Dialogue with Trypho 139.2 · Sophia Scriptura

Greek text · Archambault 2:298

Ἐν δὲ οἷς εἶπε προέλεγεν ὅτι καὶ οἱ ἀπὸ Σὴμ γενησόμενοι διακαθέξουσι τὰς κτήσεις καὶ οἰκήσεις τοῦ Χαναάν, καὶ πάλιν οἱ ἀπὸ τοῦ Ἰάφεθ αὐτάς, ἃς διακατέσχον παρὰ τῶν τοῦ Χαναὰν οἱ ἀπὸ Σὴμ παραλαβόντες, διακαθέξουσιν, ἀφελόμενοι τοὺς ἀπὸ Σὴμ γενομένους, ὃν τρόπον ἀφαιρεθέντων αὐτὰ τῶν υἱῶν Χαναὰν αὐτοὶ διακατέσχον.

English · Claude translation

“And in what he said he foretold that those descended from Shem would take possession of the property and dwellings of Canaan, and again that those from Japheth would take possession of the same things, which those from Shem had received from those of Canaan, taking them away from those descended from Shem, just as they themselves had taken possession when the sons of Canaan were deprived of them.
