Genesis 11
1 Then the whole earth was of one language and one speache.
Zvino nyika yose yakanga ino rurimi rumwe chete nokutaura kwakafanana.
2 And as they went from the East, they found a plaine in the land of Shinar, and there they abode.
Vanhu vakati vachitamira kumabvazuva, vakawana bani romuShinari vakagaramo.
3 And they said one to another, Come, let vs make bricke, and burne it in the fire. So they had bricke for stone, and slime had they in steade of morter.
Vakataurirana vakati, “Uyai, ngatiitei zvidhina tigozvipisa kwazvo.” Vakashandisa zvidhina pachinzvimbo chamabwe, uye bhitumini ikava dhaka ravo.
4 Also they said, Goe to, let vs builde vs a citie and a towre, whose top may reache vnto the heauen, that we may get vs a name, lest we be scattered vpon the whole earth.
Ipapo vakati, “Uyai, ngatizvivakirei guta neshongwe inosvika kudengadenga, kuti tizviitire mukurumbira uye kuti tirege kupararira panyika yose.”
5 But the Lord came downe, to see the citie and towre, which the sonnes of men builded.
Asi Jehovha akaburuka pasi kuti azoona guta neshongwe yakanga ichivakwa navanhu.
6 And the Lord said, Beholde, the people is one, and they all haue one language, and this they begin to doe, neither can they now be stopped from whatsoeuer they haue imagined to do.
Jehovha akati, “Kana vanhu ava vava somunhu mumwe, vachitaura rurimi rumwe chete, vakatanga kuita izvi, zvino hapana chinhu chavanoronga kuti vachiite chichavaomera.
7 Come on, let vs goe downe, and there confound their language, that euery one perceiue not anothers speache.
Uyai, ngatiburukei tindovapesanisa mutauro wavo kuti varege kunzwisisana.”
8 So ye Lord scattered them from thence vpon all the earth, and they left off to build the citie.
Saka Jehovha akavaparadzira pamusoro penyika yose ipapo, uye vakarega kuvaka guta.
9 Therefore the name of it was called Babel, because the Lord did there confounde the language of all the earth: from thence then did the Lord scatter them vpon all the earth.
Ndokusaka nzvimbo iyo yakanzi Bhabheri, nokuti ipapo Jehovha akapesanisa mutauro wenyika yose. Kubva ipapo Jehovha akavaparadzira pamusoro penyika yose.
10 These are the generations of Shem: Shem was an hundreth yeere olde, and begate Arpachshad two yeere after the flood.
Iyi ndiyo rondedzero yamarudzi aShemu. Makore maviri shure kwamafashamu, Shemu paakanga ava namakore zana okuberekwa, akabereka Afakisadhi.
11 And Shem liued, after he begate Arpachshad, fiue hundreth yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters.
Uye shure kwokubereka Afakisadhi, Shemu akararama kwamakore mazana mashanu uye akava navamwe vanakomana navanasikana.
12 Also Arpachshad liued fiue and thirtie yeeres, and begate Shelah.
Afakisadhi akati ava namakore makumi matatu namashanu okuberekwa, akabereka Shera.
13 And Arpachshad liued, after he begate Shelah, foure hundreth and three yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters.
Uye shure kwokubereka kwake Shera, Afakisadhi akararama kwamakore mazana mana namatatu uye akazova navamwe vanakomana navanasikana.
14 And Shelah liued thirtie yeeres, and begat Eber.
Shera akati ava namakore makumi matatu okuberekwa, akabereka Ebheri.
15 So Shelah liued, after he begat Eber, foure hundreth and three yeeres, and begat sonnes and daughters.
Uye shure kwokubereka kwake Ebheri, Shera akararama kwamakore mazana mana namatatu uye akazova navamwe vanakomana navanasikana.
16 Likewise Eber liued foure and thirtie yeres, and begate Peleg.
Ebheri akati ava namakore makumi matatu namana okuberekwa, akabereka Peregi.
17 So Eber liued, after he begate Peleg, foure hundreth and thirtie yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters
Uye shure kwokubereka kwake Peregi, Ebheri akararama kwamakore mazana mana namakumi matatu uye akazova navamwe vanakomana navanasikana.
18 And Peleg liued thirtie yeeres, and begate Reu.
Peregi akati ava namakore makumi matatu, okuberekwa akabereka Reu.
19 And Peleg liued, after he begate Reu, two hundreth and nine yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters.
Uye shure kwokubereka kwake Reu, Peregi akararama kwamakore mazana maviri namapfumbamwe uye akazova navamwe vanakomana navanasikana.
20 Also Reu liued two and thirtie yeeres, and begate Serug.
Reu akati ava namakore makumi matatu namaviri okuberekwa, akabereka Serugi.
21 So Reu liued, after he begate Serug, two hundreth and seuen yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters.
Uye shure kwokubereka kwake Serugi, Reu akararama kwamakore mazana maviri namanomwe uye akazova navamwe vanakomana navanasikana.
22 Moreouer Serug liued thirtie yeeres, and begate Nahor.
Serugi akati ava namakore makumi matatu okuberekwa, akabereka Nahori.
23 And Serug liued, after he begate Nahor, two hundreth yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters.
Uye shure kwokubereka kwake Nahori, Serugi akararama kwamakore mazana maviri uye akazova navamwe vanakomana navanasikana.
24 And Nahor liued nine and twentie yeeres, and begate Terah.
Nahori akati ava namakore makumi maviri namapfumbamwe okuberekwa, akabereka Tera.
25 So Nahor liued, after he begate Terah, an hundreth and nineteene yeeres, and begat sonnes and daughters.
Uye shure kwokubereka kwake Tera, Nahori akazorarama kwamakore zana negumi namapfumbamwe uye akazova navamwe vanakomana navanasikana.
26 So Terah liued seuentie yeeres, and begate Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
Shure kwokunge Nahori ava namakore makumi manomwe okuberekwa, akabereka Abhurama, Nahori naHarani.
27 Nowe these are the generations of Terah: Terah begate Abram, Nahor, and Haran: and Haran begate Lot.
Iyi ndiyo rondedzero yavana vaTera. Tera akabereka Abhurama, Nahori naHarani. Uye Harani akabereka Roti.
28 Then Haran died before Terah his father in the land of his natiuitie, in Vr of the Caldees.
Baba vake Tera vachiri vapenyu Harani akafira muUri ravaKaradhea, munyika yaakaberekerwa,
29 So Abram and Nahor tooke them wiues. The name of Abrams wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahors wife Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah, and the father of Iscah.
vose vari vaviri Abhurama naNahori vakawana. Zita romukadzi waAbhurama rainzi Sarai, uye zita romukadzi waNahori rainzi Mirika; akanga ari mwanasikana waHarani, baba vaMirika naIsika.
30 But Sarai was barren, and had no childe.
Zvino Sarai akanga asingabereki; akanga asina vana.
31 Then Terah tooke Abram his sonne, and Lot the sonne of Haran, his sonnes sonne, and Sarai his daughter in lawe, his sonne Abrams wife: and they departed together from Vr of the Caldees, to goe into the land of Canaan, and they came to Haran, and dwelt there.
Tera akatora mwanakomana wake Abhurama, muzukuru wake Roti, mwanakomana waHarani, nomuroora wake Sarai, mukadzi womwanakomana wake Abhurama, uye vakaenda kuUri yavaKaradhea pamwe chete kuti vaende kuKenani. Asi vakati vasvika paHarani, vakagara ipapo.
32 So the dayes of Terah were two hundreth and fiue yeeres, and Terah died in Haran.
Tera akararama kwamakore mazana maviri namashanu, uye akafira paHarani.
