Genesis 11:8 (NET) New English Translation

1 The whole earth had a common language and a common vocabulary.
2 When the people moved eastward, they found a plain in Shinar and settled there.
3 Then they said to one another, "Come, let's make bricks and bake them thoroughly." (They had brick instead of stone and tar instead of mortar.)
4 Then they said, "Come, let's build ourselves a city and a tower with its top in the heavens so that we may make a name for ourselves. Otherwise we will be scattered across the face of the entire earth."
5 But the LORD came down to see the city and the tower that the people had started building.
6 And the LORD said, "If as one people all sharing a common language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be beyond them.
7 Come, let's go down and confuse their language so they won't be able to understand each other."
8 So the LORD scattered them from there across the face of the entire earth, and they stopped building the city.
9 That is why its name was called Babel— because there the LORD confused the language of the entire world, and from there the LORD scattered them across the face of the entire earth.
10 This is the account of Shem. Shem was 100 old when he became the father of Arphaxad, two years after the flood.

12 When Arphaxad had lived 35 years, he became the father of Shelah.
13 And after he became the father of Shelah, Arphaxad lived 403 years and had other sons and daughters.
14 When Shelah had lived 30 years, he became the father of Eber.
15 And after he became the father of Eber, Shelah lived 403 years and had other sons and daughters.
16 When Eber had lived 34 years, he became the father of Peleg.
17 And after he became the father of Peleg, Eber lived 430 years and had other sons and daughters.
18 When Peleg had lived 30 years, he became the father of Reu.
19 And after he became the father of Reu, Peleg lived 209 years and had other sons and daughters.
20 When Reu had lived 32 years, he became the father of Serug.
21 And after he became the father of Serug, Reu lived 207 years and had other sons and daughters.
22 When Serug had lived 30 years, he became the father of Nahor.
23 And after he became the father of Nahor, Serug lived 200 years and had other sons and daughters.
24 When Nahor had lived 29 years, he became the father of Terah.
25 And after he became the father of Terah, Nahor lived 119 years and had other sons and daughters.
26 When Terah had lived 70 years, he became the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
27 This is the account of Terah. Terah became the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran. And Haran became the father of Lot.
28 Haran died in the land of his birth, in Ur of the Chaldeans, while his father Terah was still alive.
29 And Abram and Nahor took wives for themselves. The name of Abram's wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor's wife was Milcah; she was the daughter of Haran, the father of both Milcah and Iscah.
30 But Sarai was barren; she had no children.
31 Terah took his son Abram, his grandson Lot (the son of Haran), and his daughter-in-law Sarai, his son Abram's wife, and with them he set out from Ur of the Chaldeans to go to Canaan. When they came to Haran, they settled there.
32 The lifetime of Terah was 205 years, and he died in Haran.

2 And it came to pass H1961 W-VPY3MS , as they journeyed H5265 B-VQFC-3MP from the east H6924 M-NMS , that they found H4672 W-VQY3MP a plain H1237 NFS in the land H776 B-GFS of Shinar H8152 LFS ; and they dwelt H3427 W-VQY3MP there H8033 ADV .
3 And they said H559 W-VQY3MP one H376 NMS to H413 PREP another H7453 NMS-3MS , Go to H3051 VQI2MS-3FS , let us make H3835 VQI1MP brick H3843 NMP , and burn H8313 W-VQY3FS them throughly H8316 L-NFS .

5 And the LORD H3068 EDS came down H3381 W-VQY3MS to see H7200 L-VQFC the city H5892 D-GFS and the tower H4026 D-NMS , which H834 RPRO the children H1121 of men H120 D-NMS built H1129 .
6 And the LORD H3068 EDS said H559 W-VQY3MS , Behold H2005 IJEC , the people H5971 NMS is one H259 MMS , and they have all H3605 NMS one H259 OFS language H8193 W-NFS ; and this H2088 W-PMS they begin H2490 VHFC-3MP to do H6213 L-VQFC : and now H6258 W-ADV nothing H3808 ADV will be restrained H1219 VNY3MS from H4480 them , which H834 RPRO they have imagined H2161 VQY3MP to do H6213 L-VQFC .
7 Go to H3051 VQI2MS-3FS , let us go down H3381 VNFC-3FS , and there H8033 ADV confound H1101 W-VNFA-3FS their language H8193 CFS-3MP , that H834 RPRO they may not H3808 NADV understand H8085 VQY3MP one H376 another H7453 CMS-3MS \'s speech H8193 CFS .

9 Therefore H5921 PREP is the name H8034 CMS-3FS of it called H7121 VQQ3MS Babel H894 LFS ; because H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS did there H8033 ADV confound H1101 VQQ3MS the language H8193 CFS of all H3605 NMS the earth H776 D-GFS : and from thence H8033 WM-ADV did the LORD H3068 EDS scatter them abroad H6327 VHQ3MS-3MP upon H5921 PREP the face H6440 CMP of all H3605 NMS the earth H776 D-GFS .
