Genesis 11
1 The whole earth was of one language and of one speech.
E era toda a terra de uma mesma língua, e de uma mesma fala.
2 It happened, as they traveled from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they settled there.
E aconteceu que, partindo eles do Oriente, acharam um vale na terra de Shinar; e habitaram ali.
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.
E disseram uns aos outros: Eia, façamos tijolos, e queimê-mo-los bem. E foi-lhes o tijolo por pedra, e o betume por cal.
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."
E disseram: Eia, edifiquemos nós uma cidade e uma torre cujo cume toque nos céus, e façamo-nos um nome, para que não sejamos espalhados sobre a face de toda a terra.
5 And God came down to see the city and the tower, that humankind was building.
Então desceu o Senhor para ver a cidade e a torre que os filhos dos homens edificavam;
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.
E disse. Eis que o povo é um, e todos tem uma mesma língua; e isto é o que começam a fazer: e agora, não haverá restrição para tudo o que eles intentarem fazer?
7 Come, let us go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another's speech."
Eia, desçamos, e confundamos ali a sua língua, para que não entenda um a língua do outro.
8 Then God scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth; so they ceased building the city.
Assim o Senhor os espalhou dali sobre a face de toda a terra: e cessaram de edificar a cidade.
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.
Por isso se chamou o seu nome Babel, porquanto ali confundiu o Senhor a língua de toda a terra, e dali os espalhou o Senhor sobre a face de toda a terra.

29 And Abram and Nahor took wives. The name of Abram's wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor's wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran who was also the father of Iscah.
E tomaram Abrão e Nahor mulheres para si: o nome da mulher de Abrão era Sarai, e o nome da mulher de Nahor era Milcah, filha de Haran, pai de Milcah, e pai de Iscah.
30 And Sarai was barren. She had no child.
E Sarai foi estéril, e não tinha filhos.
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.
E tomou Terah a Abrão seu filho, e a Lot filho de Haran, filho de seu filho, e a Sarai sua nora, mulher de seu filho Abrão, e saiu com eles de Ur dos caldeus, para ir à terra de Canaan; e vieram até Haran, e habitaram ali
32 And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years. And Terah died in Haran.
E foram os dias de Terah duzentos e cinco anos: e morreu Terah em Haran.
