The Kebra Nagast 83
Concerning the King of the Ishmaelites
Children of Ishmael became kings over Tereb, Kebet, Soba, Kifi, Maka, Morna, Finkana, Liba and Mase'a as Shem's seed.
1nd therefore the children of Ishmael became kings over Tereb, and over Kebet, and over Noba, and Soba, and Kuergue, and Kifi, and Maka, and Morna, and Finkana, and 'Arsibana, and Liba, and Mase'a, for they were the seed of Shem.
2 And Isaac reigned over Judah and over 'Amorewon, and over Ketewon, and 'Iyabusewon, and Ferzewon, and 'Eewewon, and Kekedewon, and Romya, and 'Ansokya (Antiochia), and Sorya (Syria), and Armenia, and Felesteem (Palestine), and Ethiopia, and Edom, and Philistia, and Iyoab, and Amalek, and Phrygia, and Babylon, and Yonanest, and 'Ebrayast.
3 For as God sware He gave all kingdoms to the seed of Shem, and an exalted throne and dominion to the seed of Shem, even as his father Noah, by the word of God, blessed his son Shem, saying, " Be lord to thy brethren and reign over them."
4 And this that he said had reference to the Redeemer, the King of us all, Jesus Christ the King of heaven and earth, Who magnifieth kings, and Who when He pleaseth abrogateth their power; for unto Him belong power and dominion over all created things for ever and ever. Amen.
