'Language' in the Bible

From these the coastland peoples spread out through their lands, each according to his own language by their own families, in their nations.

Now the whole earth [had] one language and the same words.

And Yahweh said, "Behold, {they are one people with one language}, and {this is only the beginning of what they will do}. So now nothing that they intend to do will be impossible for them.

Come, let us go down and confuse their language there, so that they will not understand {each other's language}."

Therefore its name was called Babel, for there Yahweh confused the language of the whole earth, and there Yahweh scattered them over the face of the whole earth.
