Genesis 11
1 At first, all the people in [MTY] the world spoke the same language [DOU].
ପୂର୍ବେ ସମୁଦାୟ ପୃଥିବୀରେ ଏକ ଭାଷା ଓ ଏକରୂପ ଉଚ୍ଚାରଣ ଥିଲା।
2 As people moved further east, they arrived at a plain in Babylonia region and began to live there.
ଆଉ ଘଟଣାକ୍ରମେ ଲୋକମାନେ ପୂର୍ବ ଦିଗରେ ଭ୍ରମଣ କରୁ କରୁ ଶିନୀୟର ଦେଶରେ ଏକ ପ୍ରାନ୍ତର ପାଇ ସେଠାରେ ବସତି କଲେ।
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.
ଏଥିଉତ୍ତାରେ ସେମାନେ ପରସ୍ପର କହିଲେ, “ଆସ, ଆମ୍ଭେମାନେ ଇଟା ବନାଇ ଉତ୍ତମ ରୂପେ ପୋଡ଼ି ଦେଉ।” ତହିଁରେ ଇଟା ସେମାନଙ୍କର ପ୍ରସ୍ତର ସ୍ୱରୂପ ଓ ମାଟିଆ ତେଲ ସେମାନଙ୍କର ଚୂନ ସ୍ୱରୂପ ହେଲା।
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!”
ପୁଣି, ସେମାନେ କହିଲେ, “ଆସ, ଆମ୍ଭେମାନେ ଆପଣାମାନଙ୍କ ପାଇଁ ଗୋଟିଏ ନଗର ଓ ଗଗନସ୍ପର୍ଶୀ ଏକ ଉଚ୍ଚ ଗଡ଼ ନିର୍ମାଣ କରୁ; ତହିଁରେ ଆମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ନାମ ବିଖ୍ୟାତ ହେବ, ପୁଣି, ଆମ୍ଭେମାନେ ସମୁଦାୟ ପୃଥିବୀରେ ଛିନ୍ନଭିନ୍ନ ହେବା ନାହିଁ।”
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.
ଏଥିଉତ୍ତାରେ ମନୁଷ୍ୟ-ସନ୍ତାନମାନେ ଯେଉଁ ନଗର ଓ ଗଡ଼ ନିର୍ମାଣ କରୁଥିଲେ, ତାହା ଦେଖିବାକୁ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଓହ୍ଲାଇ ଆସିଲେ।
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]!
ପୁଣି, ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ କହିଲେ, “ଦେଖ, ଏହି ଲୋକ ସମସ୍ତେ ଏକ ଓ ଏମାନଙ୍କର ଭାଷା ହିଁ ଏକ, ଆଉ ଏବେ ଏମାନେ ଏହି କାର୍ଯ୍ୟରେ ପ୍ରବୃତ୍ତ ହେଉଅଛନ୍ତି; ଏଥିଉତ୍ତାରେ ଯାହା ଯାହା କରିବାକୁ ମନସ୍ଥ କରନ୍ତି, ତହିଁରୁ ନିବାରିତ ହେବେ ନାହିଁ।
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.”
ଏଥିପାଇଁ ସେମାନେ ଯେପରି ପରସ୍ପର ଭାଷା ବୁଝି ନ ପାରନ୍ତି, ଏଥିପାଇଁ ଆସ, ଆମ୍ଭେମାନେ ଓହ୍ଲାଇ ଯାଇ ସେହି ସ୍ଥାନରେ ସେମାନଙ୍କ ଭାଷାର ଭେଦ ଜନ୍ମାଉ।”
8 So Yahweh did that. As a result, the people stopped building the city, and Yahweh caused them to disperse all over the earth.
ଏହିରୂପେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ସେହି ସ୍ଥାନରୁ ସେମାନଙ୍କୁ ପୃଥିବୀର ସବୁଆଡ଼େ ଛିନ୍ନଭିନ୍ନ କଲେ; ଏଣୁ ସେମାନେ ନଗର ନିର୍ମାଣ କରିବାରୁ ନିବୃତ୍ତ ହେଲେ।
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.
ସେଥିପାଇଁ ସେହି ନଗରର ନାମ ବାବିଲ (ଭେଦ) ହେଲା; ଯେହେତୁ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ସେହି ସ୍ଥାନରେ ସମସ୍ତ ପୃଥିବୀର ଭାଷାଭେଦ ଜନ୍ମାଇଲେ, ପୁଣି, ସେହି ସ୍ଥାନରୁ ସେମାନଙ୍କୁ ସମୁଦାୟ ପୃଥିବୀରେ ଛିନ୍ନଭିନ୍ନ କଲେ।
