Genesis 11
1 The whole earth was of one language and of one speech.
全地は一の言語一の音のみなりき
2 It happened, as they traveled from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they settled there.
茲に人衆東に移りてシナルの地に平野を得て其處に居住り
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.
彼等互に言けるは去來甎石を作り之を善く爇んと遂に石の代に甎石を獲灰沙の代に石漆を獲たり
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."
又曰けるは去來邑と塔とを建て其塔の頂を天にいたらしめん斯して我等名を揚て全地の表面に散ることを免れんと
5 And God came down to see the city and the tower, that humankind was building.
ヱホバ降臨りて彼人衆の建る邑と塔とを觀たまへり
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.
ヱホバ言たまひけるは視よ民は一にして皆一の言語を用ふ今既に此を爲し始めたり然ば凡て其爲んと圖維る事は禁止め得られざるべし
7 Come, let us go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another's speech."
去來我等降り彼處にて彼等の言語を淆し互に言語を通ずることを得ざらしめんと
8 Then God scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth; so they ceased building the city.
ヱホバ遂に彼等を彼處より全地の表面に散したまひければ彼等邑を建ることを罷たり
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.
是故に其名はバベル(淆亂)と呼ばる是はヱホバ彼處に全地の言語を淆したまひしに由てなり彼處よりヱホバ彼等を全地の表に散したまへり
