| English Paraphrase 1 | Now the entire world had one language and common spech. |
|---|
| Paraphrase 2 | While they were moving in an easterly manner they found a plain in Shinar and settled there. |
|---|
| Paraphrase 3 | "Let's make bricks and bake them well," they said to eachother. They used brick instead of stone and tar for mortar. |
|---|
| Paraphrase 4 | "Come, let's build a city with a tower that touches the sky so that we can build ourselves up and we won't be scattered over the face of the earth." they said. |
|---|
| Paraphrase 5 | But the Lord came down to see the city and the tower they were building. |
|---|
| Paraphrase 6 | If their people, speaking the same language, have begun doing this no act that is impossible for them will exist. |
|---|
| Paraphrase 7 | Come, let's go down and confuse their language, so they won't understand eachother," said the Lord. |
|---|
| Paraphrase 8 | To this end the Lord scattered them away from there around the world and they stopped building their city. |
|---|
| Paraphrase 9 | There the Lord confused the language of the entire world. The Lord scattered them from there onto the face of the entire earth. This is why we called it Babel. |
|---|
| Notes 2 | Since there seems to be a disagreement concerning the nature of the direction of motion expressed in this verse, I have chosen to suggest a simple relation to the east in the descriptive, but not to clarify how that relation is made. |
