< Mose 1 11 >
1 Le ɣe ma ɣi me la, amegbetɔƒome blibo la doa gbe ɖeka ko.
Umhlaba wonke wawulolimi lunye lokukhuluma okufananayo.
2 Esi amewo de asi agbɔsɔsɔ ɖe edzi me la, woɖo ta ɣedzeƒe lɔƒo, eye woke ɖe anyigba aɖe si sɔ la ŋu le Sinar. Eteƒe medidi kura hafi amewo sɔ gbɔ ɖe afi sia o.
Kwathi abantu belokhu beqhelela empumalanga, bafumana indawo evulekileyo eShinari basebesakha khona.
3 Wogblɔ na wo nɔewo be, “Miva, mina míame anyikpewo, míaƒo dzo wo nyuie.” Wowɔ anyikpe ŋu dɔ ɖe kpe ŋutɔ teƒe kple aŋɔ yibɔ ɖe anyi teƒe.
Basebetshelana bathi, “Kasitshayeni izitina sizitshise kakhulu.” Babesebenzisa izitina endaweni yamatshe, lethara endaweni yodaka.
4 Woyi edzi gblɔ be, “Miva, mina míatso du na mía ɖokui, eye míawɔ gbetakpɔxɔ kɔkɔ aɖe wòayi aɖatɔ dziƒo, be míaƒe ŋkɔ nade du ne míagakaka ɖe anyigba katã dzi o.”
Basebesithi, “Zwanini, kasizakheleni idolobho libe lomphongolo ofika emazulwini, ukuze sizenzele ibizo singaze sasabalala umhlaba wonke.”
5 Ke esi Yehowa va kpɔ dua kple mɔ si tum amegbetɔviwo nɔ la,
Kodwa uThixo wehla wazalibona idolobho kanye lomphongolo abantu ababewakha.
6 egblɔ be, “Ne woate ŋu awɔ nu siawo katã fifia, esi wònye azɔ koe wodze sii be gbe ɖeka gblɔm yewole, eye dukɔ ɖeka yewonye la, mibu nu si woava wɔ emegbe la ŋu kpɔ! Naneke meli si woado kpo wɔwɔ o.
UThixo wathi, “Nxa bengabantu banye bekhuluma limi lunye sebeqalisile ukwenza lokhu, pho kakukho okungabehlula.
7 Mina míaɖi ayi anyigba dzi, eye míatɔtɔ woƒe gbe ale be womagase wo nɔewo gɔme o!”
Zwanini, kasehleni siye phansi sisanganise ulimi lwabo bangabe besazwana.”
8 Ale Yehowa ka wo katã hlẽ ɖe anyigba blibo la dzi. Ale du la tsotso nu tso.
Kanjalo uThixo wabahlakaza emhlabeni wonke, bayekela ukwakha idolobho.
9 Eya ta wona ŋkɔ du ma be Babel si gɔmee nye, “Tɔtɔ,” elabena afi ma Yehowa tɔtɔ gbe na amewo le, eye wokaka ɖe afi sia afi le anyigba blibo la dzi.
Kungakho labizwa ngokuthi yiBhabheli, ngoba khonapho uThixo wasanganisa ulimi lomhlaba wonke. Kusukela lapho uThixo wabahlakazela emhlabeni wonke.
