Genesis 11
1 So it came to pass that, all the earth, was of one manner of speech, —and of one stock of words.
全地は一の言語一の音のみなりき
2 And it came to pass as they brake away onwards, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and dwelt 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 Then said they, each man to his friend, Come on! let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly, —So the bricks, served them for stone, and bitumen, served them 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 And they said Come on! let us build for ourselves a city, and a tower with its head in the heavens, so let us make for ourselves a name, —lest we be scattered abroad over the face of all the 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 Yahweh came down, to behold the city, and the tower, —which the sons of men had built.
ヱホバ降臨りて彼人衆の建る邑と塔とを觀たまへり
6 Then said Yahweh: Lo! one people and one manner of speech, have they all, this, then is what they have begun to do, —now, therefore, nothing will be withholden from them which they may plan to do.
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 on! let us go down, and there confuse their speech, —that they may not understand, each man the speech of his friend.
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 So Yahweh scattered them from thence over the face of all the earth, —and so they left off 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 For this cause, was the name thereof called Babel ["Confusion"]; because there, did Yahweh confuse the speech of all the earth, —and, from thence, did Yahweh scatter them abroad, over the face of all the 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
