¹And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.

¹Dhulka oo dhammuna wuxuu ahaa isku af iyo isku hadal keliya.

²And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there.

²Waxaana dhacday markay xagga bari u sii socdaaleen inay waddankii Shincaar meel bannaan ka heleen; oo halkaas ayay degeen.

³And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for mortar.

³Oo waxay isku yidhaahdeen, Ina keena, aynu leben samaysannee, oo aynu aad u dubnee. Oo waxay dhagaxa meeshiisa u haysteen leben, nuuradda meesheedana dhoobo.

⁴And 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.

⁴Oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Ina keena, aynu magaalo dhisannee, iyo munaarad dhaladeedu samada gaadho, oo aynu magac yeelannee, waaba intaasoo aynu dhulka dushiisa oo dhan ku kala firidhnaaye.

⁵And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.

⁵Rabbiguna wuxuu u soo degay inuu arko magaaladii iyo munaaraddii ay binu-aadmigu dhisayeen.

⁶And 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.

⁶Oo Rabbigu wuxuu yidhi, Bal eega, iyagu waa isku dad keliya, oo dhammaan isku af keliya bay leeyihiin, oo waxanuna waa waxa ay bilaabayaan inay sameeyaan, oo haatan wax ka hor joogsan doona waxay damcaan inay sameeyaan ma jiraane.

⁷Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.

⁷Ina keena, aynu degnee, oo halkaas aynu afkooda iskaga qasnee, yaan midna midka kale hadalkiisa garanine.

⁸So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.

⁸Kolkaasaa Rabbigu halkaas ka kaxeeyey oo ku kala firdhiyey dhulka dushiisa oo dhan, oo dhisiddii magaaladii way joojiyeen.

⁹Therefore 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.

⁹Sidaas daraaddeed magaceedii waxaa loo bixiyey Baabel, maxaa yeelay, halkaasaa Rabbigu afkii dhulka oo dhan iskaga qasay; oo halkaasuu Rabbigu ka kaxeeyey iyagii oo ku kala firdhiyey dhulka dushiisa oo dhan.
