everything (c) s. dyllus
And
Terah took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran his son's son, and
Sarai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram's wife; and they went forth with
them from Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan; and they
came unto Haran, and dwelt there.
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 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.
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 men builded.
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 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they
may not understand one another's speech.
