Genesis 11
1 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one kind of words.
Then the whole earth was of one language and one speache.
2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed toward the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they dwelt there.
And as they went from the East, they found a plaine in the land of Shinar, and there they abode.
3 And they said to one another, Go to, let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly. And thus the brick served them for stone, and slime served them for mortar.
And they said one to another, Come, let vs make bricke, and burne it in the fire. So they had bricke for stone, and slime had they in steade of morter.
4 And they said, Go to, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower, the top of which may reach unto heaven; and let us make ourselves a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
Also they said, Goe to, let vs builde vs a citie and a towre, whose top may reache vnto the heauen, that we may get vs a name, lest we be scattered vpon the whole earth.
5 And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of man were building.
But the Lord came downe, to see the citie and towre, which the sonnes of men builded.
6 And the Lord said, Behold, it is one people, and they have all one language, and this is the first thing they undertake to do; and now shall they not be restrained in all which they have imagined to do?
And the Lord said, Beholde, the people is one, and they all haue one language, and this they begin to doe, neither can they now be stopped from whatsoeuer they haue imagined to do.
7 Go to, let us go down, and confound there their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.
Come on, let vs goe downe, and there confound their language, that euery one perceiue not anothers speache.
8 So the Lord scattered them abroad from there over the face of all the earth; and they left off to build the city.
So ye Lord scattered them from thence vpon all the earth, and they left off to build the citie.
9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel, because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth; and from there did the Lord scatter them abroad over the face of all the earth.
Therefore the name of it was called Babel, because the Lord did there confounde the language of all the earth: from thence then did the Lord scatter them vpon all the earth.
