< Genesis 11 >

1 The whole earth was of one language and of one speech.
Celotna zemlja pa je bila enojezična in enega govora.
2 It happened, as they traveled from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they settled there.
Pripetilo se je, ko so potovali od vzhoda, da so našli ravnino v šinárski deželi in tam so prebivali.
3 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.
Rekli so drug drugemu: »Pojdimo, delajmo opeko in jih temeljito žgimo.« In opeko so imeli za kamen, blato pa so imeli za malto.
4 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."
Rekli so: »Pojdimo, zgradimo si mesto in stolp, čigar vrh bo lahko segal do neba in naredimo si ime, da ne bomo razkropljeni po obličju celotne zemlje.«
5 And God came down to see the city and the tower, that humankind was building.
Gospod pa je prišel dol, da vidi mesto in stolp, ki so ga gradili človeški otroci.
6 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.
Gospod je rekel: »Glej, ljudstvo je eno in vsi imajo en jezik in to so začeli delati in zdaj ne bo nič zadržano pred njimi, kar so si domislili storiti.
7 Come, let us go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another's speech."
Pojdimo, gremo dol in jim tam zmešajmo njihov jezik, da ne bodo mogli razumeti govora drug drugega.«
8 Then God scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth; so they ceased building the city.
Tako jih je Gospod od tam razkropil naokoli po obličju celotne zemlje in prenehali so graditi mesto.
9 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.
Zato je ime tega mesta imenovano Babel, ker je tam Gospod zmešal jezik vse zemlje, in od tam jih je Gospod razkropil naokoli po obličju vse zemlje.

Abram in Nahór sta si vzela ženi. Ime Abramove žene je bilo Sarája; in ime Nahórjeve žene Milka, hči Harána, Milkinega očeta in Jiskinega očeta.
30 And Sarai was barren. She had no child.
Toda Sarája je bila jalova; ni imela nobenega otroka.
31 And Terah took Abram his son, Lot the son of Haran, his grandson, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram's wife, and with them he set out from Ur Kasdim to go into the land of Canaan. But when they came to Haran, they settled there.
Terah je vzel Abrama, svojega sina in vnuka Lota, Haránovega sina in svojo snaho Sarájo, ženo svojega sina Abrama in odšli so iz Ura Kaldejcev, da gredo v kánaansko deželo in prišli so v Harán ter tam prebivali.
32 And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years. And Terah died in Haran.
Terahovih dni je bilo dvesto pet let, in Terah je umrl v Haránu.
