These are the generations of Shem: Shem was an hundred years old, and begat Arphaxad two years after the flood:
Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
And Shem lived after he begat Arphaxad five hundred years, and begat sons and daughters.
