< Genesis 11 >
1 And it was all the earth language one and words one.
2 And it was when set out they from [the] east and they found a plain in [the] land of Shinar and they dwelt there.
3 And they said each to neighbor his give! let us make bricks bricks and let us burn [them] to burning and became for them brick to stone and bitumen became for them to mortar.
4 And they said give! - let us build for ourselves a city and a tower and top its [will be] in the heavens and we may make for ourselves a name lest we should be scattered over [the] surface of all the earth.
5 And he came down Yahweh to see the city and the tower which they had built [the] children of humankind.
6 And he said Yahweh here! a people one and a language one [belongs] to all of them and this [is] beginning they to do and now not it will be withheld from them all that they will plan to do.
7 Give! let us go down and let us confuse there language their that not they will hear each [the] language of neighbor his.
8 And he scattered Yahweh them from there over [the] surface of all the earth and they ceased to build the city.
