Genesis 10:8-10

International Children’s Bible

⁸ Cush also had a descendant named Nimrod. Nimrod became a very powerful man on earth. ⁹ He was a great hunter before the Lord. That is why people say someone is “like Nimrod, a great hunter before the Lord.” ¹⁰ At first Nimrod’s kingdom covered Babylon, Erech, Akkad and Calneh in the land of Babylonia.
