Here is a list of the seventy nations.
They are numbered from 1 to 70 in order of appearance. Names marked with an asterisk are represented by their children.
Genesis 10
1 Now these are the generations of the sons of *Noah: *Shem, *Ham, and *Japheth; and unto them were sons born after the flood. 2 The sons of *Japheth: *Gomer, and (1) Magog, and (2) Madai, and *Javan, and (3) Tubal, and (4) Meshech, and (5) Tiras. 3 And the sons of *Gomer: (6) Ashkenaz, and (7) Riphath, and (8) Togarmah. 4 And the sons of *Javan: (9) Elishah, and (10) Tarshish, (11) Kittim, and (12) Dodanim. 5 Of these were the isles of the nations divided in their lands, every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations.
6 And the sons of *Ham: *Cush, and *Mizraim, and (13) Put, and *Canaan. 7 And the sons of *Cush: (14) Seba, and (15) Havilah, and (16) Sabtah, and *Raamah, and (17) Sabteca; and the sons of *Raamah: (18) Sheba, and (19) Dedan. 8 And *Cush begot Nimrod; he began to be a mighty one in the earth. 9 He was a mighty hunter before HaShem; wherefore it is said: 'Like Nimrod a mighty hunter before HaShem.' 10 And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar. 11 Out of that land went forth Asshur, and builded Nineveh, and Rehoboth-ir, and Calah, 12 and Resen between Nineveh and Calah--the same is the great city. 13 And *Mizraim begot (20) Ludim, and (21) Anamim, and (22) Lehabim, and (23) Naphtuhim, 14 and (24) Pathrusim, and *Casluhim--whence went forth the (25) Philistines--and (26) Caphtorim.
15 And *Canaan begot (27) Zidon his firstborn, and (28) Heth; 16 and the (29) Jebusite, and the (30) Amorite, and the (31) Girgashite; 17 and the (32) Hivite, and the (33) Arkite, and the (34) Sinite; 18 and the (35) Arvadite, and the (36) Zemarite, and the (37) Hamathite; and afterward were the families of the Canaanite spread abroad. 19 And the border of the *Canaanite was from Zidon, as thou goest toward Gerar, unto Gaza; as thou goest toward Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboiim, unto Lasha. 20 These are the sons of *Ham, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, in their nations.
21 And unto *Shem, the father of all the children of *Eber, the elder brother of *Japheth, to him also were children born. 22 The sons of *Shem: (38) Elam, and (39) Asshur, and *Arpachshad, and (40) Lud, and *Aram. 23 And the sons of *Aram: (41) Uz, and (42) Hul, and (43) Gether, and (44) Mash. 24 And *Arpachshad begot *Shelah; and *Shelah begot *Eber. 25 And unto *Eber were born two sons; the name of the one was (45) Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother's name was Joktan. 26 And *Joktan begot (46) Almodad, and (47) Sheleph, and (48) Hazarmaveth, and (49) Jerah; 27 and (50) Hadoram, and (51) Uzal, and (52) Diklah; 28 and (53) Obal, and (54) Abimael, and (55) Sheba; 29 and (56) Ophir, and (57) Havilah, and (58) Jobab; all these were the sons of Joktan. 30 And their dwelling was from Mesha, as thou goest toward Sephar, unto the mountain of the east. 31 These are the sons of *Shem, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, after their nations. 32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations; and of these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.
Genesis 11
10 These are the generations of *Shem. *Shem was a hundred years old, and begot *Arpachshad two years after the flood. 11 And *Shem lived after he begot *Arpachshad five hundred years, and begot (59) sons and daughters. 12 And *Arpachshad lived five and thirty years, and begot *Shelah. 13 And *Arpachshad lived after he begot *Shelah four hundred and three years, and begot (60) sons and daughters. 14 And *Shelah lived thirty years, and begot *Eber. 15 And *Shelah lived after he begot *Eber four hundred and three years, and begot (61) sons and daughters. 16 And *Eber lived four and thirty years, and begot *Peleg. 17 And *Eber lived after he begot *Peleg four hundred and thirty years, and (=Joktan) begot sons and daughters . 18 And *Peleg lived thirty years, and begot *Reu. 19 And *Peleg lived after he begot *Reu two hundred and nine years, and begot (62) sons and daughters. 20 And *Reu lived two and thirty years, and begot *Serug. 21 And *Reu lived after he begot *Serug two hundred and seven years, and begot (63) sons and daughters. 22 And *Serug lived thirty years, and begot *Nahor. 23 And *Serug lived after he begot *Nahor two hundred years, and begot (64) sons and daughters. 24 And *Nahor lived nine and twenty years, and begot *Terah. 25 And *Nahor lived after he begot *Terah a hundred and nineteen years, and begot (65) sons and daughters (of Terah). 26 And *Terah lived seventy years, and begot *Abram, (66) Nahor, and *Haran.
27 Now these are the generations of *Terah. *Terah begot *Abram, *Nahor, and *Haran; and Haran begot (67) Lot. 28 And *Haran died in the presence of his father *Terah in the land of his nativity, in Ur of the Chaldees. 29 And *Abram and Nahor took them wives: the name of Abram's wife was Sarai; and the name of Nahor's wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah, and the father of Iscah.
(68) Ishmael
(69) Esav
