Genesis 11:1-9

1Now allH3605 the earthH776 1usedH1961 the sameH259 languageH8193 and 2the sameH259 wordsH1697. 2And it cameH1961 aboutH1961, as they journeyedH5265 3eastH6924, that they foundH4672 a plainH1237 in the landH776 4of ShinarH8152 and 5settledH3427 thereH8033. 3Then they saidH559 to oneH376 anotherH7453, “ComeH3051, let’s makeH3835 bricksH3835 and 6fireH8313 them thoroughlyH8316.” And they usedH1961 brickH3843 for stoneH68, and they usedH1961 7tarH2564 for mortarH2563. 4And they saidH559, “ComeH3051, let’s buildH1129 ourselves a cityH5892, and a towerH4026 whose topH7218 8will reach into heavenH8064, and let’s makeH6213 9a nameH8034 for ourselves; otherwiseH6435 we 10will be scatteredH6327 abroad overH5921 the faceH6440 of allH3605 the earthH776.” 5Now 11the LordH3068 cameH3381 downH3381 to seeH7200 the cityH5892 and the towerH4026 whichH834 the 12menH120 had builtH1129. 6And the LordH3068 saidH559, “BeholdH2005, they are oneH259 peopleH5971, and they allH3605 have 1314the sameH259 languageH8193. And thisH2088 is what they have startedH2490 to doH6213, and nowH6258 nothingH3808H3605 whichH834 they planH2161 to doH6213 will beH1219 15impossibleH1219 for them. 7ComeH3051, 1617let Us goH3381 downH3381 and thereH8033 18confuseH1101 their 19languageH8193, soH834 thatH834 they will not understandH8085 oneH376 another’sH7453 20speechH8193.” 8So the LordH3068 21scatteredH6327 them abroad from thereH8033 overH5921 the faceH6440 of allH3605 the earthH776; and they stoppedH2308 buildingH1129 the cityH5892. 9ThereforeH5921H3651 it was namedH7121H8034 2223BabelH894, becauseH3588 thereH8033 the LordH3068 confusedH1101 the 24languageH8193 of allH3605 the earthH776; and from thereH8033 the LordH3068 scatteredH6327 them abroad overH5921 the faceH6440 of allH3605 the earthH776.
