Barashiyt 11

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

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.

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.

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."

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

And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 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.

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

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

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

These are the generations of Sham: Sham was an hundred years old, and begat Arpakshad two years after the flood:

And Sham lived after he begat Arpakshad five hundred years, and begat sons and daughters.

And Arpakshad lived five and thirty years, and begat Shalach:

And Arpakshad lived after he begat Shalach four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.

And Shalach lived thirty years, and begat Abar:

And Shalach lived after he begat Abar four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.

And Abar lived four and thirty years, and begat Palag:

And Abar lived after he begat Palag four hundred and thirty years, and begat sons and daughters.

And Palag lived thirty years, and begat Ra'u:

And Palag lived after he begat Ra'u two hundred and nine years, and begat sons and daughters.

And Ra'u lived two and thirty years, and begat Sharug:

And Ra'u lived after he begat Sharug two hundred and seven years, and begat sons and daughters.

And Sharug lived thirty years, and begat Nachur:

And Sharug lived after he begat Nachur two hundred years, and begat sons and daughters.

And Nachur lived nine and twenty years, and begat Terach:

And Nachur lived after he begat Terach an hundred and nineteen years, and begat sons and daughters.

And Terach lived seventy years, and begat Abram, Nachur, and Haran.

Now these are the generations of Terach: Terach begat Abram, Nachur, and Haran; and Haran begat Lut.

And Haran died before his father Terach in the land of his nativity, in Ur of the Chaldees.

And Abram and Nachur took them wives: the name of Abram's wife was Sarai; and the name of Nachur's wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah, and the father of Iscah.

But Sarai was barren; she had no child.

And Terach took Abram his son, and Lut the son of Haran his son's son, and Sarai his daughter in law, his son Abram's wife; and they went forth with them from Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Kena’an; and they came unto Haran, and dwelt there.

And the days of Terach were two hundred and five years: and Terach died in Haran.
