7 Come, let us go down and there confuse their language, so that no one will understand the speech of another.

8 So the LORD scattered them from there over all the earth, and they stopped building the city.

9 That is why it was called Babel, because there the LORD confused the speech of all the world. From there the LORD scattered them over all the earth.
