Genesis 11:4-9 And they say, Give, we build us a city and a tower whose top is to the heavens; and we work us a name, lest we be scattered abroad on the face of the whole earth.

ECB⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴ And they say, Give, we build us a city and a tower whose top is to the heavens; and we work us a name, lest we be scattered abroad on the face of the whole earth. ⁵ And Yah Veh descends to see the city and the tower the sons of humanity build: ⁶ and Yah Veh says, Behold, the people is one with one lip to all; and they begin to work this: and now naught is clipped from them, of which they intrigue to work. ⁷ Give, we descend and mix up their lip, that man not hear the lip of his friend. ⁸ And from there, Yah Veh scatters them abroad on the face of all the earth: and they cease to build the city. ⁹ So the name thereof is called Babel; because there Yah Veh mixes up the lip of all the earth: and from there Yah Veh scatters them abroad on the face of all the earth.
