Today's Scripture [1-22-13]

   And the whole earth was of one language, and
of one speech.
   And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the
east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar;
and they dwelt there.
   And they said one to another, Go to, let us make
brick and burn them throughly. and they had
brick for stone, and slime had they for morter.
   And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and
a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and
let us make us a name, lest we be scattered a-
broad upon the face of the whole earth.
   And the LORD came down to see the city and
the tower, which the children of men builded.
   And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one,
and they have all one language; and this they be-
gin to do; and now nothing will be restrained
from them, which they have imagined to do.
   Go to, let us go down, and there confound their
language, that they may not understand one a-
nother's speech.
   So the LORD scattered them abroad from
thence upon the face of all the earth: and they
left off to build the city.
   Therefore is the name of it called Babel; be-
cause 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.
