Genesis 11
1 The whole earth was of one language and of one speech.
To, a lokacin, yaren mutanen duniya ɗaya ne, maganarsu kuma ɗaya ce.
2 As they traveled east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they lived there.
Yayinda mutane suke ta yin ƙaura zuwa gabas, sai suka sami fili a Shinar, suka zauna a can.
3 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.
Suka ce wa juna, “Ku zo, mu yi tubula, mu gasa su sosai.” Suka yi amfani da tubula a maimakon duwatsu, kwalta kuma a maimakon laka.
4 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.”
Sa’an nan suka ce, “Ku zo, mu gina wa kanmu birni da hasumiyar da za tă kai har sammai, domin mu yi wa kanmu suna, don kada mu warwatsu ko’ina a doron ƙasa.”
5 The LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men built.
Sai Ubangiji ya sauko don yă ga birni da kuma hasumiyar da mutanen suke gini.
6 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.
Ubangiji ya ce, “Ga su, su jama’a ɗaya ce, su duka kuwa harshensu guda ne. Wannan kuwa masomi ne kawai na abin da za su iya yi, babu kuma abin da suka yi shirya yi da ba za su iya yi ba.
7 Come, let’s go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.”
Zo, mu sauka, mu rikitar da harshensu don kada su fahimci juna.”
8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth. They stopped building the city.
Saboda haka Ubangiji ya watsar da su daga wurin zuwa ko’ina a doron ƙasa, suka kuwa daina gina birnin.
9 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.
Shi ya sa aka kira birnin Babel, domin a can ne Ubangiji ya rikitar da harshen dukan duniya. Daga can Ubangiji ya watsar da su ko’ina a doron ƙasa.

Wannan ita ce zuriyar Tera. Tera ya haifi Abram, Nahor da Haran. Haran kuma ya haifi Lot.
28 Haran died in the land of his birth, in Ur-Kasdim, while his father Terah was still alive.
Yayinda mahaifinsa Tera yana da rai, Haran ya rasu a Ur ta Kaldiyawa, a ƙasar haihuwarsa.
29 Abram and Nahor married wives. The name of Abram’s wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor’s wife was Milcah, the daughter of Haran, who was also the father of Iscah.
Abram da Nahor suka yi aure. Sunan matar Abram, Saira ne, sunan matar Nahor kuwa Milka; ita’yar Haran ce, mahaifin Milka da Iska.
30 Sarai was barren. She had no child.
Saira kuwa bakararriya ce, ba ta da yara.
31 Terah took Abram his son, Lot the son of Haran, his son’s son, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram’s wife. They went from Ur-Kasdim, to go into the land of Canaan. They came to Haran and lived there.
Tera ya ɗauki ɗansa Abraham, jikansa Lot ɗan Haran, da surukarsa Saira, matar Abram, tare kuwa suka bar Ur ta Kaldiyawa, don su tafi Kan’ana. Amma sa’ad da suka zo Haran sai suka zauna a can.
32 The days of Terah were two hundred five years. Terah died in Haran.
Tera yi shekaru 205, ya kuma mutu a Haran.
