Ang Tore sa Babel
11 Kaniadto, usa lang ang pinulongan sa tanang mga tawo sa tibuok kalibotan. 2 Sa ilang pagbalhin-balhin gikan sa sidlakan, nakaabot sila sa usa ka patag nga dapit sa Shinar, ug didto sila namuyo. 3-4 Unya, miingon ang mga tawo, “Magtukod kita ug usa ka siyudad nga may tore nga sangko sa langit, aron mahimo kitang bantogan ug aron dili kita magkatibulaag sa tibuok kalibotan.” Busa nagabuhat sila ug mga tisa,[a] ug gipagba[b] nila kini ug maayo aron mogahi gayod. Tisa ang ilang gigamit imbis bato. Ug aspalto ang ilang gigamit ingon nga semento.
5 Unya, gitan-aw[c] sa Ginoo ang pagtukod sa siyudad ug sa tore sa mga tawo. 6 Miingon siya, “Kining mga tawhana nagakahiusa ug usa ra ang ilang pinulongan. Ug kining ilang ginabuhat sinugdanan pa lang sa ilang pagabuhaton. Sa dili madugay, mahimo na nila ang tanan nga gusto nilang buhaton. 7 Busa dali, manaog kita ug libogon nato sila pinaagi sa paghatag kanilag lain-lain nga pinulongan aron dili sila magkasinabtanay.” 8 Busa gipatibulaag sila sa Ginoo sa tibuok kalibotan ug naundang ang ilang pagtukod sa siyudad. 9 Busa gitawag kining maong siyudad ug Babel[d] kay didto gilibog sa Ginoo ang sinultihan sa mga tawo, ug gikan didto gipatibulaag niya sila sa tibuok kalibotan.

Ang mga Kaliwat ni Tera
27 Mao kini ang sugilanon mahitungod sa pamilya ni Tera.
Si Tera amahan nila ni Abram, Nahor, ug Haran. Si Haran mao ang amahan ni Lot. 28 Namatay si Haran didto sa Ur nga sakop sa pagdumala sa mga Kaldeanhon,[e] sa dapit mismo nga iyang natawhan. Namatay siya samtang buhi pa ang iyang amahan nga si Tera. 29 Nangasawa si Abram kang Sarai, ug si Nahor nangasawa kang Milca. Si Milca ug ang iyang igsoon nga si Isca mga anak ni Haran. 30 Si Sarai walay anak kay baog siya.
31 Mibiya si Tera sa Ur nga sakop sa pagdumala sa mga Kaldeanhon. Kauban niya ang iyang anak nga si Abram, ang iyang umagad nga si Sarai, ug ang iyang apo nga si Lot nga anak ni Haran. Paingon unta sila sa Canaan, apan pag-abot nila sa Haran nanimuyo na sila didto. 32 Ug didto namatay si Tera sa edad nga 205.[f]

The Tower of Babel
11 Now the whole world had one language(A) and a common speech. 2 As people moved eastward,[a] they found a plain in Shinar[b](B) and settled there.
3 They said to each other, “Come, let’s make bricks(C) and bake them thoroughly.” They used brick instead of stone,(D) and tar(E) for mortar. 4 Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens,(F) so that we may make a name(G) for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered(H) over the face of the whole earth.”(I)
5 But the Lord came down(J) to see the city and the tower the people were building. 6 The Lord said, “If as one people speaking the same language(K) they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them. 7 Come, let us(L) go down(M) and confuse their language so they will not understand each other.”(N)
8 So the Lord scattered them from there over all the earth,(O) and they stopped building the city. 9 That is why it was called Babel[c](P)—because there the Lord confused the language(Q) of the whole world.(R) From there the Lord scattered(S) them over the face of the whole earth.
From Shem to Abram(T)
10 This is the account(U) of Shem’s family line.

12 When Arphaxad had lived 35 years, he became the father of Shelah.(W) 13 And after he became the father of Shelah, Arphaxad lived 403 years and had other sons and daughters.[e]
14 When Shelah had lived 30 years, he became the father of Eber.(X) 15 And after he became the father of Eber, Shelah lived 403 years and had other sons and daughters.
16 When Eber had lived 34 years, he became the father of Peleg.(Y) 17 And after he became the father of Peleg, Eber lived 430 years and had other sons and daughters.
18 When Peleg had lived 30 years, he became the father of Reu.(Z) 19 And after he became the father of Reu, Peleg lived 209 years and had other sons and daughters.

24 When Nahor had lived 29 years, he became the father of Terah.(AC) 25 And after he became the father of Terah, Nahor lived 119 years and had other sons and daughters.
26 After Terah had lived 70 years, he became the father of Abram,(AD) Nahor(AE) and Haran.(AF)
Abram’s Family
27 This is the account(AG) of Terah’s family line.
Terah became the father of Abram, Nahor(AH) and Haran. And Haran became the father of Lot.(AI) 28 While his father Terah was still alive, Haran died in Ur of the Chaldeans,(AJ) in the land of his birth. 29 Abram and Nahor(AK) both married. The name of Abram’s wife was Sarai,(AL) and the name of Nahor’s wife was Milkah;(AM) she was the daughter of Haran, the father of both Milkah and Iskah. 30 Now Sarai was childless because she was not able to conceive.(AN)
31 Terah took his son Abram, his grandson Lot(AO) son of Haran, and his daughter-in-law(AP) Sarai, the wife of his son Abram, and together they set out from Ur of the Chaldeans(AQ) to go to Canaan.(AR) But when they came to Harran,(AS) they settled there.
32 Terah(AT) lived 205 years, and he died in Harran.
