King James Version

Genesis 11:2-4

2And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there.1

3And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them throughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter.23

4And 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.
