Mose 1 11
1 Le ɣe ma ɣi me la, amegbetɔƒome blibo la doa gbe ɖeka ko.
And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
2 Esi amewo de asi agbɔsɔsɔ ɖe edzi me la, woɖo ta ɣedzeƒe lɔƒo, eye woke ɖe anyigba aɖe si sɔ la ŋu le Sinar. Eteƒe medidi kura hafi amewo sɔ gbɔ ɖe afi sia o.
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.
3 Wogblɔ na wo nɔewo be, “Miva, mina míame anyikpewo, míaƒo dzo wo nyuie.” Wowɔ anyikpe ŋu dɔ ɖe kpe ŋutɔ teƒe kple aŋɔ yibɔ ɖe anyi teƒe.
And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and bitumen had they for mortar.
4 Woyi edzi gblɔ be, “Miva, mina míatso du na mía ɖokui, eye míawɔ gbetakpɔxɔ kɔkɔ aɖe wòayi aɖatɔ dziƒo, be míaƒe ŋkɔ nade du ne míagakaka ɖe anyigba katã dzi o.”
And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
5 Ke esi Yehowa va kpɔ dua kple mɔ si tum amegbetɔviwo nɔ la,
And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men built.
6 egblɔ be, “Ne woate ŋu awɔ nu siawo katã fifia, esi wònye azɔ koe wodze sii be gbe ɖeka gblɔm yewole, eye dukɔ ɖeka yewonye la, mibu nu si woava wɔ emegbe la ŋu kpɔ! Naneke meli si woado kpo wɔwɔ o.
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 restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
7 Mina míaɖi ayi anyigba dzi, eye míatɔtɔ woƒe gbe ale be womagase wo nɔewo gɔme o!”
Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.
8 Ale Yehowa ka wo katã hlẽ ɖe anyigba blibo la dzi. Ale du la tsotso nu tso.
So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
9 Eya ta wona ŋkɔ du ma be Babel si gɔmee nye, “Tɔtɔ,” elabena afi ma Yehowa tɔtɔ gbe na amewo le, eye wokaka ɖe afi sia afi le anyigba blibo la dzi.
Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.

27 Tera ƒe dzidzimeviwo ŋutinya enye si. Tera dzi Abram, Nahor kple Haran; eye Haran dzi Lot.

28 Ke Haran ku kaba le anyigba si dzi wodzii ɖo la dzi si nye Ur le Kaldea le esime fofoa Tera ganɔ agbe ko.
And Haran died before his father Terah in the land of his nativity, in Ur of the Chaldees.
29 Abram ɖe fofoa ƒe vi Sarai le esime nɔvia Nahor ɖe Haran si ku la ƒe vi, Milka. Nɔviŋutsu si nɔ Milka sie nye Yiska.
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.
30 Ke Sarai medzi vi aɖeke o.
But Sarai was barren; she had no child.
31 Tera kplɔ via Abram, eƒe tɔgbuiyɔvi Lot, ame si nye Haran ƒe vi la kple via Abram srɔ̃, Sarai, eye wodzo le Ur le Kaldea be yewoayi Kanaanyigba dzi. Ke wotɔ, eye wotso kɔƒe ɖe Haran.
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 unto Haran, and dwelt there.
32 Tera ku le Haran esi wòxɔ ƒe alafa eve kple atɔ̃.
And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years: and Terah died in Haran.
