The sons of Shem; Peleg and Joktan, born to Eber; the sons of Joktan

셈의 아들과 에벨이 낳은 벨렉과 욕단과 욕단의 아들들

1 Chronicles 1:17–23: the text says, “The sons of Shem: Elam, Asshur, Arpachshad, Lud, Aram, Uz, Hul, Gether, and Meshech. Arpachshad became the father of Shelah, and Shelah became the father of Eber. To Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided; and his brother’s name was Joktan.” 1:20–23 name the sons Joktan became the father of, and close, “All these were the sons of Joktan.” The Korean Revised Version reads 그 때에 (at that time) where WEB reads “in his days” (1:19), and closes 1:23 with 욕단의 아들들은 이러하니라 (the sons of Joktan are these).
