The Tower of Babel (Genesis 11: 1-9)
Marba (Azumeina)
Ni gong nga fiyaka Babel-la
- Ei avok dei gak kur bur máma, suma yam andagad’ina pet vunazi ni tu, zla mazi d’a ded’a ni tu mi.
- Wani azi i irazi abo ma yorogona, azi fe yima djivi ma abo tam tuna yam andaga d’a Sinar-ra, azi kak kua.
- Azi de tazi ala: Ei iya, ei tchi derengelâ, ei geiziya. Derengelâ mi mbut d’igi ahuniyôna na mi mbut ni d’igi simod’a na ki lubu ma adrengâ.
- A de tazi kua ala: Ei i mini azì ma ngolâ ki gong nga ngol la fiyak ka yat do hur alonid’a, ar simiyeî mi yiya, kayam ei b’rawei woi yam andagad’a d’i.
- Kayam ndata, Ma didina mi tchugï asem kä á gol azina ki gong nga fiyak ka akulo d’a suma a nga minita.
- Ata yi máma mi dala: Gola! Azi pet ni suma tuna, azi de ni vun ma tuna mi; vama azi tinim ad’um á led’a ki tchetchembina, vama d’elezi bugol á le vama azi tin huruzi kam á luma nga d’i.
- Ar ei tchugi asei kä, ei walazi vunazi woi teteng, ar sa mi hum vun ndram mbi.
- Nata yi máma ba, Ma didina mi b’rawazi woi yam andagad’a pepet. Ni kayam ndata ba, azi ar bei min azì máma.
- Ni kayam ndata ba, a yi yi máma ala Babel, kayam ni kua ba, Ma didina mi gizeî vuna hi suma yam andagad’ina woi pet; ni kua ba, Ma didina mi b’rau suma woi yam andagad’a pet mi.
