Chakruok 11
1 E kindeno ogendini duto manie piny ne wacho dhok achiel kod weche machal.
The whole earth was of one language and of one speech.
2 Kane gidhi yo wuok chiengʼ, negiyudo pap moro e piny Shinar mine gidak kanyo.
It happened, as they traveled from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they settled there.
3 Negiwacho e kindgi giwegi niya, “Biuru walosuru matafare kendo wawangʼ-gi mochiek maber.” Negitiyo gi matafare kar kite kendo lowo kar simiti.
And they said to one another, "Come, let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly." They had brick for stone, and they used tar for mortar.
4 Eka negiwacho niya, “Biuru wager dala maduongʼ man-gi ohinga mabor machopo nyaka e polo mondo omi walos nyingwa kendo kik wabed moke e kor piny.”
They said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top reaches to the sky, and let us make ourselves a name, lest we be scattered abroad on the surface of the whole earth."
5 To Jehova Nyasaye nolor piny mondo one dala maduongʼ kod ohinga mabor mane dhano gero.
And God came down to see the city and the tower, that humankind was building.
6 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Ka gin oganda achiel, mawacho dhok achiel ema gisechako timo ma, kara gimoro amora ma gichano timo ok nyal tamogi.
And God said, "Look, they are one people, and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do. So now nothing which they plan to do will be too difficult for them.
7 Biuru, kendo wadhi mondo wapog dhogi mondo kik giwinjre dhok ngʼato gi ngʼato.”
Come, let us go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another's speech."
8 Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye nokeyogi koa kanyo nyaka e piny duto kendo ne giweyo gero dalano.
Then God scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth; so they ceased building the city.
9 Mano emomiyo ne iluongo dalano ni Babel, nikech kanyo ema Jehova Nyasaye nopogoe dho ogendini kendo okeyogi e pinje duto.
Therefore its name was called Babel, because there God confused the language of all the earth. From there he scattered them over the face of the whole earth.
