**Us** (**Uz**; bahasa Ibrani: עוּץ‎ *'Ūṣ*) adalah salah satu putra dari Aram, putra dari Sem, menurut Tabel dari bangsa-bangsa dari Kejadian pasal 10 dalam Alkitab Ibrani. Jadi, dia adalah cicit dari Nuh.

Identifikasi

Namanya mungkin dipakai untuk suatu daerah di Timur Tengah, yang kemudian dihuni oleh seorang tokoh Perjanjian Lama, Ayub. Flavius Yosefus (*Ant. 1.6.4*) menyatakan tradisi bahwa ia mendirikan kota-kota Trakhonitis dan Damaskus.

Menurut cendekiawan Muslim, Ibnu Katsir, dia adalah ayah dari 'Ad, nenek moyang orang-orang ʿĀd.
