1Nthawi imeneyo anthu onse a pa dziko lapansi ankayankhula chiyankhulo chimodzi ndipo mawu amene ankayankhula anali amodzi. 2Pamene anthu amapita chakummawa anapeza chigwa ku dziko la Sinara nakhazikikako.
3Tsono anawuzana kuti, “Tiyeni tiwumbe njerwa ndi kuziwotcha bwinobwino.” Tsono mʼmalo mwa miyala anagwiritsa ntchito njerwa zowotcha, ndipo mʼmalo mwa matope anagwiritsa ntchito phula. 4Kenaka anati, “Tiyeni tidzimangire mzinda wokhala ndi nsanja yoti ikafike kumwamba kuti titchuke. Kupanda kutero tibalalikana pa dziko lonse lapansi.”
5Koma Yehova anatsika kudzaona mzindawo ndi nsanja imene anthu aja ankayimanga. 6Yehova anati, “Anthuwa ndi amodzi, ndipo ali ndi chiyankhulo chimodzi. Izi akuchitazi nʼchiyambi chabe cha zomwe akufuna kukwaniritsa kuchita. 7Tiyeni titsikireko tikasokoneze chiyankhulo chawo kuti asamamvetsetsane.”
8Choncho Yehova anabalalitsa anthu aja pa dziko lonse lapansi ndipo analeka kumanga mzindawo. 9Nʼchifukwa chake mzindawo unatchedwa Babeli, popeza Yehova anasokoneza chiyankhulo cha anthu onse. Powachotsa kumeneko, Yehova anawabalalitsira pa dziko lonse lapansi.
