< Genesis 11 >

1 At first, all the people in [MTY] the world spoke the same language [DOU].
Ita, maymaysa a pagsasao ti nausar iti entero a daga ken addaanda iti agpapada a sasao.
2 As people moved further east, they arrived at a plain in Babylonia region and began to live there.
Iti panagdaliasatda idiay daya, adda nasarakanda a patad iti daga ti Sinar ket nagnaedda sadiay.
3 Then they said to each other, “(Hey/Come on), let’s form bricks and bake them to make them hard, for building!” So they used bricks instead of stones, and used tar instead of (mortar/a mixture of cement, sand and lime) to hold them together.
Kinunada iti maysa ken maysa, “Umaykayo, agaramidtayo iti adu a ladrillo ket lutuentayo a naimbag.” Addaanda iti ladrillo imbes a bato ken alketran a pangsemento.
4 They said, “Hey, let’s build a city for ourselves! We also ought to build a very high tower that reaches up to the sky! In that way we will become famous! If we do not do this, we will be scattered all over the earth!”
Kinunada, “Umaykayo, mangbangontayo iti maysa a siudad ken maysa a torre a dumanon idiay langit ti tuktokna para kadatayo met laeng, ket agaramidtayo iti bukodtayo a nagan. Ta no saantayo nga aramiden daytoy, mawarawaratayonto iti entero a rabaw ti daga.”
5 So they began to build the city and the tower. Then Yahweh looked down and saw the city and the tower that those [puny] men were building.
Isu a bimmaba ni Yahweh a mangkita iti siudad ken iti torre nga impatakder dagiti kaputotan ni Adan.
6 Yahweh said, “These people are one group that all speak the same language. If they have begun to do this now, then (there is nothing that they will decide to do that will be impossible for them/they will be able to do whatever they decide to do) [LIT]!
Kinuna ni Yahweh, “Kitaenyo, sangsangkamaysa dagitoy a tattao nga addaan iti maymaysa a pagsasao, ket irugrugidan ti agaramid iti daytoy! Iti mabiit awanton ti banag a gandatenda nga aramiden a saandanto a kabaelan nga isayangkat.
7 So, okay/now, we will go down there and cause there to be many different languages, so that they will not be able to understand each other.”
Umaykayo, bumabatayo ket riribukentayo ti pagsasaoda tapno saanda nga agkikinnaawatan.”
8 So Yahweh did that. As a result, the people stopped building the city, and Yahweh caused them to disperse all over the earth.
Isu a winarawara ida ni Yahweh iti entero a rabaw ti daga ket insardengda ti panangbangonda iti siudad.
9 The city was called Babel which means ‘confusion’, because there Yahweh caused the people to become confused because the people [MTY] spoke [different languages that the others could not understand], not just one language. From there Yahweh caused them to disperse all over the earth.
Napanaganan ngarud daytoy iti Babel gapu ta riniribok ni Yahweh ti pagsasao ti entero a daga ket manipud sadiay, iti panangwarawara kadakuada ni Yahweh, impanna ida iti ballasiw taaw iti entero a rabaw ti daga.
