創世記 11
1 全地は一の言語一の音のみなりき
And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
2 茲に人衆東に移りてシナルの地に平野を得て其處に居住り
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.
3 彼等互に言けるは去來甎石を作り之を善く爇んと遂に石の代に甎石を獲灰沙の代に石漆を獲たり
And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them throughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter.
4 又曰けるは去來邑と塔とを建て其塔の頂を天にいたらしめん斯して我等名を揚て全地の表面に散ることを免れんと
And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top [may reach] unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
5 ヱホバ降臨りて彼人衆の建る邑と塔とを觀たまへり
And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.
6 ヱホバ言たまひけるは視よ民は一にして皆一の言語を用ふ今既に此を爲し始めたり然ば凡て其爲んと圖維る事は禁止め得られざるべし
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.
7 去來我等降り彼處にて彼等の言語を淆し互に言語を通ずることを得ざらしめんと
Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.
8 ヱホバ遂に彼等を彼處より全地の表面に散したまひければ彼等邑を建ることを罷たり
So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
9 是故に其名はバベル(淆亂)と呼ばる是はヱホバ彼處に全地の言語を淆したまひしに由てなり彼處よりヱホバ彼等を全地の表に散したまへり
Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
