Genesis 11:6

6 And the Lord said, “If as one people all sharing a common language ^{▼▼ Heb “and one lip to all of them.”} they have begun to do this, then ^{▼▼ Heb “and now.” The foundational clause beginning with הֵן (hen) expresses the condition, and the second clause the result. It could be rendered “If this…then now.”} nothing they plan to do will be beyond them. ^{▼▼ Heb “all that they purpose to do will not be withheld from them.”}
