創世記 11
1 當時全世界只有一種語言和一樣的話。
And all the world was of one tonge and one language.
2 當人們由東方遷移的時候，在史納爾地方找到了一塊平原，就在那裏住下了。
And as they came from the east they founde a playne in the lande of Synear and there they dwelled.
3 他們彼此說：「來，我們做磚，用火燒透。」他們遂拿磚當石，拿瀝青代灰泥。
And they sayd one to a nother: come on let us make brycke ad burne it wyth fyre. So brycke was there stone and slyme was there morter
4 然後彼此說：「來，讓我們建造一城一塔，塔頂摩天，好給我們作記念，免得我們在全地面上分散了! 」
And they sayd: Come on let vs buylde vs a cyte and a toure that the toppe may reach vnto heauen. And let vs make us a name for perauenture we shall be scatered abrode over all the erth.
5 上主遂下來，要看看世人所造的城和塔。
And the LORde came downe to see the cyte and the toure which the childern of Ada had buylded.
6 上主說：「看，他們都是一個民族，都說一樣的語言。他們如今就開始做這事；以後他們所想做的，就沒有不成功的了。
And the LORde sayd: See the people is one and haue one tonge amonge them all. And thys haue they begon to do and wyll not leaue of from all that they haue purposed to do.
7 來，我們下去，混亂他們的語言，使他們彼此語言不通。」
Come on let vs descende and myngell theire tonge even there that one vnderstonde not what a nother sayeth.
8 於是上主將他們分散到全地面，他們遂停止建造那城。
Thus ye LORde skatered them from thence vppon all the erth. And they left of to buylde the cyte.
9 為此人稱那地為「巴貝耳，」因為上主在那裏混亂了全地的語言，且從那裏將他們分散到全地面。
Wherfore the name of it is called Babell because that the LORDE there confounded the tonge of all the world. And because that the LORde from thence skatered them abrode vppon all the erth.
