- The whole earth was of one language and of one speech.
- It happened, as they traveled east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they lived there.
- They said one to another, "Come, let's make bricks, and burn them thoroughly." They had brick for stone, and they used tar for mortar.
- They said, "Come, let's build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top reaches to the sky, and let's make ourselves a name, lest we be scattered abroad on the surface of the whole earth."
- Yahweh came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men built.
- Yahweh said, "Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language, and this is what they begin to do. Now nothing will be withheld from them, which they intend to do.
- Come, let's go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another's speech."
- So Yahweh scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth. They stopped building the city.
- Therefore its name was called Babel, because there Yahweh confused the language of all the earth. From there, Yahweh scattered them abroad on the surface of all the earth.

- Erat autem terra labii unius, et sermonum eorumdem.
- Cumque proficiscerentur de oriente, invenerunt campum in terra Senaar, et habitaverunt in eo.
- Dixitque alter ad proximum suum : Venite, faciamus lateres, et coquamus eos igni. Habueruntque lateres pro saxis, et bitumen pro cæmento :
- et dixerunt : Venite, faciamus nobis civitatem et turrim, cujus culmen pertingat ad cælum : et celebremus nomen nostrum antequam dividamur in universas terras.
- Descendit autem Dominus ut videret civitatem et turrim, quam ædificabant filii Adam,
- et dixit : Ecce, unus est populus, et unum labium omnibus : cœperuntque hoc facere, nec desistent a cogitationibus suis, donec eas opere compleant.
- Venite igitur, descendamus, et confundamus ibi linguam eorum, ut non audiat unusquisque vocem proximi sui.
- Atque ita divisit eos Dominus ex illo loco in universas terras, et cessaverunt ædificare civitatem.
- Et idcirco vocatum est nomen ejus Babel, quia ibi confusum est labium universæ terræ : et inde dispersit eos Dominus super faciem cunctarum regionum.
- Hæ sunt generationes Sem : Sem erat centum annorum quando genuit Arphaxad, biennio post diluvium.
- Vixitque Sem, postquam genuit Arphaxad, quingentis annis : et genuit filios et filias.
- Porro Arphaxad vixit triginta quinque annis, et genuit Sale.
- Vixitque Arphaxad, postquam genuit Sale, trecentis tribus annis : et genuit filios et filias.
- Sale quoque vixit triginta annis, et genuit Heber.
- Vixitque Sale, postquam genuit Heber, quadringentis tribus annis : et genuit filios et filias.
- Vixit autem Heber triginta quatuor annis, et genuit Phaleg.
- Et vixit Heber postquam genuit Phaleg, quadringentis triginta annis : et genuit filios et filias.
- Vixit quoque Phaleg triginta annis, et genuit Reu.
- Vixitque Phaleg, postquam genuit Reu, ducentis novem annis : et genuit filios et filias.
- Vixit autem Reu triginta duobus annis, et genuit Sarug.
- Vixit quoque Reu, postquam genuit Sarug, ducentis septem annis : et genuit filios et filias.
- Vixit vero Sarug triginta annis, et genuit Nachor.
- Vixitque Sarug, postquam genuit Nachor, ducentis annis : et genuit filios et filias.
- Vixit autem Nachor viginti novem annis, et genuit Thare.
- Vixitque Nachor, postquam genuit Thare, centum decem et novem annis : et genuit filios et filias.
- Vixitque Thare septuaginta annis, et genuit Abram, et Nachor, et Aran.
- Hæ sunt autem generationes Thare : Thare genuit Abram, Nachor et Aran. Porro Aran genuit Lot.
- Mortuusque est Aran ante Thare patrem suum, in terra nativitatis suæ, in Ur Chaldæorum.
- Duxerunt autem Abram et Nachor uxores : nomen uxoris Abram, Sarai : et nomen uxoris Nachor, Melcha filia Aran, patris Melchæ, et patris Jeschæ.
- Erat autem Sarai sterilis, nec habebat liberos.
- Tulit itaque Thare Abram filium suum, et Lot filium Aran, filium filii sui, et Sarai nurum suam, uxorem Abram filii sui, et eduxit eos de Ur Chaldæorum, ut irent in terram Chanaan : veneruntque usque Haran, et habitaverunt ibi.
- Et facti sunt dies Thare ducentorum quinque annorum, et mortuus est in Haran.

- And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.
- 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.
- Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.
- So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
- 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.
