< Genesisy 11 >

1 Ie henane zay, raike ty fivimby naho fisaontsi’ ze kila ondaty.
The whole earth was of one language and of one speech.
2 Aa ie niombotse boak’ atiñanañe le nandoak’ an-tane atao Sinare naho nanjo motombey vaho nañialo eo.
As they traveled east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they lived there.
3 Le nifanaontsy ty hoe: Antao hamboatse birìke oroañe soa. Nisolo vato ty birike’ iareo vaho solin-tane ty fanosoha’e.
They said to one another, “Come, let’s make bricks, and burn them thoroughly.” They had brick for stone, and they used tar for mortar.
4 Le hoe iereo: Antao hañoren-drova naho fitilik’ abo aman-dengo mitio­tiotse an-dikerañe añe vaho hanoeñe tahinañe tika, tsy mone hivarakaike an-tarehe’ ty tane toy.
They said, “Come, let’s build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top reaches to the sky, and let’s make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad on the surface of the whole earth.”
5 Nizotso mb’eo t’Iehovà hivazoho i rovay naho i fitilik’abo ranjie’ o ana’ ondatioo.
The LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men built.
6 Le hoe t’Iehovà, Hehe t’ie ondaty mitokañe, songa aman-tsaontsy raike, le ingo ty fifotoran-draha’e, ie henaneo tsy eo ty hahasebañe ze safirie’ iereo hanoeñe.
The LORD said, “Behold, they are one people, and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do. Now nothing will be withheld from them, which they intend to do.
7 Aa le antao hizo­tso mb’eo hañalikàlike ty fivimbi’ iareo tsy hifan­ka­hazo saontsy
Come, let’s go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.”
8 aa le nampiparatsiahe’ Iehovà ambone’ ty tane toy iereo vaho nijihetse ty fañoreñañe i rovay.
So the LORD scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth. They stopped building the city.
9 Ie nanoeñe: Bavèle, amy te navali­tsikota’ Iehovà ze hene saontsi’ ty tane toy vaho nampiparaitahe’ Iehovà ambone’ ty tane bey toy iereo.
Therefore its name was called Babel, because there the LORD confused the language of all the earth. From there, the LORD scattered them abroad on the surface of all the earth.
