THE TOWER OF BABEL
Genesis Chapter 11
1The whole earth spoke one language.So the people to avoid
being scattered abroad, wanted to make a city with a tall
tower reaching up to heaven. When the LORD saw what
they were building, He said that these people with a common
language, nothing will keep them from doing anything they
imagine, so let us go down and confound their language
so that they no longer understand each other.
Then the Lord scattered them abroad and they stopped
building the city.
9 The place was called BABEL because that is where
the Lord stopped man from their plans and made them
all speak different languages.
