Genesis 11
1 Then the whole earth was of one language and one speache.
Nʼoge ahụ, ụwa niile nwere naanị otu asụsụ, okwu niile bụkwa otu.
2 And as they went from the East, they found a plaine in the land of Shinar, and there they abode.
Mgbe ndị mmadụ gbasara nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ ha chọtara ala dị larịị na Shaịna biri nʼebe ahụ.
3 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.
Ha gwarịtara onwe ha okwu sị, “Bịanụ ka anyị kpụọ brik, kpọọ ha ọkụ nke ọma.” Ya mere, ha kpụrụ brik kama nkume, jirikwa bitumen kama ụrọ.
4 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.
Mgbe ahụ, ha kwuru sị, “Bịanụ ka anyị wuore onwe anyị obodo na ụlọ elu, nke elu ya ga-eru nʼeluigwe, ka anyị si otu a meere onwe anyị aha, ka anyị ghara ịbụ ndị a ga-agbasa nʼụwa niile.”
5 But the Lord came downe, to see the citie and towre, which the sonnes of men builded.
Onyenwe anyị rịdatara hụ obodo ahụ na ụlọ elu ahụ ndị mmadụ na-ewu.
6 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.
Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “Lee! Ọ bụrụ na ha malitere ime ihe dị otu a, ugbu a ha bụ otu ndị, nweekwa otu asụsụ, o nweghị ihe ha zubere ime nke ha na-apụghị ime.
7 Come on, let vs goe downe, and there confound their language, that euery one perceiue not anothers speache.
Ngwa, ka anyị rịda gaa gbarụọ asụsụ ha, ka onye o bụla ghara ịghọta asụsụ ibe ya.”
8 So ye Lord scattered them from thence vpon all the earth, and they left off to build the citie.
Onyenwe anyị mere ka ha gbasaa nʼelu ụwa niile. Ha kwụsịkwara iwu obodo ahụ.
9 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.
Ọ bụkwa nke a mere e ji kpọọ obodo ahụ Babel nʼihi na ọ bụ nʼebe ahụ ka Onyenwe anyị wetara ọgbaaghara nʼasụsụ ndị niile bi nʼụwa. Ọ bụkwa nʼebe ahụ ka Onyenwe anyị si gbasasịa ha nʼelu ụwa dum.
10 These are the generations of Shem: Shem was an hundreth yeere olde, and begate Arpachshad two yeere after the flood.
Nke a bụ akụkọ banyere usoro ezinaụlọ Shem. Mgbe afọ abụọ gafechara site nʼoge uju mmiri ahụ, nʼoge Shem gbara narị afọ, ọ mụtara Apakshad.
11 And Shem liued, after he begate Arpachshad, fiue hundreth yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters.
Shem dịrị ndụ, mgbe ọ mụsịrị Apakshad, narị afọ ise ọzọ, mụtakwa ụmụ ndị ikom na ụmụ ndị inyom.
12 Also Arpachshad liued fiue and thirtie yeeres, and begate Shelah.
Mgbe Apakshad gbara iri afọ atọ na ise, ọ mụtara Shela.
13 And Arpachshad liued, after he begate Shelah, foure hundreth and three yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters.
Mgbe ọ mụchara Shela, ọ dịrị ndụ narị afọ anọ na atọ ọzọ, mụta ụmụ ndị ikom na ụmụ ndị inyom.
14 And Shelah liued thirtie yeeres, and begat Eber.
Shela gbara iri afọ atọ mgbe ọ mụrụ nwa ya nwoke Eba.
15 So Shelah liued, after he begat Eber, foure hundreth and three yeeres, and begat sonnes and daughters.
Mgbe ọ ghọrọ nna Eba, ọ dịrị ndụ narị afọ anọ na atọ, mụta ụmụ ndị ikom na ụmụ ndị inyom.
16 Likewise Eber liued foure and thirtie yeres, and begate Peleg.
Eba gbara iri afọ atọ na anọ mgbe ọ mụrụ Peleg.
17 So Eber liued, after he begate Peleg, foure hundreth and thirtie yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters
Mgbe ọ ghọrọ nna Peleg, ọ dịrị ndụ narị afọ anọ na iri atọ ọzọ mụta ụmụ ndị ikom na ụmụ ndị inyom.
18 And Peleg liued thirtie yeeres, and begate Reu.
Peleg gbara iri afọ atọ mgbe ọ mụrụ Reu.
19 And Peleg liued, after he begate Reu, two hundreth and nine yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters.
Emesịa, mgbe ọ ghọrọ nna Reu, ọ dịrị ndụ narị afọ abụọ na itoolu ọzọ mụta ụmụ ndị ikom na ụmụ ndị inyom.
20 Also Reu liued two and thirtie yeeres, and begate Serug.
Reu gbara iri afọ atọ na abụọ mgbe ọ mụrụ Serug.
21 So Reu liued, after he begate Serug, two hundreth and seuen yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters.
Emesịa, ọ dịrị ndụ narị afọ abụọ na asaa ọzọ, mgbe ọ mụsịrị Serug, ọ mụtakwara ụmụ ndị ikom na ụmụ ndị inyom.
22 Moreouer Serug liued thirtie yeeres, and begate Nahor.
Serug gbara iri afọ atọ mgbe ọ mụrụ Nahọ.
23 And Serug liued, after he begate Nahor, two hundreth yeeres, and begate sonnes and daughters.
Emesịa, mgbe ọ ghọrọ nna Nahọ, ọ dịrị ndụ narị afọ abụọ ọzọ mụta ụmụ ndị ikom na ụmụ ndị inyom.
24 And Nahor liued nine and twentie yeeres, and begate Terah.
Nahọ gbara iri afọ abụọ na itoolu mgbe ọ mụrụ Tera.
25 So Nahor liued, after he begate Terah, an hundreth and nineteene yeeres, and begat sonnes and daughters.
Emesịa, mgbe ọ ghọrọ nna Tera, ọ dịrị ndụ narị afọ na afọ iri na itoolu ọzọ, mụta ụmụ ndị ikom na ụmụ ndị inyom.
26 So Terah liued seuentie yeeres, and begate Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
Mgbe Tera gbara iri afọ asaa, ọ ghọrọ nna Ebram, Nahọ na Haran.
27 Nowe these are the generations of Terah: Terah begate Abram, Nahor, and Haran: and Haran begate Lot.
Nke a bụ akụkọ gbasara usoro ezinaụlọ Tera. Tera ghọrọ nna Ebram, Nahọ na Haran. Haran ghọrọ nna Lọt.
28 Then Haran died before Terah his father in the land of his natiuitie, in Vr of the Caldees.
Haran nwụrụ nʼihu nna ya Tera nʼala ebe a nọ mụọ ya, nke bụ na Ụọ, obodo ndị Kaldịa.
29 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.
Ebram na Nahọ lụrụ nwunye. Aha nwunye Ebram bụ Serai ma aha nwunye Nahọ bụ Milka. Milka bụ nwa Haran, onye bụ nna Milka na Iska.
30 But Sarai was barren, and had no childe.
Ma Serai bụ nwanyị aga, ọ mụtaghị nwa ọbụla.
31 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.
Tera kpọrọ nwa ya Ebram, na nwa nwa ya Lọt, onye bụ nwa Haran, na nwunye nwa ya Serai, bụ nwunye Ebram, duru ha hapụ Ụọ, obodo ndị Kaldịa, pụọ gawa nʼala Kenan. Ma mgbe ha bịarutere nʼobodo Haran, ha kwụsịrị biri nʼebe ahụ.
32 So the dayes of Terah were two hundreth and fiue yeeres, and Terah died in Haran.
Ọ bụ nʼobodo Haran ka Tera nọ nwụọ, mgbe ọ gbara narị afọ abụọ na ise.
