1The whole earth was of one language and of one speech.
1全地は一つの言葉、同じ言語を用いていた。
2As they traveled east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they lived there.
2人々が東へ移動したとき、彼らはシンアルの地に平野を見つけ、そこに住んだ。
3They said to one another, “Come, let’s make bricks, and burn them thoroughly.” They had brick for stone, and they used tar for mortar.
3彼らは互いに言った。「さあ、れんがを作り、よく焼こう。」彼らは石の代わりにれんがを使い、漆喰の代わりに瀝青を使った。
4They 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.”
4彼らは言った。「さあ、町と、頂が天に届く塔を自分たちのために建て、名を上げよう。全地の表に散らされないためだ。」
5The LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men built.
5主は、人の子らが建てた町と塔を見るために下って来られた。
6The 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.
6主は言われた。「見よ、彼らは一つの民であり、皆が一つの言語を持っている。そして、これが彼らのし始めたことである。今や、彼らが企てることで、彼らに不可能なことは何もないだろう。
7Come, let’s go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.”
7さあ、われわれは下って行き、そこで彼らの言語を混乱させ、互いの言葉を理解できないようにしよう。」
8So the LORD scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth. They stopped building the city.
8こうして主は、彼らをそこから全地の表に散らされた。彼らは町を建てるのをやめた。
9Therefore 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.
9それゆえ、その名はバベルと呼ばれた。そこで主が全地の言語を混乱させたからである。そこから、主は彼らを全地の表に散らされた。
