Modern English
1A. |
Now the whole world had one language and a common speech. |
2A. |
As men moved eastward, they found a plain in Shinar
and settled there. |
3A. |
They said to each other, "Come, let's make bricks
and bake them thoroughly." They used brick instead of stone,
and tar for mortar. |
4A. |
Then they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a
city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make
a name for ourselves and not be scattered over the face of the whole
earth." |
5A. |
But the Lord camedown to see the city and the tower
that the men were building. |
6A. |
The Lord said, "If as one people speaking the same
language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do
will be impossible for them. |
7A. |
Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they
will not understand each other." |
8A. |
So the Lord scattered them from there over all the earth,
and they stopped building the city. |
9A. |
That is why it was called Babel -- because there the
Lord confused the language of the whole world. From there the Lord
scattered them over the face of the whole earth. |
