The Tower of Babel 11 Now the whole world had one language and a common speech. 2 As people moved eastward‚[a]they found a plain in Shinar[b] and settled there. 3 They said to each other‚ “Come‚ let’s make bricks and bake them thoroughly.” They used brick instead of stone‚ and tar for mortar. 4 Then they said‚ “Come‚ let us build ourselves a city‚ with a tower that reaches to the heavens‚ so that we may make a name for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered over the face of the whole earth.”
