< Genesis 11 >
1 Now the whole earth used one language and had the same words.
At ang buong lupa ay iisa ang wika at iisa ang salita.
2 As they journeyed in the east, 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 They said to one another, “Come, let us make bricks and bake them thoroughly.” They had brick instead of stone and tar as 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 will reach to the sky, and let us make a name for ourselves. If we do not, we will be scattered across 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 So Yahweh came down to see the city and the tower which the descendants of Adam had built.
At bumaba ang Panginoon upang tingnan ang bayan at ang moog, na itinayo ng mga anak ng mga tao.
6 Yahweh said, “Look, they are one people with the same language, and they are beginning to do this! Soon nothing that they intend to do will be impossible 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 confuse their language there, so that they may not understand each other.”
Halikayo! tayo'y bumaba at diyan din ay ating guluhin ang kanilang wika, na anopa't sila'y huwag magkatalastasan sa kanilang salita.
8 So Yahweh scattered them from there across the surface of all the earth and they stopped 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 Yahweh confused the language of the whole earth and from there Yahweh scattered them abroad over the surface of all the 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.
10 These were the descendants of Shem. Shem was a hundred years old, and he became the father of Arphaxad two years after the flood.

At nabuhay si Peleg pagkatapos na maipanganak si Reu, ng dalawang daan at siyam na taon; at nagkaanak ng mga lalake at mga babae.

At nabuhay si Serug ng tatlong pung taon, at naging anak si Nachor:
23 Serug lived two hundred years after he became the father of Nahor. He also became the father of other sons and daughters.
At nabuhay si Serug pagkatapos maipanganak si Nachor, ng dalawang daang taon, at nagkaanak ng mga lalake at mga babae.
24 When Nahor had live twenty-nine years, he became the father of Terah.

At nabuhay si Nachor pagkatapos na maipanganak si Thare, ng isang daan at labing siyam na taon, at nagkaanak ng mga lalake at mga babae.
26 After Terah had lived seventy years, he became the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
At nabuhay si Thare ng pitong pung taon, at naging anak si Abram, si Nachor at si Haran.
27 Now these were the descendants of Terah. Terah became the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran, and Haran became the father of Lot.
Ito nga ang mga lahi ni Thare. Naging anak ni Thare si Abram, si Nachor, at si Haran; at naging anak ni Haran si Lot.
28 Haran died in the presence of his father Terah in the land of his birth, in Ur of the Chaldeans.
At namatay si Haran bago namatay ang kaniyang amang si Thare sa lupaing kaniyang tinubuan, sa Ur ng mga Caldeo.
29 Abram and Nahor took wives. The name of Abram's wife was Sarai and the name of Nahor's wife was Milkah, a daughter of Haran, who was the father of Milkah and Iskah.
At nagsipagasawa si Abram at si Nachor: ang pangalan ng asawa ni Abram ay Sarai; at ang pangalan ng asawa ni Nachor, ay Milca, anak ni Haran, ama ni Milca at ama ni Iscah.
30 Now Sarai was barren; she had no child.
At si Sarai ay baog; siya'y walang anak.
31 Terah took Abram his son, Lot the son of his son Haran, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram's wife, and together they left Ur of the Chaldeans, to go into the land of Canaan. But they came to Haran and stayed there.
At ipinagsama ni Thare si Abram na kaniyang anak, at si Lot na anak ni Haran, na anak ng kaniyang anak, at si Sarai na kaniyang manugang, asawa ni Abram na kaniyang anak; at samasamang nagsialis sa Ur ng mga Caldeo upang magsipasok sa lupain ng Canaan, at nagsidating sila sa Haran, at nagsitahan doon.
32 Terah lived 205 years and then died in Haran.
At ang mga naging araw ni Thare ay dalawang daan at limang taon: at namatay si Thare sa Haran.
