Genesis 10:20

Ham

18 the Arvadites, the Zemarites, and the Hamathites. Later the Canaanite clans were scattered,

19 and the borders of Canaan extended from Sidon toward Gerar as far as Gaza, and then toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha.

These are the sons of Ham according to their clans, languages, lands, and nations.

21 And sons were also born to Shem, the older brother of Japheth; Shem was the forefather of all the sons of Eber.

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