Cush was the father of Nimrod, who became a mighty warrior on the earth. He was a mighty hunter before the LORD; that is why it is said, "Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the LORD."
The first centres of his kingdom were
Babylon,
Uruk,
Akkad
and Kalneh, in Shinar.
From that land he went to Assyria, where he built
Nineveh,
Rehoboth Ir,
Calah
and Resen, which is between Nineveh and Calah - which is the great city.
