| 11:1 | And the whole earth is of one pronunciation, and of the same words, |
| 11:2 | and it cometh to pass, in their journeying from the east, that they find a valley in the land of Shinar, and dwell there; |
| 11:3 | and they say each one to his neighbour, `Give help, let us make bricks, and burn `them' thoroughly:' and the brick is to them for stone, and the bitumen hath been to them for mortar. |

| 11:5 | And Jehovah cometh down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men have builded; |
| 11:6 | and Jehovah saith, `Lo, the people `is' one, and one pronunciation `is' to them all, and this it hath dreamed of doing; and now, nothing is restrained from them of that which they have purposed to do. |
| 11:7 | Give help, let us go down, and mingle there their pronunciation, so that a man doth not understand the pronunciation of his companion.' |
| 11:8 | And Jehovah doth scatter them from thence over the face of all the earth, and they cease to build the city; |
| 11:9 | therefore hath `one' called its name Babel, for there hath Jehovah mingled the pronunciation of all the earth, and from thence hath Jehovah scattered them over the face of all the earth. |

Young's Literal Translation 1862
Young's Literal Translation is a translation of the Bible into English, published in 1862. The translation was made by Robert Young, compiler of Young's Analytical Concordance to the Bible and Concise Critical Comments on the New Testament. Young used the Textus Receptus and the Majority Text as the basis for his translation. He wrote in the preface to the first edition, "It has been no part of the Translator's plan to attempt to form a New Hebrew or Greek Text--he has therefore somewhat rigidly adhered to the received ones."
