Translated from the Hebrew

Literal translation of the Hebrew text

  • 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.
