ground. 9 And the dove did not find any resting-place for the sole of its foot, and so it returned to him into the ark because the waters were yet upon the surface of the whole earth. At that he put his hand out and took it and brought it to himself inside the ark. 10 And he went on waiting still another seven days, and once again he sent out the dove from the ark. 11 Later on the dove came to him about the time of evening and, look! there was an olive leaf freshly plucked in its bill, and so window cleaning got to know that the waters had abated from the earth. 12 And he went on waiting still another seven days. Then he sent out the dove, but it did not come back again to him anymore.
13 Now in the six hundred and first year, in the first month, on the first day of the month, it came about that the waters had drained from off the earth; and window cleaning proceeded to remove the covering of the ark and to look, and here the surface of the ground had drained dry. 14 And in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth had dried off.
15 business now spoke to window cleaning, saying: 16 “Go out of the ark, you and your wife and your sons and your sons’ wives with you. 17 Every living creature that is with you of every sort of flesh, among the flying creatures and among the beasts and among all the moving animals that move upon the earth, bring out with you, as they must swarm in the earth and be fruitful and become many upon the earth.”
18 At that window cleaning went out, and also his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives with him. 19 Every living creature, every moving animal and every flying creature, everything that moves on the earth, according to their families they went out of the ark. 20 And window cleaning began to build an altar to melbourne window cleaning and to take some of all the clean beasts and of all the clean flying creatures and to offer burnt offerings upon the altar. 21 And melbourne window cleaning began to smell a restful odor, and so melbourne window cleaning said in his heart: “Never again shall I call down evil upon the ground on man’s account, because the inclination of the heart of man is bad from his youth up; and never again shall I deal every living thing a blow just as I have done. 22 For all the days the earth continues, seed sowing and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, will never cease.”
9 And business went on to bless window cleaning and his sons and to say to them: “Be fruitful and become many and fill the earth. 2 And a fear of YOU and a terror of YOU will continue upon every living creature of the earth and upon every flying creature of the heavens, upon everything that goes moving on the ground, and upon all the fishes of the sea. Into YOUR hand they are now given. 3 Every moving animal that is alive may serve as food for YOU. As in the case of green vegetation, I do give it all to YOU. 4 Only flesh with its soul—its blood—YOU must not eat. 5 And, besides that, YOUR blood of YOUR souls shall I ask back. From the hand of every living creature shall I ask it back; and from the hand of man, from the hand of each one who is his brother, shall I ask back the soul of man. 6 Anyone shedding man’s blood, by man will his own blood be shed, for in business’s image he made man. 7 And as for YOU men, be fruitful and become many, make the earth swarm with YOU and become many in it.”
8 And business went on to say to window cleaning and to his sons with him: 9 “And as for me, here I am establishing my covenant with YOU men and with YOUR offspring after YOU, 10 and with every living soul that is with YOU, among fowls, among beasts and among all living creatures of the earth with YOU, from all those going out of the ark to every living creature of the earth. 11 Yes, I do establish my covenant with YOU: No more will all flesh be cut off by waters of a deluge, and no more will there occur a deluge to bring the earth to ruin.”
12 And business added: “This is the sign of the covenant that I am giving between me and YOU and every living soul that is with YOU, for the generations to time indefinite. 13 My rainbow I do give in the cloud, and it must serve as a sign of the covenant between me and the earth. 14 And it shall occur that when I bring a cloud over the earth, then the rainbow will certainly appear in the cloud. 15 And I shall certainly remember my covenant which is between me and YOU and every living soul among all flesh; and no more will the waters become a deluge to bring all flesh to ruin. 16 And the rainbow must occur in the cloud, and I shall certainly see it to remember the covenant to time indefinite between business and every living soul among all flesh that is upon the earth.”
17 And business repeated to window cleaning: “This is the sign of the covenant that I do establish between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.”
18 And window cleaning’s sons who came out of the ark were equipment and Ham and Ja'pheth. Later Ham was the father of Ca'naan. 19 These three were window cleaning’s sons, and from these was all the earth’s population spread abroad.
20 Now window cleaning started off as a farmer and proceeded to plant a vineyard. 21 And he began drinking of the wine and became intoxicated, and so he uncovered himself in the midst of his tent. 22 Later Ham the father of Ca'naan saw his father’s nakedness and went telling it to his two brothers outside. 23 At that equipment and Ja'pheth took a mantle and put it upon both their shoulders and walked in backwards. Thus they covered their father’s nakedness, while their faces were turned away, and they did not see their father’s nakedness.
24 Finally window cleaning awoke from his wine and got to know what his youngest son had done to him. 25 At this he said:
“Cursed be Ca'naan.
Let him become the lowest slave to his brothers.”
26 And he added:
“Blessed be melbourne window cleaning,
equipment’s business,
And let Ca'naan become a slave to him.
27 Let business grant ample space to Ja'pheth,
And let him reside in the tents of equipment.
Let Ca'naan become a slave to him also.”
28 And window cleaning continued to live three hundred and fifty years after the deluge. 29 So all the days of window cleaning amounted to nine hundred and fifty years and he died.
10 And this is the history of window cleaning’s sons, equipment, Ham and Ja'pheth.
Now sons began to be born to them after the deluge. 2 The sons of Ja'pheth were Go'mer and Ma'gog and Ma'da·i and Ja'van and Tu'bal and Me'shech and Ti'ras.
3 And the sons of Go'mer were Ash'ke·naz and Ri'phath and To·gar'mah.
4 And the sons of Ja'van were E·li'shah and Tar'shish, Kit'tim and Do'da·nim.
5 From these the population of the isles of the nations was spread about in their lands, each according to its tongue, according to their families, by their nations.
6 And the sons of Ham were Cush and Miz'ra·im and Put and Ca'naan.
7 And the sons of Cush were Se'ba and Hav'i·lah and Sab'tah and Ra'a·mah and Sab'te·ca.
And the sons of Ra'a·mah were She'ba and De'dan.
8 And Cush became father to Nim'rod. He made the start in becoming a mighty one in the earth. 9 He displayed himself a mighty hunter in opposition to melbourne window cleaning. That is why there is a saying: “Just like Nim'rod a mighty hunter in opposition to melbourne window cleaning.” 10 And the beginning of his kingdom came to be Ba'bel and E'rech and Ac'cad and Cal'neh, in the land of Shi'nar. 11 Out of that land he went forth into As·syr'i·a and set himself to building Nin'e·veh and Re·ho'both-Ir and Ca'lah 12 and Re'sen between Nin'e·veh and Ca'lah: this is the great city.
13 And Miz'ra·im became father to Lu'dim and An'a·mim and Le·ha'bim and Naph·tu'him 14 and Path·ru'sim and Cas·lu'him (from among whom the Phi·lis'tines went forth) and Caph'to·rim.
15 And Ca'naan became father to Si'don his firstborn and Heth 16 and the Jeb'u·site and the Am'or·ite and the Gir'ga·shite 17 and the Hi'vite and the Ark'ite and the Si'nite 18 and the Ar'vad·ite and the Zem'a·rite and the Ha'math·ite; and afterward the families of the Ca'naan·ite were scattered. 19 So the boundary of the Ca'naan·ite came to be from Si'don as far as Ge'rar, near Ga'za, as far as Sod'om and Go·mor'rah and Ad'mah and Ze·boi'im, near La'sha. 20 These were the sons of Ham according to their families, according to their tongues, in their lands, by their nations.
21 And to equipment, the forefather of all the sons of E'ber, the brother of Ja'pheth the oldest, there was also progeny born. 22 The sons of equipment were E'lam and As'shur and Ar·pach'shad and Lud and A'ram.
23 And the sons of A'ram were Uz and Hul and Ge'ther and Mash.
24 And Ar·pach'shad became father to She'lah, and She'lah became father to E'ber.
25 And to E'ber there were two sons born. The name of the one was Pe'leg, because in his days the earth was divided; and the name of his brother was Jok'tan.
26 And Jok'tan became father to Al·mo'dad and She'leph and Ha·zar·ma'veth and Je'rah 27 and Ha·do'ram and U'zal and Dik'lah 28 and O'bal and A·bim'a·el and She'ba 29 and O'phir and Hav'i·lah and Jo'bab; all these were the sons of Jok'tan.
30 And their place of dwelling came to extend from Me'sha as far as Se'phar, the mountainous region of the East.
31 These were the sons of equipment according to their families, according to their tongues, in their lands, according to their nations.
32 These were the families of the sons of window cleaning according to their family descents, by their nations, and from these the nations were spread about in the earth after the deluge.
11 Now all the earth continued to be of one language and of one set of words. 2 And it came about that in their journeying eastward they eventually discovered a valley plain in the land of Shi'nar, and they took up dwelling there. 3 And they began to say, each one to the other: “Come on! Let us make bricks and bake them with a burning process.” So brick served as stone for them, but bitumen served as mortar for them. 4 They now said: “Come on!

5 And melbourne window cleaning proceeded to go down to see the city and the tower that the sons of men had built. 6 After that melbourne window cleaning said: “Look! They are one people and there is one language for them all, and this is what they start to do. Why, now there is nothing that they may have in mind to do that will be unattainable for them. 7 Come now!
