Genesis 11
1 Now the whole earth used one language and had the same words.
Ngayon ang buong mundo ay gumagamit ng iisang wika at parehong mga salita.
2 As they journeyed in the east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar and they settled there.
Sa kanilang paglalakbay sa silangan, nakatagpo sila ng isang kapatagan sa lupain ng Shinar at doon sila nanirahan.
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.
Sinabi nila sa isa’t isa, “Halikayo, gumawa tayo ng mga laryo at lutuin nating mabuti.” Laryo ang gamit nila sa halip na bato at alkitran bilang semento.
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.”
Sinabi nila, “Halikayo, magtayo tayo ng isang lungsod at isang tore para sa atin kung saan ang tuktok ay aabot hanggang langit, at gumawa tayo ng pangalan para sa ating mga sarili. Kung hindi natin gagawin ito, magkakawatak-watak tayo sa buong mundo.”
5 So Yahweh came down to see the city and the tower which the descendants of Adam had built.
Kaya bumaba si Yahweh para tingnan ang lungsod at ang toreng itinayo ng mga kaapu-apuhan ni Adan.
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.
Sinabi ni Yahweh, “Tingnan ninyo, sila ay iisang bayan na may iisang wika, at sinisimulan nilang gawin ito! Hindi magtatagal lahat ng gusto nilang gawin ay hindi na magiging imposible para sa kanila.
7 Come, let us go down and confuse their language there, so that they may not understand each other.”
Halikayo, bumaba tayo at lituhin natin ang kanilang wika roon, para hindi nila maintindihan ang isa’t isa.
8 So Yahweh scattered them from there across the surface of all the earth and they stopped building the city.
Kaya ikinalat sila ni Yahweh mula roon tungo sa lahat ng dako ng mundo at huminto sila sa pagtatayo ng lungsod.
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, pinangalanan itong Babel, dahil doon nilito ni Yahweh ang wika ng buong mundo at mula roon ikinalat sila ni Yahweh sa iba’t ibang dako ng mundo.

26 After Terah had lived seventy years, he became the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
Matapos mamuhay si Terah ng pitumpung taon, siya ay naging ama ni Abram, Nahor, and 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.
Ngayon ito ang mga kaapu-apuhan ni Terah. Si Terah ay naging ama nina Abram, Nahor, at Haran, at si Haran ay naging ama ni Lot.
28 Haran died in the presence of his father Terah in the land of his birth, in Ur of the Chaldeans.
Namatay si Haran sa piling ng kaniyang amang si Terah sa lupain na kaniyang sinilangan, 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.
Kumuha ng mga asawa sina Abram at Nahor. Ang pangalan ng asawa ni Abram ay Sarai at ang pangalan ng asawa ni Nahor ay Milcah, anak na babae ni Haran, na ama ni Milcah at Iscah.
30 Now Sarai was barren; she had no child.
Ngayon si Sarai ay baog; siya ay 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.
Kinuha ni Terah ang anak niyang si Abram, si Lot na anak ng kaniyang anak na si Haran, Sarai na kaniyang manugang, asawa ng kaniyang anak na si Abram, at sama-sama nilang iniwan ang Ur ng mga Caldeo, para pumunta sa lupain ng Canaan. Pero sila ay dumating sa Haran at nanatili roon.
32 Terah lived 205 years and then died in Haran.
Nabuhay pa si Terah ng 205 na taon at pagkatapos ay namatay sa Haran.
