English Paraphrase 1And all of the land had one language and common words.
Paraphrase 2And when they traveled from the east, they found a field in the land of Shinar and lived there.
Paraphrase 3And they said, everyone to everyone: "Come! Let us make bricks and burn them completely." And brick was stone for them, and clay was mortar for them.
Paraphrase 4And they said: "Come! Let us build a city and a tower and its head in the sky; and let us make a name on behalf of ourselves, lest we be scattered on the face of the whole land."
Paraphrase 5And Yahweh descended to see the city and the tower which the sons of man had built.
Paraphrase 6And Yahweh said: "Behold, one nation and one language for all of them, and this they have begun to do. And now, [it] will not be denied from them everything they plan to do.
Paraphrase 7Come! Let Us descend and let Us confuse their language here, so that they will not hear the language of everyone to everyone."
Paraphrase 8And Yahweh scattered them from there on the face of the whole land, and they ceased (ended) to build the city.
Paraphrase 9Therefore they (impersonal) called its name Babel, because there Yahweh confused the language of the whole land, and from there Yahweh scattered them on the face of the whole land.
