Gen 11:1-9
Genesis 11:1–9 (NKJV)
1 EN die hele aarde het dieselfde taal gehad en een en dieselfde woorde.
2 En toe hulle wegtrek na die ooste, vind hulle ’n laagte in die land Sínear; en daar het hulle gaan woon.
3 Daarop sê hulle vir mekaar: Kom laat ons stene vorm en dit goed brand. Hulle gebruik toe die bakstene vir bousteen en die lymgrond vir klei.
4 En hulle sê: Kom, laat ons vir ons ’n stad bou en ’n toring waarvan die spits tot aan die hemel reik; en laat ons vir ons ’n naam maak, sodat ons nie oor die hele aarde verstrooid raak nie.
5 Toe daal die Here neer om die stad en die toring te besien waaraan die mensekinders gebou het.
6 En die Here sê: Daar is hulle nou een volk en het almal een taal! En dit is net die begin van hulle onderneming: nou sal niks vir hulle meer onmoontlik wees van wat hulle van plan is om te doen nie.
7 Kom, laat Ons neerdaal en hulle taal daar verwar, sodat die een die taal van die ander nie kan verstaan nie.
8 So het die Here hulle dan daarvandaan oor die hele aarde verstrooi; en hulle het opgehou om die stad te bou.
9 Daarom het hulle dit Babel genoem, want daar het die Here die taal van die hele aarde verwar, en daarvandaan het die Here hulle oor die hele aarde verstrooi.
1 Now the whole earth had one language and one speech.
2 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.
3 Then they said to one another, “Come, let us make bricks and bake them thoroughly.” They had brick for stone, and they had asphalt for mortar.
4 And they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top is in the heavens; let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth.”
5 But the Lord came down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men had built.
6 And the Lord said, “Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them.
7 Come, let Us go down and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.”
8 So the Lord scattered them abroad from there over the face of all the earth, and they ceased building the city.
9 Therefore its name is called Babel, because there the Lord confused the language of all the earth; and from there the Lord scattered them abroad over the face of all the earth.
