He was a very great bowman, so that there is a saying, Like Nimrod, a very great bowman.
10:10
And at the first, his kingdom was Babel and Erech and Accad and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

And Resen between Nineveh and Calah, which is a very great town.
10:13

And the Jebusite and the Amorite and the Girgashite,
10:17

10:18
And the Arvadite and the Zemarite and the Hamathite; after that the families of the Canaanites went far and wide in all directions;
10:19
Their country stretching from Zidon to Gaza, in the direction of Gerar; and to Lasha, in the direction of Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboiim.
10:20
