Cush also begot Nimrod, which began to be mighty in the earth:

He was a mighty hunter in the sight of the LORD, whereof came the proverb "he is as Nimrod, that mighty hunter in the sight of the LORD."

And Cush begat Nimrod: which Nimrod began to wax mighty upon the earth.

these shall subdue the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod with their naked weapons. Thus shall he deliver us from the Assyrian, when he cometh within our land, and setteth his foot within our borders.
