Parallel

Genesis 11:9

World English Bible British Edition · Berean Standard Bible

Therefore its name was called Babel, because there the LORD confused the language of all the earth. From there, the LORD scattered them abroad on the surface of all the earth.
That is why it is called Babel (note: Or Babylon; the Hebrew word for Babel sounds like the Hebrew for confused.), for there the LORD confused the language of the whole world, and from that place the LORD scattered them over the face of all the earth.
