Postanak 11
1 A bijaše na cijeloj zemlji jedan jezik i jednake rijeèi.
Now the whole world had one language and a common form of speech.
2 A kad otidoše od istoka, naðoše ravnicu u zemlji Senarskoj, i naseliše se ondje.
And as people journeyed eastward, they found a plain in the land of Shinar and settled there.
3 Pa rekoše meðu sobom: hajde da pravimo ploèe i da ih u vatri peèemo. I bjehu im opeke mjesto kamena i smola zemljana mjesto kreèa.
And they said to one another, “Come, let us make bricks and bake them thoroughly.” So they used brick instead of stone, and tar instead of mortar.
4 Poslije rekoše: hajde da sazidamo grad i kulu, kojoj æe vrh biti do neba, da steèemo sebi ime, da se ne bismo rasijali po zemlji.
“Come,” they said, “let us build for ourselves a city with a tower that reaches to the heavens, that we may make a name for ourselves and not be scattered over the face of all the earth.”
5 A Gospod siðe da vidi grad i kulu, što zidahu sinovi èovjeèiji.
Then the LORD came down to see the city and the tower that the sons of men were building.
6 I reèe Gospod: gle, narod jedan, i jedan jezik u svijeh, i to poèeše raditi, i neæe im smetati ništa da ne urade što su naumili.
And the LORD said, “If they have begun to do this as one people speaking the same language, then nothing they devise will be beyond them.
7 Hajde da siðemo, i da im pometemo jezik, da ne razumiju jedan drugoga što govore.
Come, let Us go down and confuse their language, so that they will not understand one another’s speech.”
8 Tako ih Gospod rasu odande po svoj zemlji, te ne sazidaše grada.
So the LORD scattered them from there over the face of all the earth, and they stopped building the city.
9 Zato se prozva Vavilon, jer ondje pomete Gospod jezik cijele zemlje, i odande ih rasu Gospod po svoj zemlji.
That is why it is called Babel, for there the LORD confused the language of the whole world, and from that place the LORD scattered them over the face of all the earth.
10 Ovo je pleme Simovo: bijaše Simu sto godina, kad rodi Arfaksada, druge godine poslije potopa.
