< Genesis 11 >
1 Then the whole earth was of one language and one speache.
Pea naʻe ngutu taha pe ʻa māmani kotoa, mo lea taha pe.
2 And as they went from the East, they found a plaine in the land of Shinar, and there they abode.
Pea naʻe hoko, ʻi heʻenau fononga mei hahake, naʻa nau ʻilo ai ʻae toafa ʻi he fonua ko Saina; pea nau nofo ai.
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.
Pea naʻa nau fepehēʻaki, “Vakai, ke tau ngaohi ʻae makaʻumea, pea taʻo ia ke vela ʻaupito. Pea naʻa nau maka ʻaki ʻae makaʻumea, mo nau lahe ʻaki ʻae kelepulu.”
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.
Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Vakai, ke tau langa moʻotautolu ha kolo mo e fale māʻolunga, kae aʻu hono tuʻa fale ki langi; pea tau fakaongoongoa ʻa hotau hingoa, telia naʻa fakamovetevete ʻakitautolu ki he funga ʻo māmani kotoa.”
5 But the Lord came downe, to see the citie and towre, which the sonnes of men builded.
Pea naʻe hāʻele hifo ʻa Sihova, ke ʻafio ki he kolo mo e fale māʻolunga, ʻaia naʻe langa ʻe he fānau ʻae tangata.
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.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova, “Vakai, ʻoku taha pe ʻae kakai, pea ʻoku nau lea taha pe; pea kuo nau kamata fai eni: pea ko eni, ʻe ʻikai taʻofia ʻakinautolu, ʻi ha meʻa kuo nau fakakaukau ke fai.
7 Come on, let vs goe downe, and there confound their language, that euery one perceiue not anothers speache.
Vakai, ke tau ʻalu hifo, pea veuveuki ʻenau lea, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa nau feʻiloaki lea.”
8 So ye Lord scattered them from thence vpon all the earth, and they left off to build the citie.
Ko ia naʻe fakamovetevete ai ʻakinautolu ʻe Sihova ki he funga ʻo māmani kotoa pē: pea naʻa nau tuku ʻae langa kolo.
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.
Ko ia ʻoku ui ai hono hingoa ko Pepeli; koeʻuhi naʻe veuveuki ʻi ai ʻe Sihova ʻae lea ʻa māmani kotoa pē: pea naʻe fakamovetevete ʻakinautolu mei ai, ʻe Sihova, ki he funga ʻo māmani kotoa pē.
10 These are the generations of Shem: Shem was an hundreth yeere olde, and begate Arpachshad two yeere after the flood.
Ko eni ʻae ngaahi toʻutangata ʻo Semi naʻe teau taʻu ʻae motuʻa ʻo Semi, pea fānau kiate ia ʻa ʻAfakisati ʻi hono ua taʻu hili ʻae lōmaki:
11 And Shem liued, after he begate Arpachshad, fiue hundreth yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters.
Pea naʻe moʻui ʻa Semi hili ʻae fanauʻi ʻa ʻAfakisati ʻi he taʻu ʻe nimangeau, pea naʻe fānau kiate ia ʻae ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine.
12 Also Arpachshad liued fiue and thirtie yeeres, and begate Shelah.
Pea naʻe moʻui ʻa ʻAfakisati ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolungofulu ma nima, pea fānau kiate ia ʻa Sela:
13 And Arpachshad liued, after he begate Shelah, foure hundreth and three yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters.
Pea naʻe moʻui ʻa ʻAfakisati, hili ʻae fanauʻi ʻa Sela, ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngeau ma tolu, pea fānau kiate ia ʻae ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine.
14 And Shelah liued thirtie yeeres, and begat Eber.
Pea naʻe moʻui ʻa Sela ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolungofulu, pea naʻe fānau kiate ia ʻa ʻIpela.
15 So Shelah liued, after he begat Eber, foure hundreth and three yeeres, and begat sonnes and daughters.
Pea naʻe moʻui ʻa Sela hili ʻae fanauʻi ʻa ʻIpela ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngeau ma tolu, pea naʻe fānau kiate ia ʻae ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine.
16 Likewise Eber liued foure and thirtie yeres, and begate Peleg.
Pea naʻe moʻui ʻa ʻIpela ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolungofulu ma fā, pea naʻe fānau kiate ia ʻa Peleki:
17 So Eber liued, after he begate Peleg, foure hundreth and thirtie yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters
Pea naʻe moʻui ʻa ʻIpela hili ʻae fanauʻi ʻo Peleki, ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngeau ma tolungofulu, pea naʻe fānau kiate ia ʻae ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine.
18 And Peleg liued thirtie yeeres, and begate Reu.
Pea naʻe moʻui ʻa Peleki ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolungofulu, pea naʻe fānau kiate ia ʻa Liu:
19 And Peleg liued, after he begate Reu, two hundreth and nine yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters.
Pea naʻe moʻui ʻa Peleki hili ʻae fanauʻi ʻa Liu, ʻi he taʻu ʻe uangeau ma hiva, pea naʻe fānau kiate ia ʻae ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine.
20 Also Reu liued two and thirtie yeeres, and begate Serug.
Pea naʻe moʻui ʻa Liu ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolungofulu ma ua, pea naʻe fānau kiate ia ʻa Seluke:
21 So Reu liued, after he begate Serug, two hundreth and seuen yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters.
Pea naʻe moʻui ʻa Liu hili ʻae fanauʻi ʻa Seluke, ʻi he taʻu ʻe uangeau ma fitu, pea naʻe fānau kiate ia ʻae ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine.
22 Moreouer Serug liued thirtie yeeres, and begate Nahor.
Pea naʻe moʻui ʻa Seluke ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolungofulu, pea naʻe fānau kiate ia ʻa Nehoa;
23 And Serug liued, after he begate Nahor, two hundreth yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters.
Pea naʻe moʻui ʻa Seluke hili ʻae fanauʻi ʻa Nehoa ʻi he taʻu ʻe uangeau, pea naʻe fānau kiate ia ʻae ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine.
24 And Nahor liued nine and twentie yeeres, and begate Terah.
Pea naʻe moʻui ʻa Nehoa ʻi he taʻu ʻe uofulu ma hiva, pea naʻe fānau kiate ia ʻa Tela:
25 So Nahor liued, after he begate Terah, an hundreth and nineteene yeeres, and begat sonnes and daughters.
Pea naʻe moʻui ʻa Nehoa hili ʻae fanauʻi ʻa Tela ʻi he taʻu ʻe teau ma hongofulu ma hiva, pea naʻe fānau kiate ia ʻae ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine.
26 So Terah liued seuentie yeeres, and begate Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
Pea naʻe moʻui ʻa Tela ʻi he taʻu ʻe fitungofulu, pea naʻe fānau kiate ia ʻa ʻEpalame, mo Nehoa, mo Halani.
27 Nowe these are the generations of Terah: Terah begate Abram, Nahor, and Haran: and Haran begate Lot.
Pea ko eni ʻae hako ʻo Tela: naʻe fānau kia Tela ʻa ʻEpalame, mo Nehoa, mo Halani; pea naʻe fānau kia Halani ʻa Lote.
28 Then Haran died before Terah his father in the land of his natiuitie, in Vr of the Caldees.
Pea naʻe tomuʻa pekia ʻa Halani ʻi heʻene tamai ko Tela, ʻi he fonua naʻe fanauʻi ai ia, ko Ua ʻi Kalitia.
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.
Pea naʻe maʻu uaifi ʻa ʻEpalame mo Nehoa: ko e hingoa ʻoe uaifi ʻo ʻEpalame ko Selai, pea ko e hingoa ʻoe uaifi ʻo Nehoa ko Milika, ko e ʻofefine ʻo Halani, ko e tamai ʻa Milika, mo e tamai ʻa Isika.
30 But Sarai was barren, and had no childe.
Ka naʻe paʻa ʻa Selai; naʻe ʻikai haʻa ne tama.
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.
Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe Tela ʻa hono foha ko ʻEpalame, mo Lote ko e foha ʻo hono foha ko Halani, mo Selai ko hono ʻofefine ʻi he fono, ko e uaifi ʻo hono foha ko ʻEpalame; pea naʻa nau ʻalu atu mei Ua ʻi Kalitia, ke fononga ki he fonua ko Kēnani; pea naʻa nau hoko ki Halani, ʻo nofo ai.
32 So the dayes of Terah were two hundreth and fiue yeeres, and Terah died in Haran.
Pea ko e ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Tela ko e taʻu ʻe uangeau ma nima; pea naʻe pekia ʻa Tela ʻi Halani.
