The Tower of Babel
1 Now the whole earth had one language and one1 speech.
2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land aof Shinar, and they dwelt there.
3 Then they said to one another, “Come, let us make bricks and1 bake them thoroughly.” They had brick for stone, and they had asphalt for mortar.
4 And they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower awhose top is in the heavens; let us make a bname for ourselves, lest we cbe scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth.”
5 aBut the Lord came down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men had built.
