Genesis 11:7-9

7ComeH3381, let us goH3381 down, and there confound their languageH8193, that they may not understand oneH376 another’s speech. 8So Jehovah scatteredH6327 them abroad from thence upon the faceH6440 of all the earthH776: and they left off buildingH1129 the cityH5892. 9ThereforeH3651 was the nameH8034 of it calledH7121 Babel; because Jehovah did there confound the languageH8193 of all the earthH776: and from thence did Jehovah scatterH6327 them abroad upon the faceH6440 of all the earthH776.
