Babel Text - from Genesis 11, 1-9

1.

And all the earth had one language.

We al erf voz an po.

2.

And it happened at the time they journeyed to the east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar and dwelt there

We xefi hãpoz, amte uli joz u ist, uli findoz plin e nax Xinar we uli xoz de.

3.

And one said to another, "Come we will make bricks and bake them". And they had bricks as stone and clay for mortar.

We pe poz u pe, "Ask, wi makuz briki we baikuz fi".  We uli voz briki søb ston we kle søb mort.

4.

And they said "Come, we will build a city and a tower whose top will reach to heaven in order to give ourselves a name in case we become scattered abroad over the face of the earth".

We uli poz, "Ask, wi bilduz vilem we hetbildo ovfi top hetuz u hev, pør namiz wi ginstas wi ubxauz osnax ros sur erfa".

5.

But God descended to see the city and the tower that people had built

Opre God pujoz siz vilem we hetbildo fi pe ozbildoz.

6.

God said "If as one people, speaking the same language, they have begun to do this, then nothing that they wish will be impossible for them

God poz "If, biz pei aga, piez po ama, uli ezgidioz ce, øka zafi fi uli wixuz buz oppos ad uli."

7.

Let us go down and confuse their language so that they will not understand each other

Lepujez wi we fuxuz po ov uli pør uli netejuz icsu.

8.

So God scattered them from there over the face of the Earth and they stopped building the city

Øka God xaoz uli o de ros sur erfa we uli sesbildoz vilem.

9.

That is why it was named Babel, because there God confused the language of all Earth.  From there God scattered them over the face of the whole Earth

Fi bez re ol adnamoz Babel, re de God fuxoz po ov al erf. O de God xaoz uli ros sur al erfa.

The Lords Prayer

Our Father in Heaven,

Paril ovmi in hev,

Your kingdom come,

rulnax ovyu hejez,

Your will be done, on earth

as it is in heaven.

wix ovyu addez e erf

am e hev.

Give us this day our daily bread,

Ezdi ugez bred dia u mi

And forgive us our trespasses

we fovez krãm ovmi

As we forgive those

who trespass against us.

am mi fovez pe

fi krãmiz u mi.

lead us not into temptation,

Nelidez mi u tivuc,

But deliver us from evil.

opkøfa safez mi o vol.

For yours is the Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory, forever.

Re ovyu bez rulnax,

 par we honid alte.

Amen.

Fi ubuz
