Genesis 11

erat autem terra labii unius et sermonum eorundem

And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.

cumque proficiscerentur de oriente invenerunt campum in terra Sennaar et habitaverunt in eo

And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there.

dixitque alter ad proximum suum venite faciamus lateres et coquamus eos igni habueruntque lateres pro saxis et bitumen pro cemento

And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them throughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter.

et dixerunt venite faciamus nobis civitatem et turrem cuius culmen pertingat ad caelum et celebremus nomen nostrum antequam dividamur in universas terras

And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.

descendit autem Dominus ut videret civitatem et turrem quam aedificabant filii Adam

And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.

et dixit ecce unus est populus et unum labium omnibus coeperuntque hoc facere nec desistent a cogitationibus suis donec eas opere conpleant

And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.

venite igitur descendamus et confundamus ibi linguam eorum ut non audiat unusquisque vocem proximi sui

Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.

atque ita divisit eos Dominus ex illo loco in universas terras et cessaverunt aedificare civitatem

So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.

et idcirco vocatum est nomen eius Babel quia ibi confusum est labium universae terrae et inde dispersit eos Dominus super faciem cunctarum regionum

Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
