创世记 11

那时，天下人的口音、言语都是一样。

nà shí ， tiān xià rén de kǒu yīn 、 yán yǔ dōu shì yí yàng 。

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

他们往东边迁移的时候，在示拿地遇见一片平原，就住在那里。

tā men wǎng dōng biān qiān yí de shí hòu ， zài shì ná dì yù jiàn yí piàn píng yuán ， jiù zhù zài nà lǐ 。

As they traveled east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they lived there.

他们彼此商量说：「来吧！我们要做砖，把砖烧透了。」他们就拿砖当石头，又拿石漆当灰泥。

tā men bǐ cǐ shāng liáng shuō ：「 lái ba ！ wǒ men yào zuò zhuān ， bǎ zhuān shāo tòu le 。」 tā men jiù ná zhuān dāng shí tou ， yòu ná shí qī dāng huī ní 。

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.

他们说：「来吧！我们要建造一座城和一座塔，塔顶通天，为要传扬我们的名，免得我们分散在全地上。」

tā men shuō ：「 lái ba ！ wǒ men yào jiàn zào yí zuò chéng hé yí zuò tǎ ， tǎ dǐng tōng tiān ， wèi yào chuán yáng wǒ men de míng ， miǎn de wǒ men fēn sàn zài quán dì shàng 。」

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.”

耶和华降临，要看看世人所建造的城和塔。

yē hé huá jiàng lín ， yào kàn kàn shì rén suǒ jiàn zào de chéng hé tǎ 。

The LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men built.

耶和华说：「看哪，他们成为一样的人民，都是一样的言语，如今既做起这事来，以后他们所要做的事就没有不成就的了。

yē hé huá shuō ：「 kàn nǎ ， tā men chéng wéi yí yàng de rén mín ， dōu shì yí yàng de yán yǔ ， rú jīn jì zuò qǐ zhè shì lái ， yǐ hòu tā men suǒ yào zuò de shì jiù méi yǒu bù chéng jiù de le 。

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.

我们下去，在那里变乱他们的口音，使他们的言语彼此不通。」

wǒ men xià qù ， zài nà lǐ biàn luàn tā men de kǒu yīn ， shǐ tā men de yán yǔ bǐ cǐ bù tōng 。」

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

于是耶和华使他们从那里分散在全地上；他们就停工，不造那城了。

yú shì yē hé huá shǐ tā men cóng nà lǐ fēn sàn zài quán dì shàng ； tā men jiù tíng gōng ， bú zào nà chéng le 。

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

因为耶和华在那里变乱天下人的言语，使众人分散在全地上，所以那城名叫巴别 。

yīn wèi yē hé huá zài nà lǐ biàn luàn tiān xià rén de yán yǔ ， shǐ zhòng rén fēn sàn zài quán dì shàng ， suǒ yǐ nà chéng míng jiào bā bié 。

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.
