< Genesis 11 >
1 At first, all the people in [MTY] the world spoke the same language [DOU].
HOOKAHI no lehelehe, hookahi hoi olelo a ko ka honua a pau.
2 As people moved further east, they arrived at a plain in Babylonia region and began to live there.
A i ko lakou hele ana mai ka hikina mai, loaa ia lakou kahi papu ma ka aina o Sinara; a noho iho la lakou ilaila.
3 Then they said to each other, “(Hey/Come on), let’s form bricks and bake them to make them hard, for building!” So they used bricks instead of stones, and used tar instead of (mortar/a mixture of cement, sand and lime) to hold them together.
Olelo ae la kekahi kanaka i kona hoa, Ina kakou, e hana kakou i na pohaku ula, e kahu a moa loa. O ko lakou pohaku, he pohaku ula, a he bitumena ko lakou puna.
4 They said, “Hey, let’s build a city for ourselves! We also ought to build a very high tower that reaches up to the sky! In that way we will become famous! If we do not do this, we will be scattered all over the earth!”
Olelo ae la lakou, Ina kakou, e hana kakou i kulanakauhale no kakou, a me ka halepakui e kiekie ae kona welau i ka lani; a e hookaulana i ko kakou inoa, o hoopuehuia'ku kakou maluna o ka honua a pau.
5 So they began to build the city and the tower. Then Yahweh looked down and saw the city and the tower that those [puny] men were building.
Iho mai la o Iehova ilalo e nana i ke kulanakauhale a me ka halepakui a na keiki a kanaka i hana'i.
6 Yahweh said, “These people are one group that all speak the same language. If they have begun to do this now, then (there is nothing that they will decide to do that will be impossible for them/they will be able to do whatever they decide to do) [LIT]!
I iho la o Iehova, Aia hoi, hookahi no ka poe kanaka, hookahi hoi ko lakou lehelehe; eia ka lakou e hoomaka nei e hana: a mahope aku, aohe mea keakea ia lakou ke hana i na mea a pau a lakou e manao ai.
7 So, okay/now, we will go down there and cause there to be many different languages, so that they will not be able to understand each other.”
Ina kakou, e iho iho kakou, a malaila kakou hookahuli ai i ka lakou olelo, i hoomaopopo ole ai lakou i ka olelo a kekahi.
8 So Yahweh did that. As a result, the people stopped building the city, and Yahweh caused them to disperse all over the earth.
Pela o Iehova i hoopuehu aku ai ia lakou maluna o ka honua a pau: a oki iho la ka lakou hana ana i ua kulanakauhale la.
9 The city was called Babel which means ‘confusion’, because there Yahweh caused the people to become confused because the people [MTY] spoke [different languages that the others could not understand], not just one language. From there Yahweh caused them to disperse all over the earth.
No ia mea, ua kapaia ka inoa o ia wahi, o Babela, no ka mea, ilaila o Iehova i hookahuli ai i ka olelo a ko ka honua a pau: a mai ia wahi aku i hoopuehu aku ai o Iehova ia lakou maluna o ka honua a pau.
10 (This is a bigger list/I will now tell you more) of the descendants of Shem: Two years after the flood, when Shem was 100 years old, he became the father of Arpachshad.
Eia ka mooolelo na Sema: hookani haneri makahiki o Sema, a hanau mai o Arepakada nana, elua makahiki mahope mai o ke kaiakahinalii.
11 After Arpachshad was born, Shem lived 500 more years and had more sons and daughters.
Mahope mai o ka hanau ana o Arepakada, alima haneri no makahiki o ko Sema ola ana, a nana mai na keikikane a me na kaikamahine.
12 When Arphachshad was 35 years old, he became the father of Shelah.
He kanakolu na makahiki a me kumamalima o ko Arepakada ola ana, a hanau mai o Sala nana:
13 After Shelah was born, Arpachshad lived 403 more years and became the father of more sons and daughters.
Mahope mai o ka hanau ana o Sala, aha haneri na makahiki a me kumamakolu o ko Arepakada ola ana, a nana mai na keikikane a me na kaikamahine.
14 When Shelah was 30 years old, he became the father of Eber.
He kanakolu na makahiki o ko Sala ola ana, a hanau mai o Ebera nana:
15 After Eber was born, Shelah lived 403 more years and became the father of other sons and daughters.
Mahope mai o ka hanau ana o Ebera, aha haneri na makahiki me kumamakolu o ko Sala ola ana, a nana mai na keikikane a me na kaikamahine.
16 When Eber was 34 years old, he became the father of Peleg.
He kanakolu na makahiki a me kumamaha o ko Ebera ola ana, a hanau mai o Pelega nana:
17 After Peleg was born, Eber lived 430 more years and became the father of other sons and daughters.
Mahope mai o ka hanau ana o Pelega, aha haneri na makahiki a me kanakolu o ko Ebera ola ana, a nana mai na keikikane a me na kaikamahine.
18 When Peleg was 30 years old, he became the father of Reu.
He kanakolu na makahiki o ko Pelega ola ana, a hanau mai o Reu nana:
19 After Reu was born, Peleg lived 209 more years and became the father of other sons and daughters.
Mahope mai o ko Reu hanau ana, alua haneri na makahiki a me kumamaiwa o ko Pelega ola ana, a nana mai na keikikane a me na kaikamahine.
20 When Reu was 32 years old, he became the father of Serug.
He kanakolu na makahiki a me kumamalua o ko Reu ola ana, a hanau mai o Seruga nana:
21 After Serug was born, Reu lived 207 more years and became the father of other sons and daughters.
Elua haneri na makahiki a me kumamahiku o ko Reu ola ana mahope mai o ka hanau ana o Seruga, a nana mai na keikikane a me na kaikamahine.
22 When Serug was 30 years old, he became the father of Nahor.
He kanakolu na makahiki o ko Seruga ola ana, a hanau mai o Nahora nana:
23 After Nahor was born, Serug lived 200 more years and became the father of other sons and daughters.
Mahope mai o ka hanau ana o Nahora, elua haneri na makahiki o ko Seruga ola ana, a nana mai na keikikane a me na kaikamahine.
24 When Nahor was 29 years old, he became the father of Terah.
He iwakalua na makahiki a me kumamaiwa o ko Nahora ola ana, a hanau mai o Tera nana:
25 After Terah was born, Nahor lived 119 more years and became the father of other sons and daughters.
Mahope mai o ka hanau ana o Tera, he haneri na makahiki a me ka umikumamaiwa o ko Nahora ola ana, a nana mai na keikikane a me na kaikamahine.
26 When Terah was 70 years old, his son Abram was born. Later, two other sons, Nahor and Haran were born.
He kanahiku na makahiki o ko Tera ola ana, a hanau mai o Aberama, o Nahora, a o Harana.
27 (This is/I will now give) a list of the descendants of Terah: Terah’s sons were Abram, Nahor, and Haran. Haran’s son was named Lot.
Eia ka mooolelo no Tera; na Tera o Aberama, o Nahora, a o Harana; na Harana o Lota.
28 Haran died before his father died. He died in Ur [city] in Chaldea land, where he was born.
Make iho la o Harana mamua o kona makuakane o Tera, ma kona aina i hanau ai, ma Ura no ko Kaledea.
29 Abram and Nahor both married. Abram’s wife was named Sarai, and Nahor’s wife was named Milcah. Milcah and her younger sister Iscah were the daughters of Haran.
Lawe ae la o Aberama laua o Nahora i mau wahine na laua: o Sarai ka inoa o ka wahine a Aberama, a o Mileka ka inoa o ka wahine a Nahora; oia ke kaikamahine a Harana, a ka makuakane o Mileka, a o ka makuakane hoi o Iseka.
30 Sarai was unable to bear any children.
A he pa o Sarai; aohe ana keiki.
31 Terah decided to leave Ur and go to live in Canaan land. So he took his son Abram and his grandson Lot, the son of Haran, and Abram’s wife Sarai with him. But instead of going to Canaan, they stopped at Haran [town] and lived there.
Lawe ae la o Tera i kana keiki ia Aberama, a me kana moopuna ia Lota, ke keiki a Harana, a me Sarai kana hunonawahine, o ka wahine a kana keiki a Aberama; a haele pu mai la lakou mai Ura mai no ko Kaledea, i ka hele ana ma ka aina o Kanaana: hiki mai la lakou i Harana, a noho iho la ilaila.
32 When Terah was 205 years old, he died there in Haran.
O na la o Tera, elua ia haneri makahiki a me kumamalima: a make iho la o Tera ma Harana.
