Ebandeli 11
1 Na tango wana, bato ya mokili mobimba bazalaki koloba monoko moko mpe bazalaki na elobeli moko.
Then the whole earth was of one language and one speache.
2 Tango bato bazalaki kotambola mpo na kokende na ngambo ya weste, bamonaki etando moko ya monene na mokili ya Shineari mpe bavandaki kuna.
And as they went from the East, they found a plaine in the land of Shinar, and there they abode.
3 Balobanaki bango na bango: « Tosala babiliki mpe totumba yango na moto. » Boye, basalelaki babiliki lokola mabanga mpe potopoto ya mwindo mpo na kotongela.
And they said one to another, Come, let vs make bricke, and burne it in the fire. So they had bricke for stone, and slime had they in steade of morter.
4 Balobaki: « Tokende, totonga engumba mpo na biso mpe ndako molayi oyo songe na yango ekokoma kino na lola, mpo ete kombo na biso ekende sango mpe topanzana te na mokili mobimba. »
Also they said, Goe to, let vs builde vs a citie and a towre, whose top may reache vnto the heauen, that we may get vs a name, lest we be scattered vpon the whole earth.
5 Kasi Yawe akitaki mpo na kotala engumba mpe ndako molayi oyo bato babandaki kotonga.
But the Lord came downe, to see the citie and towre, which the sonnes of men builded.
6 Yawe alobaki: « Lokola bato oyo nyonso balongi kokoma ekolo moko mpe koloba monoko moko, bongo bakomi kino kosala mosala monene oyo, eloko moko te ekopekisa bango sik’oyo kokokisa mabongisi nyonso oyo bakokana kosala!
And the Lord said, Beholde, the people is one, and they all haue one language, and this they begin to doe, neither can they now be stopped from whatsoeuer they haue imagined to do.
7 Boye, tokita mpe totia mobulu kati na maloba na bango mpo ete bango na bango bayokana lisusu te. »
Come on, let vs goe downe, and there confound their language, that euery one perceiue not anothers speache.
8 Wuta na Babeli, Yawe apanzaki bango na mokili mobimba mpe batikaki kotonga engumba.
So ye Lord scattered them from thence vpon all the earth, and they left off to build the citie.
9 Yango wana, babengaka yango Babeli, pamba te kuna nde Yawe atiaki mobulu kati na maloba ya bato ya mokili mobimba, mpe wuta kuna, Yawe apanzaki bato na mokili mobimba.
Therefore the name of it was called Babel, because the Lord did there confounde the language of all the earth: from thence then did the Lord scatter them vpon all the earth.

Then Haran died before Terah his father in the land of his natiuitie, in Vr of the Caldees.
29 Kombo ya mwasi ya Abrami ezalaki « Sarayi, » mpe kombo ya mwasi ya Naori ezalaki « Milika. » Milika azalaki mwana mwasi ya Arani; mpe Arani azalaki na mwana mwasi mosusu: kombo na ye ezalaki « Yisika. »
So Abram and Nahor tooke them wiues. The name of Abrams wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahors wife Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah, and the father of Iscah.
30 Sarayi azalaki ekomba: azalaki na mwana te.
But Sarai was barren, and had no childe.
31 Tera azwaki Abrami, mwana na ye ya mobali; Loti, koko na ye mpe mwana mobali ya Arani; mpe Sarayi, bokilo na ye mpe mwasi ya mwana na ye Abrami, babimaki na Uri ya bato ya Chalide mpo na kokende na Kanana. Kasi tango bakomaki na engumba Arani, bavandaki kuna.
Then Terah tooke Abram his sonne, and Lot the sonne of Haran, his sonnes sonne, and Sarai his daughter in lawe, his sonne Abrams wife: and they departed together from Vr of the Caldees, to goe into the land of Canaan, and they came to Haran, and dwelt there.
