Psalm 33:10-15
10 Fear the Lord, all you his saints. For there is no destitution for those who fear him. 11 The rich have been needy and hungry, but those who seek the Lord will not be deprived of any good thing. 12 Come forward, sons. Listen to me. I will teach you the fear of the Lord. 13 Which is the man who wills life, who chooses to see good days? 14 Prohibit your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking deceit. 15 Turn away from evil, and do good. Inquire about peace, and pursue it. Genesis 11:1-9 1 Now the earth was of one language and of the same speech. 2 And when they were advancing from the east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they dwelt in it. 3 And each one said to his neighbor, "Come, let us make bricks, and bake them with fire." And they had bricks instead of stones, and pitch instead of mortar. 4 And they said: "Come, let us make a city and a tower, so that its height may reach to heaven. And let us make our name famous before we are divided into all the lands." 5 Then the Lord descended to see the city and the tower, which the sons of Adam were building. 6 And he said: "Behold, the people are united, and all have one tongue. And since they have begun to do this, they will not desist from their plans, until they have completed their work. 7 Therefore, come, let us descend, and in that place confound their tongue, so that they may not listen, each one to the voice of his neighbor." 8 And so the Lord divided them from that place into all the lands, and they ceased to build the city. 9 And for this reason, its name was called 'Babel,' because in that place the language of the whole earth became confused. And from then on, the Lord scattered them across the face of every region.
