Per total Dunya hay un basa ji un pala. Durki ete dao hoy dongu, ete ewreka pangu-geo in dexa Xinar, ji ete xorogar denloka.
The whole earth was of one language and of one speech. As they travelled east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they lived there.
Ete loga soho, “Am ata, imi am fale ituka, ji imi atex oto finfe na sen jumbi.” Ete hare ituka fe tayti fe petra, ji ete yongu taru fe tayti fe milatu.
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.
Ete loga, “Am ata, imi am kostrui tas imi xaher ji towa hu dasu kapi dadal asman, ji imi am supraidi cel xohra, fe kaso ki imi discu in alodexa per total Dunya.”
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.”
Teo infraidi cel na oko xaher ji towa hu juninsan le kostrui da.
The LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men built.
Teo loga, “Am oko, ete sen un demo, ji moyete hare un basa, ji hinto sen dento hu ete xoru na fale da. Fe nunya, nilto hu ete nyatu na fale da xa bepossahay. Am ata, imi am infraidi, ji denloka imi am disordenu etesu basa, celki ete no abil na soho aham etesu pala.”
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. Come, let’s go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.”
Fe folo, Teo disgi ete cel in alodexa xorfe denloka per total Dunya. Ete esto na kostrui xaher.
So the LORD scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth. They stopped building the city.
Fe folo, ren namegi tas to Babel, koski denloka Teo disordenu basa de total Dunya. Xorfe denloka, Teo disgi ete per total Dunya.
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.
Kido cel Xanti
