The Tower of Babel

1 Now the whole earth had one language and the same words. 2 And as people migrated from the east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar and settled there. 3 And they said to one another, “Come, let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly.” And they had brick for stone, and bitumen for mortar. 4 Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be dispersed over the face of the whole earth.” 5 And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of man had built. 6 And the Lord said, “Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language, and this is only the beginning of what they will do. And nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them. 7 Come, let us go down and there confuse their language, so that they may not understand one another’s speech.” 8 So the Lord dispersed them from there over the face of all the earth, and they left off building the city. 9 Therefore its name was called Babel, because there the Lord confused* the language of all the earth. And from there the Lord dispersed them over the face of all the earth.

Shem’s Descendants

10 These are the generations of Shem. When Shem was 100 years old, he fathered Arpachshad two years after the flood. 11 And Shem lived after he fathered Arpachshad 500 years and had other sons and daughters. 12 When Arpachshad had lived 35 years, he fathered Shelah. 13 And Arpachshad lived after he fathered Shelah 403 years and had other sons and daughters. 14 When Shelah had lived 30 years, he fathered Eber. 15 And Shelah lived after he fathered Eber 403 years and had other sons and daughters. 16 When Eber had lived 34 years, he fathered Peleg. 17 And Eber lived after he fathered Peleg 430 years and had other sons and daughters. 18 When Peleg had lived 30 years, he fathered Reu. 19 And Peleg lived after he fathered Reu 209 years and had other sons and daughters. 20 When Reu had lived 32 years, he fathered Serug. 21 And Reu lived after he fathered Serug 207 years and had other sons and daughters. 22 When Serug had lived 30 years, he fathered Nahor. 23 And Serug lived after he fathered Nahor 200 years and had other sons and daughters. 24 When Nahor had lived 29 years, he fathered Terah. 25 And Nahor lived after he fathered Terah 119 years and had other sons and daughters. 26 When Terah had lived 70 years, he fathered Abram, Nahor, and Haran.

Terah’s Descendants

27 Now these are the generations of Terah. Terah fathered Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran fathered Lot. 28 Haran died in the presence of his father Terah in the land of his kindred, in Ur of the Chaldeans. 29 And Abram and Nahor took wives. The name of Abram’s wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor’s wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran the father of Milcah and Iscah. 30 Now Sarai was barren; she had no child. 31 Terah took Abram his son and Lot the son of Haran, his grandson, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram’s wife, and they went forth together from Ur of the Chaldeans to go into the land of Canaan, but when they came to Haran, they settled there. 32 The days of Terah were 205 years, and Terah died in Haran.

1 وَكَانَ أَهْلُ الأَرْضِ جَمِيعاً يَتَكَلَّمُونَ أَوَّلاً بِلِسَانٍ وَاحِدٍ وَلُغَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ. 2 وَإِذِ ارْتَحَلُوا شَرْقاً وَجَدُوا سَهْلاً فِي أَرْضِ شِنْعَارَ فَاسْتَوْطَنُوا هُنَاكَ. 3 فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: «لِنَصْنَعْ طُوباً مَشْوِيًّا أَحْسَنَ شَيٍّ». فَاسْتَخْدَمُوا الطُّوبَ بَدِيلاً لِلْحِجَارَةِ بِالطُّوبِ، وِالْحُمْرَ بَدِيلاً للطِّينِ. 4 ثُمَّ قَالُوا: «لِنُشَيِّدْ لأَنْفُسِنَا مَدِينَةً وَبُرْجاً يَبْلُغُ رَأْسُهُ السَّمَاءَ، فَنُخَلِّدَ لَنَا اسْماً لِئَلّا نَتَشَتَّتَ عَلَى وَجْهِ الأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا». 5 وَنَزَلَ الرَّبُّ لِيَشْهَدَ الْمَدِينَةَ وَالْبُرْجَ اللَّذَيْنِ شَرَعَ بَنُو الْبَشَرِ فِي بِنَائِهِمَا. 6 فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ: «إِنْ كَانُوا، كَشَعْبٍ وَاحِدٍ يَنْطِقُونَ بِلُغَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ، قَدْ عَمِلُوا هَذَا مُنْذُ أَوَّلِ الأَمْرِ، فَلَنْ يَمْتَنِعَ إِذاً عَلَيْهِمْ أَيُّ شَيْءٍ عَزَمُوا عَلَى فِعْلِهِ. 7 هَيَّا نَنْزِلْ إِلَيْهِمْ وَنُبَلْبِلْ لِسَانَهُمْ، حَتَّى لَا يَفْهَمَ بَعْضُهُمْ كَلامَ بَعْضٍ». 8 وَهَكَذَا شَتَّتَهُمُ الرَّبُّ مِنْ هُنَاكَ عَلَى سَطْحِ الأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا، فَكَفُّوا عَنْ بِنَاءِ الْمَدِينَةِ، 9 لِذَلِكَ سُمِّيَتِ الْمَدِينَةُ «بَابِلَ» لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ بَلْبَلَ لِسَانَ أَهْلِ كُلِّ الأَرْضِ، وَبِالتَّالِي شَتَّتَهُمْ مِنْ هُنَاكَ فِي أَرْجَاءِ الأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا.

10 وَهَذَا سِجِلُّ مَوَالِيدِ سَامٍ. لَمَّا كَانَ سَامٌ ابْنَ مِئَةِ سَنَةٍ وَلَدَ أَرْفَكْشَادَ بَعْدَ الطُّوفَانِ بِسَنَتَيْنِ. 11 وَعَاشَ سَامٌ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ خَمْسَ مِئَةِ سَنَةٍ، وُلِدَ لَهُ فِيهَا بَنُونَ وَبَنَاتٌ. 12 وَعِنْدَمَا بَلَغَ أَرْفَكْشَادُ خَمْساً وَثَلاثِينَ سَنَةً مِنَ الْعُمْرِ وَلَدَ شَالَحَ. 13 وَعَاشَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَرْبَعَ مِئَةٍ وَثَلاثَ سَنَوَاتٍ، وُلِدَ لَهُ فِيهَا بَنُونَ وَبَنَاتٌ. 14 وَكَانَ شَالَحُ فِي الثَّلاثِينَ مِنْ عُمْرِهِ عِنْدَمَا وَلَدَ عَابِرَ. 15 وَعَاشَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَرْبَعَ مِئَةٍ وَثَلاثَ سَنَوَاتٍ، وُلِدَ لَهُ فِيهَا بَنُونَ وَبَنَاتٌ. 16 وَكَانَ عُمْرُ عَابِرَ أَرْبَعاً وَثَلاثِينَ سَنَةً عِنْدَمَا وَلَدَ فَالَجَ. 17 وَعَاشَ عَابِرُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَرْبَعَ مِئَةٍ وَثَلاثِينَ سَنَةً، وُلِدَ لَهُ فِيهَا بَنُونَ وَبَنَاتٌ. 18 وَكَانَ عُمْرُ فَالَجَ ثَلاثِينَ سَنَةً عِنْدَمَا وَلَدَ رَعُوَ. 19 وَعَاشَ فَالَجُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ مِئَتَيْنِ وَتِسْعَ سِنِينَ وُلِدَ لَهُ فِيهَا بَنُونَ وَبَنَاتٌ. 20 وَكَانَ عُمْرُ رَعُوَ اثْنَتَيْنِ وَثَلاثِينَ سَنَةً عِنْدَمَا وَلَدَ سَرُوجَ. 21 وَعَاشَ رَعُو بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ مِئَتَيْنِ وَسَبْعَ سِنِينَ، وُلِدَ لَهُ فِيهَا بَنُونَ وَبَنَاتٌ. 22 وَكَانَ عُمْرُ سَرُوجَ ثَلاثِينَ سَنَةً عِنْدَمَا وَلَدَ نَاحُورَ. 23 وَعَاشَ سَرُوجُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ مِئَتَيْ سَنَةٍ، وُلِدَ لَهُ فِيهَا بَنُونَ وَبَنَاتٌ. 24 وَكَانَ عُمْرُ نَاحُورَ تِسْعاً وَعِشْرِينَ سَنَةً عِنْدَمَا وَلَدَ تَارَحَ. 25 وَعَاشَ نَاحُورُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ مِئَةً وَتِسْعَ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً، وُلِدَ لَهُ فِيهَا بَنُونَ وَبَنَاتٌ. 26 وَعِنْدَمَا بَلَغَ تَارَحُ السَّبْعِينَ مِنْ عُمْرِهِ أَنْجَبَ أَبْرَامَ وَنَاحُورَ وَهَارَانَ.

27 وَهَذَا هُوَ سِجِلُّ مَوَالِيدِ تَارَحَ: وَلَدَ تَارَحُ أَبْرَامَ وَنَاحُورَ وَهَارَانَ. وَوَلَدَ هَارَانُ لُوطاً. 28 وَمَاتَ هَارَانُ قَبْلَ تَارَحَ أَبِيهِ فِي أَرْضِ مَوْلِدِهِ فِي أُورِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ. 29 وَتَزَوَّجَ كُلٌّ مِنْ أَبْرَامَ وَنَاحُورَ. وَكَانَ اسْمُ زَوْجَةِ أَبْرَامَ سَارَايَ، وَاسْمُ زَوْجَةِ نَاحُورَ مِلْكَةَ بِنْتَ هَارَانَ الَّذِي أَنْجَبَ مِلْكَةَ وَيِسْكَةَ. 30 وَكَانَتْ سَارَايُ عَاقِراً لَيْسَ لَهَا وَلَدٌ. 31 وَأَخَذَ تَارَحُ ابْنَهُ أَبْرَامَ وَحَفِيدَهُ لُوطاً بْنَ هَارَانَ، وَسَارَايَ كَنَّتَهُ زَوْجَةَ ابْنِهِ أَبْرَامَ، وَارْتَحَلَ بِهِمْ مِنْ أُورِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ لِيَذْهَبُوا إِلَى أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ. 32 لَكِنَّهُمْ وَصَلُوا إِلَى حَارَانَ وَاسْتَقَرُّوا فِيهَا. وَهُنَاكَ مَاتَ تَارَحُ وَلَهُ مِنَ الْعُمْرِ مِئَتَانِ وَخَمْسُ سِنِينَ.
