Genesis 11:3-4

New International Version

³ They said to each other, “Come, let’s make bricks^(A) and bake them thoroughly.” They used brick instead of stone,^(B) and tar^(C) for mortar. ⁴ Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens,^(D) so that we may make a name^(E) for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered^(F) over the face of the whole earth.”^(G)
