Genesis 11

DOUAI-RHEIMS	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 And the earth was of one tongue, and of the same speech.	1 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
2 And when they removed from the east, they found a plain in the land of Sennaar, and dwelt in it.	2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there.
3 And each one said to his neighbour: Come, let us make brick, and bake them of stones, and slime instead of mortar.	3 And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them throughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter.
4 And they said: Come, let us make a city and a tower, the top whereof may reach to heaven: and let us make our name famous before we be scattered abroad into all lands.	4 And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
5 And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of Adam were building.	5 And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.
6 And he said: Behold, it is one people, and all have one tongue: and they have begun to do this, neither will they leave off from their designs, till they accomplish them in deed.	6 And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
7 Come ye, therefore, let us go down, and there may not understand one another's speech.	7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.
8 And so the Lord scattered them from that place into all lands, and they ceased to build the city.	8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
9 And therefore the name thereof was called Babel, because there the language of the whole earth was confounded: and from thence the Lord scattered them abroad upon the face of all countries.	9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
