창세기 11
1 온 땅의 구음이 하나이요 언어가 하나이었더라
So it came to pass that, all the earth, was of one manner of speech, —and of one stock of words.
2 이에 그들이 동방으로 옮기다가 시날 평지를 만나 거기 거하고
And it came to pass as they brake away onwards, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and dwelt there.
3 서로 말하되 `자, 벽돌을 만들어 견고히 굽자' 하고 이에 벽돌로 돌을 대신하며 역청으로 진흙을 대신하고
Then said they, each man to his friend, Come on! let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly, —So the bricks, served them for stone, and bitumen, served them for mortar,
4 또 말하되 `자, 성과 대를 쌓아 대 꼭대기를 하늘에 닿게 하여 우리 이름을 내고 온 지면에 흩어짐을 면하자' 하였더니
And they said Come on! let us build for ourselves a city, and a tower with its head in the heavens, so let us make for ourselves a name, —lest we be scattered abroad over the face of all the earth.
5 여호와께서 인생들의 쌓는 성과 대를 보시려고 강림하셨더라
And Yahweh came down, to behold the city, and the tower, —which the sons of men had built.
6 여호와께서 가라사대 이 무리가 한 족속이요, 언어도 하나이므로 이같이 시작하였으니 이후로는 그 경영하는 일을 금지할 수 없으리로다
Then said Yahweh: Lo! one people and one manner of speech, have they all, this, then is what they have begun to do, —now, therefore, nothing will be withholden from them which they may plan to do.
7 자, 우리가 내려가서 거기서 그들의 언어를 혼잡케 하여 그들로 서로 알아듣지 못하게 하자 하시고
Come on! let us go down, and there confuse their speech, —that they may not understand, each man the speech of his friend.
8 여호와께서 거기서 그들을 온 지면에 흩으신 고로 그들이 성 쌓기를 그쳤더라
So Yahweh scattered them from thence over the face of all the earth, —and so they left off building the city.
9 그러므로 그 이름을 바벨이라 하니 이는 여호와께서 거기서 온 땅의 언어를 혼잡케 하셨음이라 여호와께서 거기서 그들을 온 지면에 흩으셨더라
For this cause, was the name thereof called Babel ["Confusion"]; because there, did Yahweh confuse the speech of all the earth, —and, from thence, did Yahweh scatter them abroad, over the face of all the earth.
