Therefore was the name of it called Babel; because Jehovah did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did Jehovah scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.

So it was named Babel, because there the Lord took away the sense of all languages and from there the Lord sent them away over all the face of the earth.

Δια τουτο ωνομασθη το ονομα αυτης Βαβελ· διοτι εκει συνεχεεν ο Κυριος την γλωσσαν πασης της γης· και εκειθεν διεσκορπισεν αυτους ο Κυριος επι το προσωπον πασης της γης.

Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the Lord scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.

Therefore its name was called Babel, because there Yahweh confused the language of all the earth. From there, Yahweh scattered them abroad on the surface of all the earth.
