UGenesise 11
UMbhoshongo waseBabele
1Umhlaba wonke wawululimi lunye nezwi linye.
2Kwathi ekuhambeni kwabo besuka empumalanga bafumana ithafa ezweni laseShineyari; bahlala khona.
3Base bethi omunye komunye: “Hambani, senze izitini, sizishise.” Izitini zaba ngamatshe, nodaka endaweni yobumba.
4Bathi: “Hambani, sizakhele umuzi nombhoshongo osiqongo sawo singafika ezulwini; masizenzele igama, funa sihlakazeke emhlabeni wonke.
5UJehova wehla ukuze abone umuzi nombhoshongo abantwana babantu ababewakhile.
6Futhi iNkosi yathi: Bheka, abantu bamunye, futhi bonke banolimi olulodwa; futhi lokhu baqala ukukwenza, futhi manje akukho lutho oluyofihlwa kubo ababecabanga ukukwenza.
7Ake sehle lapho, siphambanise ulimi lwabo, ukuze bangezwani inkulumo yomunye.
8UJehova wayesebahlakazela emhlabeni wonke besuka lapho, bayeka ukwakha umuzi.
9Ngalokho igama lawo lathiwa iBabele; ngoba lapho uJehova wasanganisa ulimi lomhlaba wonke, futhi kusukela lapho uJehova wabahlakazela emhlabeni wonke.
10Lezi ziyizizukulwane zikaShemu: UShemi wayeneminyaka eyikhulu ubudala, noyise ka-Arpakishade iminyaka emibili ngemva kukazamcolo.
11Emva kokuzalwa kuka-Arpakishadi uShemi wahamba iminyaka engamakhulu amahlanu, wazala amadodana namadodakazi.

15UShela wahlala emveni kokuzala kukaHebhere iminyaka emakhulu mane nantathu, wazala oonyana neentombi.
16UHebhere wahamba iminyaka engamashumi amathathu nane, wazala uPhelege.
17Emva kokuzalwa kukaPhelege uHebhere waphila iminyaka engamakhulu amane namashumi amathathu, wazala amadodana namadodakazi.
18UPelege wahamba iminyaka engamashumi amathathu, wazala uRehu.
19Emva kokuzalwa kukaRehu uPelege waphila iminyaka engamakhulu amabili nesishiyagalolunye, wazala amadodana namadodakazi.
20URehu wahamba iminyaka engamashumi amathathu nambili, wazala uSerugi.
21Emva kokuzalwa kukaSerugi uRehu wahamba iminyaka engamakhulu amabili nesikhombisa, wazala amadodana namadodakazi.

24UNahori wahamba iminyaka engamashumi amabili nesishiyagalolunye, wazala uThera.
25Emva kokuzalwa kukaThera uNahori wahamba iminyaka eyikhulu neshumi nesishiyagalolunye, wazala amadodana namadodakazi.
26UThera wahamba iminyaka engamashumi ayisikhombisa, wazala u-Abrama, noNahori, noHarana.
27Lezi ziyizizukulwane zikaTera: uTera wazala u-Abrama, noNahori, noHarana; uHarana wazala uLoti.
28UHarana wafa ngaphambi kukayise uTera, ezweni lokuzalwa kwakhe, e-Uri yamaKaledi.
29O-Abrama noNahori bazithathela abafazi; igama lomka-Abrama lalinguSarayi; igama lomkaNahori lalinguMilka, indodakazi kaHarana, uyise kaMilka, noyise kaIska.
30Kepha uSarayi wayeyinyumba; wayengenangane.
31UThera wathatha u-Abrama indodana yakhe, noLoti, indodana kaHarana, indodana yendodana yakhe, noSarayi umalokazana wakhe, umka-Abrama indodana yakhe; basuka kanye nabo e-Uri lamaKaledi ukuya ezweni laseKhanani; bafika eHarana, bahlala khona.
32Imihla kaTera yaba yiminyaka emakhulu mabini anamihlanu; wafa uTera eHarana.
