< Gênesis 11 >
1 E era toda a terra d'uma mesma lingua, e d'uma mesma falla.
And all the earth was one lip, and there was one language to all.
2 E aconteceu que, partindo elles do Oriente, acharam um valle na terra de Shinar; e habitaram ali.
And it came to pass as they moved from the east, they found a plain in the land of Senaar, and they lived there.
3 E disseram uns aos outros: Eia, façamos tijolos, e queimemol-os bem. E foi-lhes o tijolo por pedra, e o betume por cal.
And a man said to his neighbour, Come, let us make bricks and bake them with fire. And the brick was to them for stone, and their mortar was bitumen.
4 E disseram: Eia, edifiquemos nós uma cidade e uma torre cujo cume toque nos céus, e façamo-nos um nome, para que não sejamos espalhados sobre a face de toda a terra.
And they said, Come, let us build to ourselves a city and tower, whose top shall be to heaven, and let us make to ourselves a name, before we are scattered abroad upon the face of all the earth.
5 Então desceu o Senhor para ver a cidade e a torre que os filhos dos homens edificavam;
And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the sons of men built.
6 E disse. Eis que o povo é um, e todos teem uma mesma lingua; e isto é o que começam a fazer: e agora, não haverá restricção para tudo o que elles intentarem fazer?
And the Lord said, Behold, [there is] one race, and one lip of all, and they have begun to do this, and now nothing shall fail from them of all that they may have undertaken to do.
7 Eia, desçamos, e confundamos ali a sua lingua, para que não intenda um a lingua do outro.
Come, and having gone down let us there confound their tongue, that they may not understand each the voice of his neighbour.
8 Assim o Senhor os espalhou d'ali sobre a face de toda a terra: e cessaram de edificar a cidade.
And the Lord scattered them thence over the face of all the earth, and they left off building the city and the tower.
9 Por isso se chamou o seu nome Babel, porquanto ali confundiu o Senhor a lingua de toda a terra, e d'ali os espalhou o Senhor sobre a face de toda a terra.
On this account its name was called Confusion, because there the Lord confounded the languages of all the earth, and thence the Lord scattered them upon the face of all the earth.
