¹The whole earth was of one language and of one speech.

¹A celá zem bola jedného jazyka a jednakých slov.

²It happened, as they traveled east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they lived there.

²A stalo sa, keď sa rušali od východu, že našli rovinu v zemi Sineáre a bývali tam.

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.

³Vtedy povedali druh druhovi: Nože narobme tehiel a vypáľme ich v ohni. A tak im bola tehla miesto kameňa a zemská smola im bola miesto malty.

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.”

⁴A povedali: Nože si vystavme mesto a vežu, ktorej vrch bude sahať až do neba. A učiňme si meno, aby sme neboli rozptýlení po tvári celej zeme.

⁵Yahweh came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men built.

⁵Vtedy sostúpil Hospodin, aby videl mesto a vežu, ktoré staväli synovia človeka.

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.

⁶A Hospodin riekol: Hľa, je to jeden národ, a všetci majú jeden a ten istý jazyk, a toto je začiatkom toho, čo budú ďalej robiť; takto im teraz nebude prekazené v ničom z toho, čo si zaumienili robiť.

⁷Come, let’s go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.”

⁷Nože sostúpme a zmiatnime tam ich jazyk, aby nerozumeli druh reči svojho druha.

⁸So Yahweh scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth. They stopped building the city.

⁸A tak ich rozptýlil Hospodin odtiaľ po tvári celej zeme, a prestali staväť mesto.

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.

⁹Preto nazvali jeho meno Bábel, lebo tam zmiatol Hospodin jazyk celej zeme a odtiaľ ich rozptýlil Hospodin po tvári celej zeme.
