וּלְעֵ֥בֶר יֻלַּ֖ד שְׁנֵ֣י בָנִ֑ים שֵׁ֣ם הָאֶחָ֞ד פֶּ֗לֶג כִּ֤י בְיָמָיו֙ נִפְלְגָ֣ה הָאָ֔רֶץ וְשֵׁ֥ם אָחִ֖יו יָקְטָֽן׃
希伯生了兩個兒子：一個名叫法勒，因為在他的日子，地上的人就分散了；他的兄弟名叫約坍。
Targum of I Chronicles
And Ever had two sons. The name of one was Peleg, because in his days the inhabitants of the world were split [itpligu] to their languages, and the name of the other was Yoqtan since in his day the years of humanity began to diminish [itqta'a] from on account of their sins.
