Genesis 11:1-3 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

1. The whole world had only one language. All people spoke it.

2. They moved to the east and found a broad valley in Babylonia. There they settled down.

3. They said to each other, "Come. Let's make bricks and bake them well." They used bricks instead of stones. They used tar to hold the bricks together.
