11:1 Now
the
whole
earth
had
one
language
and
the
same
words.
11:2 And
as
people
migrated
from
the
east,
they
found
a
plain
in
the
land
of
Shinar
and
settled
there.
11:3 And
they
said
to
one
another,
"Come,
let
us
make
bricks,
and
burn
them
thoroughly."
And
they
had
brick
for
stone,
and
bitumen
for
mortar.
11:4 Then
they
said,
"Come,
let
us
build
ourselves
a
city
and
a
tower
with
its
top
in
the
heavens,
and
let
us
make
a
name
for
ourselves,
lest
we
be
dispersed
over
the
face
of
the
whole
earth."
11:5 And
the
LORD
came
down
to
see
the
city
and
the
tower,
which
the
children
of
man
had
built.
11:6 And
the
LORD
said,
"Behold,
they
are
one
people,
and
they
have
all
one
language,
and
this
is
only
the
beginning
of
what
they
will
do.
And
nothing
that
they
propose
to
do
will
now
be
impossible
for
them.
11:7 Come,
let
us
go
down
and
there
confuse
their
language,
so
that
they
may
not
understand
one
another's
speech."
11:8 So
the
LORD
dispersed
them
from
there
over
the
face
of
all
the
earth,
and
they
left
off
building
the
city.
11:9 Therefore
its
name
was
called
Babel,
because
there
the
LORD
confused
the
language
of
all
the
earth.
And
from
there
the
LORD
dispersed
them
over
the
face
of
all
the
earth.
11:10 These
are
the
generations
of
Shem.
When
Shem
was
100
years
old,
he
fathered
Arpachshad
two
years
after
the
flood.
11:11 And
Shem
lived
after
he
fathered
Arpachshad
500
years
and
had
other
sons
and
daughters.
11:12 When
Arpachshad
had
lived
35
years,
he
fathered
Shelah.
11:13 And
Arpachshad
lived
after
he
fathered
Shelah
403
years
and
had
other
sons
and
daughters.
11:14 When
Shelah
had
lived
30
years,
he
fathered
Eber.
11:15 And
Shelah
lived
after
he
fathered
Eber
403
years
and
had
other
sons
and
daughters.
11:16 When
Eber
had
lived
34
years,
he
fathered
Peleg.
11:17 And
Eber
lived
after
he
fathered
Peleg
430
years
and
had
other
sons
and
daughters.
11:18 When
Peleg
had
lived
30
years,
he
fathered
Reu.
11:19 And
Peleg
lived
after
he
fathered
Reu
209
years
and
had
other
sons
and
daughters.
11:20 When
Reu
had
lived
32
years,
he
fathered
Serug.
11:21 And
Reu
lived
after
he
fathered
Serug
207
years
and
had
other
sons
and
daughters.
11:22 When
Serug
had
lived
30
years,
he
fathered
Nahor.
11:23 And
Serug
lived
after
he
fathered
Nahor
200
years
and
had
other
sons
and
daughters.
11:24 When
Nahor
had
lived
29
years,
he
fathered
Terah.
11:25 And
Nahor
lived
after
he
fathered
Terah
119
years
and
had
other
sons
and
daughters.
11:26 When
Terah
had
lived
70
years,
he
fathered
Abram,
Nahor,
and
Haran.
11:27 Now
these
are
the
generations
of
Terah.
Terah
fathered
Abram,
Nahor,
and
Haran;
and
Haran
fathered
Lot.
11:28 Haran
died
in
the
presence
of
his
father
Terah
in
the
land
of
his
kindred,
in
Ur
of
the
Chaldeans.
11:29 And
Abram
and
Nahor
took
wives.
The
name
of
Abram's
wife
was
Sarai,
and
the
name
of
Nahor's
wife,
Milcah,
the
daughter
of
Haran
the
father
of
Milcah
and
Iscah.
11:30 Now
Sarai
was
barren;
she
had
no
child.
11:31 Terah
took
Abram
his
son
and
Lot
the
son
of
Haran,
his
grandson,
and
Sarai
his
daughter-in-law,
his
son
Abram's
wife,
and
they
went
forth
together
from
Ur
of
the
Chaldeans
to
go
into
the
land
of
Canaan,
but
when
they
came
to
Haran,
they
settled
there.
11:32 The
days
of
Terah
were
205
years,
and
Terah
died
in
Haran.
