New Testament

Genesis 11:7-13 American Standard Version (ASV)

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

8. So Jehovah scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off building the city.

9. 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.

10. These are the generations of Shem. Shem was a hundred years old, and begat Arpachshad two years after the flood.

11. and Shem lived after he begat Arpachshad five hundred years, and begat sons and daughters.

12. And Arpachshad lived five and thirty years, and begat Shelah.

13. and Arpachshad lived after he begat Shelah four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.
