Genesis
Chapter 11
1. And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
2. And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that
they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt
there.
3. And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and
burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and
slime had they for morter.
4. And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower,
whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name,
lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole
earth.
5. And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which
the children of men builded.
6. And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have
all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing
will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to
do.
7. Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language,
that they may not understand one another's speech.
8. So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face
of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
9. Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD
did there confound the language of all the earth: and from
thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all
the earth.
