[和合本]巴别塔
1[和合本]那时，天下人的口音言语都是一样。
[KJV]And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.language: Heb. lip.speech: Heb. words
2[和合本]他们往东边迁移的时候，在示拿地遇见一片平原，就住在那里。
[KJV]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.from…: or, eastward
3[和合本]他们彼此商量说：“来吧，我们要作砖，把砖烧透了。”他们就拿砖当石头，又拿石漆当灰泥。
[KJV]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.they said…: Heb. a man said to his neighbourburn…: Heb. burn them to a burning
4[和合本]他们说：“来吧，我们要建造一座城和一座塔，塔顶通天，为要传扬我们的名，免得我们分散在全地上。”
[KJV]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.
5[和合本]耶和华降临，要看看世人所建造的城和塔。
[KJV]And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.
6[和合本]耶和华说：“看哪，他们成为一样的人民，都是一样的言语，如今既作起这事来，以后他们所要作的事就没有不成就的了。
[KJV]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.
7[和合本]我们下去，在那里变乱他们的口音，使他们的言语彼此不通。”
[KJV]Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.
8[和合本]于是，耶和华使他们从那里分散在全地上，他们就停工不造那城了。
[KJV]So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
9[和合本]因为耶和华在那里变乱天下人的言语，使众人分散在全地上，所以那城名叫巴别（就是“变乱”的意思）。
[KJV]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.Babel: that is, Confusion
