The Bible has been translated into many languages from the biblical language Hebrew.
Genesis 11:1-9
"Now the whole earth had one language and the same words.
As the people (Noah' s sons) journeyed from the east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar and settled there.
They said to each other, “Let us make bricks and bake them thoroughly”. And they had brick for stone and tar for mortar. Then they said, “Come, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top will reach to heaven, and let us make a name for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth”.
But the Creator of Heaven and earth YHVH (YEHOVAH) came down to see the city and the tower that the sons of men built.
The Creator YHVH said,
“The people are one and they have one language, and this is only the beginning of what they will do; now nothing that they propose to do will be impossible for them. Come, let us go down and there confuse their language, so that they may not understand one another’s speech”. So the Creator of heaven and earth YHVH (YEHOVAH) scattered them abroad from there over the face of all the earth, and they stopped building the city.
Therefore the name of it was called Babel, because there the Creator of heaven and earth YHVH (YEHOVAH) confused the language of all the earth. From there the Creator of heaven and earth YHVH (YEHOVAH) scattered them abroad over the face of all the earth.
Noah was five hundred years old and became the father of Shem (Sem/Semitas), Ham (Can/Cananeos), and Japheth (Jafet).
Then one who had escaped came and told Abram the Hebrew (Ivri), who was living near the oaks of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshkol and Aner, and these were allies with Abram.
