1The whole earth was of one language and of one speech.
1Kogu maailmas oli aga üks keel ja ühesugused sõnad.
2It happened, as they traveled east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they lived there.
2Ja sündis, kui nad hommiku poolt teele läksid, et nad Sinearimaal leidsid oru ja jäid sinna elama.
3They said one to another, “Come, let’s make bricks, and burn them thoroughly.” They had brick for stone, and they used tar for mortar.
3Nad ütlesid üksteisele: 'Tehkem nüüd telliskive ja põletagem neid hästi.' Siis olid telliskivid neile ehituskivideks ja maapigi oli sideaineks.
4They said, “Come, let’s build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top reaches to the sky, and let’s make ourselves a name, lest we be scattered abroad on the surface of the whole earth.”
4Ja nad ütlesid: 'Tulge, ehitagem enestele linn ja torn, mille tipp oleks taevas, ja tehkem enestele nimi, et me ei hajuks üle kogu maailma!'
5Yahweh came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men built.
5Aga Issand tuli alla vaatama linna ja torni, mida inimlapsed ehitasid.
6Yahweh said, “Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language, and this is what they begin to do. Now nothing will be withheld from them, which they intend to do.
6Ja Issand ütles: 'Vaata, rahvas on üks ja neil kõigil on üks keel, ja see on alles nende tegude algus. Nüüd ei ole neil võimatu ükski asi, mida nad kavatsevad teha!
7Come, let’s go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.”
7Mingem nüüd alla ja segagem seal nende keel, et nad üksteise keelt ei mõistaks!'
8So Yahweh scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth. They stopped building the city.
8Ja Issand pillutas nad sealt üle kogu maailma ja nad jätsid linna ehitamata.
9Therefore its name was called Babel, because there Yahweh confused the language of all the earth. From there, Yahweh scattered them abroad on the surface of all the earth.
9Seepärast pandi sellele nimeks Paabel, sest seal segas Issand ära kogu maailma keele ja sealt pillutas Issand nad üle kogu maailma.

28Aga Haaran suri enne kui ta isa Terah oma sünnimaal Kaldea Uuris.

30Sarai was barren. She had no child.
30Aga Saarai oli viljatu, temal ei olnud last.
31Terah 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 of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan. They came to Haran and lived there.

32The days of Terah were two hundred five years. Terah died in Haran.
32Ja Terahi elupäevi oli kakssada viis aastat, ja Terah suri Haaranis.
