Genesis 11
1 And all the world was of one tonge and one language.
Erat autem terra labii unius, et sermonum eorumdem.
2 And as they came from the east they founde a playne in the lande of Synear and there they dwelled.
Cumque proficiscerentur de oriente, invenerunt campum in terra Sennaar, et habitaverunt in eo.
3 And they sayd one to a nother: come on let us make brycke ad burne it wyth fyre. So brycke was there stone and slyme was there morter
Dixitque alter ad proximum suum: Venite, faciamus lateres, et coquamus eos igni. Habueruntque lateres pro saxis, et bitumen pro cæmento:
4 And they sayd: Come on let vs buylde vs a cyte and a toure that the toppe may reach vnto heauen. And let vs make us a name for perauenture we shall be scatered abrode over all the erth.
et dixerunt: Venite, faciamus nobis civitatem et turrim, cujus culmen pertingat ad cælum: et celebremus nomen nostrum antequam dividamur in universas terras.
5 And the LORde came downe to see the cyte and the toure which the childern of Ada had buylded.
Descendit autem Dominus ut videret civitatem et turrim, quam ædificabant filii Adam,
6 And the LORde sayd: See the people is one and haue one tonge amonge them all. And thys haue they begon to do and wyll not leaue of from all that they haue purposed to do.
et dixit: Ecce, unus est populus, et unum labium omnibus: cœperuntque hoc facere, nec desistent a cogitationibus suis, donec eas opere compleant.
7 Come on let vs descende and myngell theire tonge even there that one vnderstonde not what a nother sayeth.
Venite igitur, descendamus, et confundamus ibi linguam eorum, ut non audiat unusquisque vocem proximi sui.
8 Thus ye LORde skatered them from thence vppon all the erth. And they left of to buylde the cyte.
Atque ita divisit eos Dominus ex illo loco in universas terras, et cessaverunt ædificare civitatem.
9 Wherfore the name of it is called Babell because that the LORDE there confounded the tonge of all the world. And because that the LORde from thence skatered them abrode vppon all the erth.
Et idcirco vocatum est nomen ejus Babel, quia ibi confusum est labium universæ terræ: et inde dispersit eos Dominus super faciem cunctarum regionum.
