< Genesis 11 >

1 And the whole earth was of one language and of one speech.
Byla pak všecka země jazyku jednoho a řeči jedné.
2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there.
I stalo se, když se brali od východu, nalezli pole v zemi Sinear, a bydlili tam.
3 And they said one to another: 'Come, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly.' And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for mortar.
A řekli jeden druhému: Nuže, nadělejme cihel, a vypalme je ohněm. I měli cihly místo kamení, a zemi lepkou místo vápna.
4 And they said: 'Come, let us build us a city, and a tower, with its top in heaven, and let us make us a name; lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.'
Nebo řekli: Nuže, vystavějme sobě město a věži, jejíž by vrch dosahal k nebi; a tak učiňme sobě jméno, abychom nebyli rozptýleni po vší zemi.
5 And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.
Sstoupil pak Hospodin, aby viděl to město a věži, kterouž stavěli synové lidští.
6 And the LORD said: 'Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language; and this is what they begin to do; and now nothing will be withholden from them, which they purpose to do.
A řekl Hospodin: Aj, lid jeden a jazyk jeden všechněch těchto, a toť jest začátek díla jejich; nyní pak nedadí sobě v tom překaziti, což umínili dělati.
7 Come, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.'
Protož sstupme a změťme tam jazyk jejich, aby jeden druhého jazyku nerozuměl.
8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth; and they left off to build the city.
A tak rozptýlil je Hospodin odtud po vší zemi; i přestali stavěti města toho.
9 Therefore was the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth; and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
Protož nazváno jest jméno jeho Bábel; nebo tu zmátl Hospodin jazyk vší země; a odtud rozptýlil je Hospodin po vší zemi.
10 These are the generations of Shem. Shem was a hundred years old, and begot Arpachshad two years after the flood.
Titoť jsou rodové Semovi: Sem, když byl ve stu letech, zplodil Arfaxada ve dvou letech po potopě.
11 And Shem lived after he begot Arpachshad five hundred years, and begot sons and daughters.
A byl živ Sem po zplození Arfaxada pět set let; a plodil syny a dcery.
12 And Arpachshad lived five and thirty years, and begot Shelah.
Arfaxad pak živ byl pět a třidceti let, a zplodil Sále.
13 And Arpachshad lived after he begot Shelah four hundred and three years, and begot sons and daughters.
A po zplození Sále živ byl Arfaxad čtyři sta a tři léta; a plodil syny a dcery.
14 And Shelah lived thirty years, and begot Eber.
Sále také živ byl třidceti let, a zplodil Hebera.
15 And Shelah lived after he begot Eber four hundred and three years, and begot sons and daughters.
A živ byl Sále po zplození Hebera čtyři sta a tři léta; a plodil syny a dcery.
16 And Eber lived four and thirty years, and begot Peleg.
Živ pak byl Heber čtyři a třidceti let, a zplodil Pelega.
17 And Eber lived after he begot Peleg four hundred and thirty years, and begot sons and daughters.
A živ byl Heber po zplození Pelega čtyři sta a třidceti let; a plodil syny a dcery.
18 And Peleg lived thirty years, and begot Reu.
Peleg pak živ byl třidceti let, a zplodil Réhu.
19 And Peleg lived after he begot Reu two hundred and nine years, and begot sons and daughters.
A živ byl Peleg po zplození Réhu dvě stě a devět let; a plodil syny a dcery.
20 And Reu lived two and thirty years, and begot Serug.
Réhu také živ byl třidceti a dvě létě, a zplodil Sáruga.
21 And Reu lived after he begot Serug two hundred and seven years, and begot sons and daughters.
A po zplození Sáruga živ byl Réhu dvě stě a sedm let; a plodil syny a dcery.
22 And Serug lived thirty years, and begot Nahor.
Živ pak byl Sárug třidceti let, a zplodil Náchora.
23 And Serug lived after he begot Nahor two hundred years, and begot sons and daughters.
A byl živ Sárug po zplození Náchora dvě stě let; a plodil syny a dcery.
24 And Nahor lived nine and twenty years, and begot Terah.
Náchor pak živ byl dvadceti a devět let, a zplodil Táre.
25 And Nahor lived after he begot Terah a hundred and nineteen years, and begot sons and daughters.
A živ byl Náchor po zplození Táre sto a devatenácte let; a plodil syny a dcery.
26 And Terah lived seventy years, and begot Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
Živ pak byl Táre sedmdesáte let, a zplodil Abrama, Náchora a Hárana.
27 Now these are the generations of Terah. Terah begot Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran begot Lot.
Tito jsou pak rodové Táre: Táre zplodil Abrama, Náchora a Hárana; Háran pak zplodil Lota.
28 And Haran died in the presence of his father Terah in the land of his nativity, in Ur of the Chaldees.
Umřel pak Háran prvé než Táre otec jeho v zemi narození svého, totiž v Ur Kaldejských.
29 And Abram and Nahor took them wives: the name of Abram's wife was Sarai; and the name of Nahor's wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah, and the father of Iscah.
I zpojímali sobě ženy Abram a Náchor; jméno ženy Abramovy Sarai, a jméno ženy Náchorovy Melcha, dcera Háranova, kterýž byl otec Melchy a Jeschy.
30 And Sarai was barren; she had no child.
Byla pak Sarai neplodná, a neměla dětí.
31 And Terah took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran, his son's son, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram's wife; and they went forth with them from Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan; and they came unto Haran, and dwelt there.
I vzal Táre Abrama syna svého, a Lota syna Háranova, vnuka svého, a Sarai nevěstu svou, ženu Abrama syna svého, a vyšli spolu z Ur Kaldejských, aby se brali do země Kananejské, a přišli až do Cháran, a bydlili tam.
32 And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years; and Terah died in Haran.
A byli dnové Táre dvě stě a pět let; i umřel Táre v Cháran.
