*1. And.was all earth of.language one and.of.speech one.
*2. And.it.was as.they.traveled from.east, they.found level.valley in.land.of Shinar, and they.lived.there.
*3. And.said each.one to.his.neighbor, "Come, let.us.make bricks and.burn (them) thoroughly." And.was to.them the.brick for.stone, and.the.asphalt it.was to.them for.mortar.
*4. And.they.said, "Come, let.us.build.for.ourselves city and tower with.its.top in.the.heavens, and.make for.ourselves name, lest.we.be.scattered on.face.of all.the.earth.
*5. And.came.down JHWH to.see the.city and.the.tower which had.built sons.of Adam.
*6. And.said JHWH, "See, people one and language one to all them and this they.are.beginning to.do. And.now not will.be.restrained from them all which they.have.imagined to.do.
*7. Come, let.us.go and.mix.up there their.language so that not they can understand one language their neighbor's.
*8. And scattered JHWH them from there over.the.face.of all.the.earth, and they.ceased from.building the.city.
*9. Therefore was.called its.name Babel because there mixed.up JHWH speech.of all.the.earth and.from. there scattered.them.abroad JHWH on.face.of all.the.earth.
