9. The Tower of Babel (Genesis 11:1~9)

11:1. And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
11:2. 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.
11:3. And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for mortar.
11:4. 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.
11:5. And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.
11:6. 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.
11:7. Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.
11:8. So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
11:9. 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.
