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

And Arphaxad begot Shelah, and Shelah begot Eber.

And Shem lived five hundred years after he begot Arphaxad, and begot sons and daughters.

And Arphaxad lived thirty-five years, and begot Shelah.

And Arphaxad lived four hundred and three years after he begot Shelah, and begot sons and daughters.
