1The whole earth was of one language and of one speech.
1 Ndunnya kulu binde, i deene fo, ciyaŋ folloŋ mo.
2It happened, as they traveled east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they lived there.
2 A go mo, waato kaŋ i goono ga dira ka koy wayna funay haray, kal i di batama fo Sinar laabo ra. I goro noodin mo.
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.
3 Kal i ne care se: «Iri ma koy ka fareeje kar k'i ton hal a ma boori gumo.» Fareejey binde te i se tondi, botogo mo te i se siminti.
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.”
4 I ne: «Iri ma koy ka kwaara fo da cinari kuuku fo mo cina, kaŋ a boŋo ga to hala beena gaa. Iri ma te iri boŋ se maa hala iri ma si say-say ndunnya kulu ra.»
5Yahweh came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men built.
5 Rabbi binde zumbu zama nga ma gallo guna, da cinaro kaŋ Adam-izey cina.
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.
6 Rabbi binde ne: «Guna i go dumi folloŋ, i deene fo mo. Hari kaŋ i sintin ka te neeya. Hay kulu si no mo kaŋ ga mongo i se haŋ kaŋ i ga miila ngey ma te ra.
7Come, let’s go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.”
7 Iri ma zumbu k'i deeney diibi, i ma si faham da care sanni.»
8So Yahweh scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth. They stopped building the city.
8 Yaadin no Rabbi n'i tunandi nd'a noodin, k'i say-say nangey kulu ndunnya ra, hal i fay da gallo cinayaŋo.
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.
9 Woodin sabbay se no i n'a maa daŋ Babila*, zama noodin no Rabbi na ndunnya kulu deeney diibi. Noodin mo no Rabbi n'i say-say ndunnya kulu ra.
