The Babel Text

A Modern Language Translation into the Pilovese language based on the Masoretic Text.

 

1Touta la tira pralava la mecima lengua coum las mecimas pravlas. 2Quand elhis viategsavan di li est, elhis truvavan una planha en Sinar i elhis ie avetavan.

 

3Quisun dicia a li alir: “Vioum, vasoum das latrimes i las croum.” Elhis avan das latrimes di idificar i li bitoumni eri li cimint.

 

4I elhis dician: “Vioum! Idificoum nou una citat i una toure coum li coumhi ni cil. Vasoum nou un noumhi avni nou ne despirdeoum souvir la tira.”

 

5Li Itirnal decindia di vir la citat i la toure que lis vilhis di Adam idificavan. 6Elh dicia: “Li pouvoul in une i elhis pralan la mecima lengua. Vei que elhis cominhan di vacir! 7Vioum! Covoundoum lhour lengua avni elhis ne mags entinen.”

 

8Li Itirnal lhour die despirdia i elhis cesavan di idificar la citat. 9Aoura li nomhi dia citat e Babel pirque li Itirnal covoundi lhour lengua i elh lhour desperdi souvir la tira.

 

1All the world spoke the same language with the same words. 2When they were travelling from the East, they found a plain in Shinar and they settled there.

 

3Each one said to the other, "Come, let us make bricks and fire them." They (then) had bricks for construction and bitumen was the mortar.

 

4And they said, "Come, let us build (for) ourselves a city and a tower with the top in heaven. Let us make (for) ourselves a name so that we will not be scattered over the Earth.

 

5The Lord came down to see the city and the tower that the sones of Adam were building. 6He said, "The people are united and they (all) speak the same language. Look at what they have begun to do! 7Come! Let us confuse their language so that they will no longer understand (each other)."

 

8The Lord scattered them from there and they ceased building the city. 9The city's name is now Babel because the Lord confused their language and scattered them over the Earth.
