Then they said one to another, "Come, let us make bricks and thoroughly bake them." So they had bricks for stone and asphalt for mortar. And they said, "Come, let us build us a city, and a tower whose top will touch the heavens, and thus make a landmark, that we may not be scattered over all the earth."
But when the LORD came down to see the city and the tower men had built, he said, "See, they are one people and all have one language. This is but the beginning, and now nothing which they plan to do will seem too difficult for them. Come, let us go down and confuse their language, that they may not understand one another."
So the LORD scattered them from there over all the earth; and they stopped building the city. Therefore they named it Babel, which means Confusion, for there the LORD confused the language of all the people on the earth and scattered them over the whole world.
