TKJU(i)
1 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelled there.
3 And they said to one another, "Come, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly." And they had brick for stone, and viscous mud for mortar.
4 And they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city and a tower, whose top may reach to heaven; and let us make ourselves 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 built.
6 And the LORD said, "Behold, the people are one, and they all have one language; and this is what they begin to do: And now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
7 Come, let us go down, and in that place confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech."
8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from there upon the face of all the earth: And they ceased to build the city.
9 Therefore the name of it is called Babel; because the LORD confounded the language of all the earth there: And from that place the LORD scattered them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
10 These are the generations of Shem: Shem was a hundred years old, and begat Arphaxad two years after the flood:
11 And after Shem begat Arphaxad, he lived five hundred years, and begat sons and daughters.
12 And Arphaxad lived thirty-five years, and begat Salah:
13 And after Arphaxad begat Salah, he lived four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.
14 And Salah lived thirty years, and begat Eber:
15 And after Salah begat Eber, he lived four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.
16 And Eber lived thirty-four years, and begat Peleg:
17 And after Eber begat Peleg, he lived four hundred and thirty years, and begat sons and daughters.
18 And Peleg lived thirty years, and begat Reu:
19 And after Peleg begat Reu, he lived two hundred and nine years, and begat sons and daughters.
20 And Reu lived thirty-two years, and begat Serug:
21 And after Reu begat Serug, he lived two hundred and seven years, and begat sons and daughters.
22 And Serug lived thirty years, and begat Nahor:
23 And after Serug begat Nahor, he lived two hundred years, and begat sons and daughters.
24 And Nahor lived twenty-nine years, and begat Terah:
25 And after Nahor begat Terah, he lived a hundred and nineteen years, and begat sons and daughters.
26 And Terah lived seventy years, and begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
27 Now these are the generations of Terah: Terah begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran begat Lot.
28 And Haran died before his father Terah in the land of his nativity, in Ur of the Chaldeans.
29 And Abram and Nahor took themselves wives: The name of Abram's wife was Sarai; and the name of Nahor's wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah, and the father of Iscah.
30 But Sarai was barren; she had no child.
31 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 him from Ur of the Chaldeans, to go into the land of Canaan; and they came to Haran, and dwelled there.
32 And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years: And Terah died in Haran.
