WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos)

1 And the whole earth is of one language, and of the same words,

1 The whole earth was of one language and of one speech.

2 and it comes to pass, in their journeying from the east, that they find a valley in the land of Shinar and dwell there;

2 As they traveled east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they lived there.

3 and they each say to his neighbor, “Give help, let us make bricks, and burn [them] thoroughly”: and the brick is to them for stone, and the bitumen has been to them for mortar.

3 They said to one another, “Come, let’s make bricks, and burn them thoroughly.” They had brick for stone, and they used tar for mortar.

4 And they say, “Give help, let us build for ourselves a city and tower with its head in the heavens, and make for ourselves a name, lest we be scattered over the face of all the earth.”

4 They said, “Come, let’s build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top reaches to the sky, and let’s make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad on the surface of the whole earth.”

5 And YHWH comes down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men have built;

5 Yahweh came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men built.

6 and YHWH says, “Behold, the people [is] one, and one language [is] to them all, and this it has dreamed of doing; and now, nothing is restrained from them of that which they have purposed to do.

6 Yahweh said, “Behold, they are one people, and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do. Now nothing will be withheld from them, which they intend to do.

7 Give help, let us go down there and confuse their language, so that a man will not understand the language of his companion.”

7 Come, let’s go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.”

8 And YHWH scatters them from there over the face of all the earth, and they cease to build the city;

8 So Yahweh scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth. They stopped building the city.

9 therefore [one] has called its name Babel, for there YHWH has confused the language of all the earth, and from there YHWH has scattered them over the face of all the earth.

9 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.

¿Por qué mi Biblia dice algo distinto?

Génesis 5 y 11: por qué difieren las edades de los patriarcas
En la Septuaginta griega, la mayoría de los patriarcas de Génesis 5 y 11 tienen a su hijo unos 100 años más tarde que en el texto hebreo, y Génesis 11 añade un segundo Cainán, a quien san Lucas también nombra (Lucas 3:36). El resultado es una historia del mundo más de mil años más larga. El calendario bizantino se construyó sobre las cifras griegas. Ninguna doctrina depende de una u otra serie.

Cita 11:1–9 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XVI, Chapters 3–4)
Therefore the name of it is called Confusion; because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth: and the Lord God scattered them thence on the face of all the earth." This city, which was called Confusion, is the same as Babylon, whose wonderful construction Gentile history also notices.

Cita 11:6 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XVI, Chapters 5–8)
The words, "Nothing will be restrained from them which they have imagined to do," are assuredly not meant as an affirmation, but as an interrogation, such as is used by persons threatening, as e.g., when Dido exclaims, "They will not take arms and pursue?" We are to understand the words as if it had been said, Shall nothing be restrained …
