< Genesis 11 >

1 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
Erat autem terra labii unius, et sermonum eorumdem.
2 And it came to pass as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they dwelt there.
Cumque proficiscerentur de oriente, invenerunt campum in terra Sennaar, et habitaverunt in eo.
3 And they said one to another, come, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for mortar.
Dixitque alter ad proximum suum: Venite, faciamus lateres, et coquamus eos igni. Habueruntque lateres pro saxis, et bitumen pro caemento:
4 And they said, come, let us build us a city, and a tower, whose top [may reach] to heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we should be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
et dixerunt: Venite, faciamus nobis civitatem et turrim, cuius culmen pertingat ad caelum: et celebremus nomen nostrum antequam dividamur in universas terras.
5 And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men were building.
Descendit autem Dominus ut videret civitatem et turrim, quam aedificabant filii Adam,
6 And the LORD said, Behold, the people [is] one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
et dixit: Ecce, unus est populus, et unum est labium omnibus: coeperuntque hoc facere, nec desistent a cogitationibus suis, donec eas opere compleant.
7 Come, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.
Venite igitur, descendamus, et confundamus ibi linguam eorum, ut non audiat unusquisque vocem proximi sui.
8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
Atque ita divisit eos Dominus ex illo loco in universas terras, et cessaverunt aedificare civitatem.
9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel, because the LORD there confounded the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
Et idcirco vocatum est nomen eius Babel, quia ibi confusum est labium universae terrae: et inde dispersit eos Dominus super faciem cunctarum regionum.
10 These [are] the generations of Shem: Shem [was] a hundred years old, and begat Arphaxad two years after the flood:
Hae sunt generationes Sem: Sem erat centum annorum quando genuit Arphaxad, biennio post diluvium.
11 And Shem lived after he begat Arphaxad five hundred years, and begat sons and daughters.
Vixitque Sem postquam genuit Arphaxad, quingentis annis: et genuit filios et filias.
12 And Arphaxad lived five and thirty years, and begat Salah.
Porro Arphaxad vixit triginta quinque annis, et genuit Sale.
13 And Arphaxad lived after he begat Salah four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.
Vixitque Arphaxad postquam genuit Sale, trecentis tribus annis: et genuit filios et filias.
14 And Salah lived thirty years, and begat Eber:
Sale quoque vixit triginta annis, et genuit Heber.
15 And Salah lived after he begat Eber four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.
Vixitque Sale postquam genuit Heber, quadringentis tribus annis: et genuit filios et filias.
16 And Eber lived four and thirty years, and begat Peleg:
Vixit autem Heber triginta quattuor annis, et genuit Phaleg.
17 And Eber lived after he begat Peleg four hundred and thirty years, and begat sons and daughters.
Et vixit Heber postquam genuit Phaleg, quadringentis triginta annis: et genuit filios et filias.
18 And Peleg lived thirty years, and begat Reu:
Vixit quoque Phaleg triginta annis, et genuit Reu.
19 And Peleg lived after he begat Reu two hundred and nine years, and begat sons and daughters.
Vixitque Phaleg postquam genuit Reu, ducentis novem annis, et genuit filios et filias.
20 And Reu lived two and thirty years, and begat Serug.
Vixit autem Reu triginta duobus annis, et genuit Sarug.
21 And Reu lived after he begat Serug two hundred and seven years, and begat sons and daughters.
Vixit quoque Reu postquam genuit Sarug, ducentis septem annis: et genuit filios et filias.
22 And Serug lived thirty years, and begat Nahor:
Vixit vero Sarug triginta annis, et genuit Nachor.
23 And Serug lived after he begat Nahor two hundred years, and begat sons and daughters.
Vixitque Sarug postquam genuit Nachor, ducentis annis: et genuit filios et filias.
24 And Nahor lived nine and twenty years, and begat Terah.
Vixit autem Nachor viginti novem annis, et genuit Thare.
25 And Nahor lived after he begat Terah a hundred and nineteen years, and begat sons and daughters.
Vixitque Nachor postquam genuit Thare, centum decem et novem annis: et genuit filios et filias.
26 And Terah lived seventy years, and begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
Vixitque Thare septuaginta annis, et genuit Abram et Nachor, et Aran.
27 Now these [are] the generations of Terah: Terah begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran: and Haran begat Lot.
Hae sunt autem generationes Thare: Thare genuit Abram, Nachor, et Aran. Porro Aran genuit Lot.
28 And Haran died before his father Terah, in the land of his nativity, in Ur of the Chaldees.
Mortuusque est Aran ante Thare patrem suum, in terra nativitatis suae in Ur Chaldaeorum.
29 And Abram and Nahor took them wives: the name of Abram's wife [was] Sarai; and the name of Nahor's wife Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah, and the father of Iscah.
Duxerunt autem Abram et Nachor uxores: nomen uxoris Abram, Sarai: et nomen uxoris Nachor, Melcha filia Aran patris Melchae, et patris Ieschae.
30 But Sarai [was] barren; she had no child.
Erat autem Sarai sterilis, nec habebat liberos.
31 And Terah took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran his son's son, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram's wife; and they went forth with them from Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan; and they came to Haran, and dwelt there.
Tulit itaque Thare Abram filium suum, et Lot filium Aran, filium filii sui, et Sarai nurum suam, uxorem Abram filii sui, et eduxit eos de Ur Chaldaeorum, ut irent in terram Chanaan: veneruntque usque Haran, et habitaverunt ibi.
32 And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years: and Terah died in Haran.
Et facti sunt dies Thare ducentorum quinque annorum, et mortuus est in Haran.
