Shem, Arphaxad, Shelah,

Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

This is the account of Shem. Shem was 100 old when he became the father of Arphaxad, two years after the flood.

The sons of Shem were Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram.

These are the sons of Shem according to their families, according to their languages, by their lands, and according to their nations.

Noah had three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

He also said, “Worthy of praise is the Lord, the God of Shem! May Canaan be the slave of Shem!

May God enlarge Japheth’s territory and numbers! May he live in the tents of Shem and may Canaan be his slave!”

This is the account of Noah’s sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons were born to them after the flood.

And sons were also born to Shem (the older brother of Japheth), the father of all the sons of Eber.

And after becoming the father of Arphaxad, Shem lived 500 years and had other sons and daughters.

The sons of Shem: Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram. The sons of Aram: Uz, Hul, Gether, and Meshech.

After Noah was 500 years old, he became the father of Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

On that very day Noah entered the ark, accompanied by his sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, along with his wife and his sons’ three wives.

The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. (Now Ham was the father of Canaan.)

Shem and Japheth took the garment and placed it on their shoulders. Then they walked in backwards and covered up their father’s nakedness. Their faces were turned the other way so they did not see their father’s nakedness.
