Genesis 11:7-9

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁷ Come ye, therefore, let us go down, and there confound their tongue, that they may not understand one another's speech.

⁸ And so the Lord scattered them from that place into all lands, and they ceased to build the city.

⁹ And therefore the name thereof was called Babel, because there the language of the whole earth was confounded: and from thence the Lord scattered them abroad upon the face of all countries.
