Genesis 11:6-8

1599 Geneva Bible

⁶ And the Lord said, ^[a]Behold, the people is one, and they all have one language, and this they begin to do, neither can they now be stopped from whatsoever they have imagined to do.

⁷ Come on, ^[b]let us go down, and ^[c]there confound their language, that everyone perceive not another’s speech.

⁸ So the Lord scattered them from thence upon all the earth, and they left off to build the city.
