< Genesis 11 >
1 At ang buong lupa ay iisa ang wika at iisa ang salita.
And the whole earth was of one language, and of one kind of words.
2 At nangyari, na, sa kanilang paglalakbay sa silanganan, ay nakasumpong sila ng isang kapatagan sa lupain ng Sinar; at sila'y nanahan doon.
And it came to pass, as they journeyed toward the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they dwelt there.
3 At nagsangusapang, Halikayo! tayo'y gumawa ng mga laryo, at ating lutuing mabuti. At inari nilang bato ang laryo at ang betun ay inaring argamasa.
And they said to one another, Go to, let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly. And thus the brick served them for stone, and slime served them for mortar.
4 At nagsipagsabi, Halikayo! Magtayo tayo ng isang bayan natin at ng isang moog, na ang taluktok niyaon ay aabot hanggang sa langit, at magtaglay tayo ng isang ngalan; baka tayo'y mangalat sa ibabaw ng buong lupa.
And they said, Go to, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower, the top of which may reach unto heaven; and let us make ourselves a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
5 At bumaba ang Panginoon upang tingnan ang bayan at ang moog, na itinayo ng mga anak ng mga tao.
And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of man were building.
6 At sinabi ng Panginoon, Narito, sila'y iisang bayan at silang lahat ay may isang wika; at ito ang kanilang pinasimulang gawin: at, ngayon nga'y walang makasasawata sa anomang kanilang balaking gawin.
And the Lord said, Behold, it is one people, and they have all one language, and this is the first thing they undertake to do; and now shall they not be restrained in all which they have imagined to do?
7 Halikayo! tayo'y bumaba at diyan din ay ating guluhin ang kanilang wika, na anopa't sila'y huwag magkatalastasan sa kanilang salita.
Go to, let us go down, and confound there their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.
8 Ganito pinanabog sila ng Panginoon mula riyan, sa ibabaw ng buong lupa; at kanilang iniwan ang pagtatayo ng bayan.
So the Lord scattered them abroad from there over the face of all the earth; and they left off to build the city.
9 Kaya ang pangalang itinawag ay Babel; sapagka't doon ginulo ng Panginoon ang wika ng buong lupa: at mula roon ay pinanabog sila ng Panginoon sa ibabaw ng buong lupa.
Therefore is the name of it called Babel, because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth; and from there did the Lord scatter them abroad over the face of all the earth.
10 Ito ang sali't saling lahi ni Sem. May isang daan taon si Sem at naging anak si Arphaxad, dalawang taon pagkatapos ng bahang gumunaw,
These are the generations of Shem: Shem, when a hundred years old, begat Arpachshad, two years after the flood.
11 At nabuhay si Sem, pagkatapos na maipanganak si Arphaxad, ng limang daang taon, at nagkaanak ng mga lalake at mga babae.
And Shem lived after he had begotten Arpachshad five hundred years; and begat sons and daughters.

And Arpachshad lived five and thirty years, and begat Shelach.

17 At nabuhay si Heber pagkatapos na maipanganak si Peleg, ng apat na raan at tatlong pung taon, at nagkaanak ng mga lalake at mga babae.
And Eber lived after he had begotten Peleg four hundred and thirty years; and begat sons and daughters.
18 At nabuhay si Peleg ng tatlong pung taon, at naging anak si Reu:
And Peleg lived thirty years, and begat Reu.
19 At nabuhay si Peleg pagkatapos na maipanganak si Reu, ng dalawang daan at siyam na taon; at nagkaanak ng mga lalake at mga babae.
And Peleg lived after he had begotten Reu two hundred and nine years; and begat sons and daughters.
20 At nabuhay si Reu ng tatlong pu't dalawang taon, at naging anak si Serug:
And Reu lived two and thirty years, and begat Serug.
21 At nabuhay si Reu pagkatapos na maipanganak si Serug, ng dalawang daan at pitong taon, at nagkaanak ng mga lalake at mga babae.
And Reu lived after he had begotten Serug two hundred and seven years; and begat sons and daughters.
22 At nabuhay si Serug ng tatlong pung taon, at naging anak si Nachor:
And Serug lived thirty years, and begat Nachor.
23 At nabuhay si Serug pagkatapos maipanganak si Nachor, ng dalawang daang taon, at nagkaanak ng mga lalake at mga babae.
And Serug lived after he had begotten Nachor two hundred years; and begat sons and daughters.
24 At nabuhay si Nachor ng dalawang pu't siyam na taon, at naging anak si Thare:
And Nachor lived nine and twenty years, and begat Terach.
25 At nabuhay si Nachor pagkatapos na maipanganak si Thare, ng isang daan at labing siyam na taon, at nagkaanak ng mga lalake at mga babae.
And Nachor lived after he had begotten Terach a hundred and nineteen years; and begat sons and daughters.
26 At nabuhay si Thare ng pitong pung taon, at naging anak si Abram, si Nachor at si Haran.
And Terach lived seventy years, and begat Abram, Nachor, and Haran.
27 Ito nga ang mga lahi ni Thare. Naging anak ni Thare si Abram, si Nachor, at si Haran; at naging anak ni Haran si Lot.
Now these are the generations of Terach: Terach begat Abram, Nachor, and Haran; and Haran begat Lot.
28 At namatay si Haran bago namatay ang kaniyang amang si Thare sa lupaing kaniyang tinubuan, sa Ur ng mga Caldeo.
And Haran died before his father Terach in the land of his nativity, in Ur of the Chaldees.
29 At nagsipagasawa si Abram at si Nachor: ang pangalan ng asawa ni Abram ay Sarai; at ang pangalan ng asawa ni Nachor, ay Milca, anak ni Haran, ama ni Milca at ama ni Iscah.
And Abram and Nachor took themselves wives; the name of Abram's wife was Sarai; and the name of Nachor's wife was Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah, and the father of Yiscah.
30 At si Sarai ay baog; siya'y walang anak.
But Sarai was barren; she had no child.
31 At ipinagsama ni Thare si Abram na kaniyang anak, at si Lot na anak ni Haran, na anak ng kaniyang anak, at si Sarai na kaniyang manugang, asawa ni Abram na kaniyang anak; at samasamang nagsialis sa Ur ng mga Caldeo upang magsipasok sa lupain ng Canaan, at nagsidating sila sa Haran, at nagsitahan doon.
And Terach took Abram his son, and Lot, the son of Haran, his son's son, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, the wife of his son Abram; and they went forth with them from Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan; and they came unto Charan, and dwelt there.
32 At ang mga naging araw ni Thare ay dalawang daan at limang taon: at namatay si Thare sa Haran.
And the days of Terach were two hundred and five years; and Terach died in Charan.
