GEN 11:1–9, engwebp
¹The whole earth was of one language and of one speech.
²As they traveled east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they lived there.
³They said to one another, “Come, let’s make bricks, and burn them thoroughly.” They had brick for stone, and they used tar for mortar.
⁴They said, “Come, let’s build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top reaches to the sky, and let’s make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad on the surface of the whole earth.”
⁵The LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men built.
⁶The LORD said, “Behold, they are one people, and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do. Now nothing will be withheld from them, which they intend to do.
⁷Come, let’s go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.”
⁸So the LORD scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth. They stopped building the city.
⁹Therefore its name was called Babel, because there the LORD confused the language of all the earth. From there, the LORD scattered them abroad on the surface of all the earth.
