Babel

The Tower of Babel (Genesis 11: 1-9)

Bambam

Ongeam malangka' ma'eham-eham dio Babel

1. Indo eta too anggapi sahhupa basana hupatau illaam lino.

2. Pissananna deem buda tau lao umpeä ongeam dekke tandai mata allo. Ullambi'um mesa hante pappa' illaam Sinear, iya hapa'im eta.

3-4. Ma'pattujuim naua: “Tapapiaia' mesa kota kasalle anna tapapiaia' mesa ongeam ma'eham-eham la tapakende'a' längäm langi' malangka'na anna malakia' kaissangam anna ma'mesa liu. Tapapiaa' batu tela la tapomapia lälläna, anna malai makahha'.” Iya umpapiaim batu tela sola panti' la napopampanti' mane napahandu'i napake'de'.

5. Pissananna sulem DEBATA umpetua' indo kota sola ongeam ma'eham-eham napake'de' hupatau.

6. Tappana naita DEBATA, ma'kadam naua: “Taitanna' too inde mai hupatau aka ma'mesam anna mesa basana nasuhum mala napadadi susi indee. Inde mane pa'pahandusanna hi too. Senga'um tia ke dako'um, aka iai too napattuju tä' mala tala sule lako.

7. Dadi mapia ke tapentama alla'ia' anta pasisala-salaia' basana, anna malai tä' naissam sibasa-basai.”

8. Napateemmi too DEBATA nasuhum tisembu' indo hupatau lako lino, lambi' tä'um tahhu' mengkähä umpapia mesa kota kasalle.

9. Iam too anna disangaim indo kota “Babel”, aka etam too DEBATA umpasisala-sala basana ingganna hupatau anna napasisähä'-sähä'i ussambai lao lino.
