Genesis 11
1 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
अहिले सारा पृत्वीमा एउटै भाषा थियो र शब्दहरू पनि उही थिए ।
2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there.
तिनीहरू पूर्वतिर जाँदा, तिनीहरूले शिनारको भूमिमा एउटा मैदान भेट्टाए र तिनीहरू त्यही बसे ।
3 And they said one to another, come, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for mortar.
तिनीहरूले आपसमा भने, “आओ, ईंटहरू बनाऔँ र तिनीहरूलाई राम्ररी पलौँ ।” तिनीहरूसँग ढुङ्गाको सट्टामा ईंट थियो र हिलोको सट्टामा अलकत्रा थियो ।
4 And they said, come, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach to heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we should be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
तिनीहरूले भने, “आओ, हाम्रो निम्ति एउटा सहर बनाऔँ र आकाश नै छुने एउटा धरहरा निर्माण गर्यौँ अनि नाउँ कमाऔँ । यदि हामीले यसो गरनौँ भने हामी सारा पृथ्वीभरि छरपष्ट हुनेछौँ ।”
5 And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men were building.
यसैले परमप्रभु परमेश्वर आदमका सन्तानहरूले निर्माण गरेका त्यो सहर र धरहरा हेर्न तल आउनुभयो ।
6 And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be withheld from them, which they have imagined to do.
परमेप्रभुले भन्नुभयो, “हेर, तिनीहरू एउटै भाषामा एउटै मानिसझैँ छन् अनि तिनीहरूले यसो गर्न सुरु गरिरहेका छन् । तिनीहरूले गर्न चाहेको कुनै पनि कुरा तिनीहरूको निम्ति असम्भव हुनेछैन ।
7 Come, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.
आओ, हामी तल जाऔँ र तिनीहरूका भाषा खलबलाइ दिऔँ, ताकि तिनीहरू एउटाले भनेको अर्काले बुझ्न सकून् ।”
8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from there upon the face of all the earth: and they stopped building the city.
यसैले परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई सारा पृथ्वीभरि छरपष्ट पार्नुभयो र तिनीहरूले त्यो सहर निर्माण गर्न छोडे ।
9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD there confounded the language of all the earth: and from there did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
यसकारण, यसको नाउँ बाबेल राखियो, किनभने परमप्रभुले त्यहाँ सारा पृथ्वीको भाषा खलबलाउनुभयो अनि त्यहाँबाट नै परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई सारा पृथ्वीभरि छरपष्ट पा्र्नुभयो ।

27 Now these are the generations of Terah: Terah begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran begat Lot.
तेरहका सन्तानहरू यिनीहरू थिए । तेरहस अब्राम, नाहोर र हारानका पिता भए अनि हारान लोतका पिता बने ।
28 And Haran died before his father Terah in the land of his nativity, in Ur of the Chaldees.
हारान तिनको पिता तेरहसको सामु नै तिनको जन्म थलो अर्थात् कल्दीहरूको ऊरमा मरे ।
29 And Abram and Nahor took them wives: the name of Abram’s wife was Sarai; and the name of Nahor’s wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah, and the father of Iscah.
अब्राम र नाहोरले विवाह गरे र पत्नि ल्याए । अब्रामकी पत्निको नाउँ साराई थियो र नाहोरकी पत्निको नाउँ मिल्का थियो, तिनी हारानको छोरी थिइन् अनि हारान मिल्का र यिस्काका पिता थिए ।
30 But Sarai was barren; she had no child.
सारा बाँझी थिइन्; तिनको कुनै बालबच्चाहरू थिएनन् ।
31 And Terah took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran his son’s son, and Sarai his daughter in law, his son Abram’s wife; and they went forth with them from Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan; and they came to Haran, and dwelt there.
तेरहले तिनका छोरो अब्राम, हारानाका छोरो लोत र तिनकी बुहारी साराई अर्थात् तिनका छोरो अब्रामको पत्निलाई लिए र कनानतिर जान तिनीहरू कल्दीहरूको ऊरतिर गए । तर तिनीहरू हारानमा आए र त्यहाँ नै बसे ।
32 And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years: and Terah died in Haran.
तेरह २०५ वर्ष बाँचे र तिनी हारानमा नै मरे ।
