- And the whole earth is of one pronunciation, and of the same words,
- 2
- and it cometh to pass, in their journeying from the east, that they find a valley in the land of Shinar, and dwell there;
- 3
- and they say each one to his neighbour, `Give help, let us make bricks, and burn `them' thoroughly:' and the brick is to them for stone, and the bitumen hath been to them for mortar.

- And Jehovah cometh down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men have builded;
- 6
- and Jehovah saith, `Lo, the people `is' one, and one pronunciation `is' to them all, and this it hath dreamed of doing; and now, nothing is restrained from them of that which they have purposed to do.
- 7
- Give help, let us go down, and mingle there their pronunciation, so that a man doth not understand the pronunciation of his companion.'
- 8
- And Jehovah doth scatter them from thence over the face of all the earth, and they cease to build the city;
- 9
- therefore hath `one' called its name Babel, for there hath Jehovah mingled the pronunciation of all the earth, and from thence hath Jehovah scattered them over the face of all the earth.
