1 Og hele jorden hadde ett tungemål og ens tale.

9 Derfor kalte de den Babel; for der forvirret Herren hele jordens tungemål, og derfra spredte Herren dem ut over hele jorden.

1 And the whole earth is of one pronunciation, and of the same words,

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.
