Translation:

1   Now the whole world had one language with the same words.
2   Journeying eastwards, men found a plain in Shinar and settled there.
3   They said to one another: "Come! Let's make brick and burn it
thorougly!" They used bricks instead of stone and tar instead of mortar.
4   Then they said: "Come! Let's build a city for us with a tower up to the
sky, to make a name for us, so that we are not scattered over the whole earth."
5   But HaShem came down to see the city and the tower men were building.
6   HaShem said: "If as one people with one language they have begun doing
this, nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them.
7   Come! Let's go down and confuse their language, so that they will not
understand each other."
8   So HaShem scattered them over the whole earth, and they stopped building
the city.
9   Therefore the city was named Babel, because there HaShem confused the
language of the whole world; from there HaShem scattered them over the whole
earth.
