< Genesis 11 >
1 The whole earth was of one language and of one speech.
At ang buong lupa ay iisa ang wika at iisa ang salita.
2 It happened, as they traveled from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they settled there.
At nangyari, na, sa kanilang paglalakbay sa silanganan, ay nakasumpong sila ng isang kapatagan sa lupain ng Sinar; at sila'y nanahan doon.
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.
At nagsangusapang, Halikayo! tayo'y gumawa ng mga laryo, at ating lutuing mabuti. At inari nilang bato ang laryo at ang betun ay inaring argamasa.
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."
At nagsipagsabi, Halikayo! Magtayo tayo ng isang bayan natin at ng isang moog, na ang taluktok niyaon ay aabot hanggang sa langit, at magtaglay tayo ng isang ngalan; baka tayo'y mangalat sa ibabaw ng buong lupa.
5 And God came down to see the city and the tower, that humankind was building.
At bumaba ang Panginoon upang tingnan ang bayan at ang moog, na itinayo ng mga anak ng mga tao.
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.
At sinabi ng Panginoon, Narito, sila'y iisang bayan at silang lahat ay may isang wika; at ito ang kanilang pinasimulang gawin: at, ngayon nga'y walang makasasawata sa anomang kanilang balaking gawin.
7 Come, let us go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another's speech."
Halikayo! tayo'y bumaba at diyan din ay ating guluhin ang kanilang wika, na anopa't sila'y huwag magkatalastasan sa kanilang salita.
8 Then God scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth; so they ceased building the city.
Ganito pinanabog sila ng Panginoon mula riyan, sa ibabaw ng buong lupa; at kanilang iniwan ang pagtatayo ng bayan.
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.
Kaya ang pangalang itinawag ay Babel; sapagka't doon ginulo ng Panginoon ang wika ng buong lupa: at mula roon ay pinanabog sila ng Panginoon sa ibabaw ng buong lupa.

30 And Sarai was barren. She had no child.
At si Sarai ay baog; siya'y walang anak.
