Buggs was right.

Nimrod defeated himself by trying to take the place of God by instilling fear in the people of his kingdom.

God’s wrath on Babel or Babylon is said to have given birth to all the languages of the world.

Kind of ironic, yes?

A Northerner and a Southerner were arguing about God being on their side during the American Civil War, each claiming God was on their side.
So they decided to go to the highest mountain and pray until they got an answer from God.
After 40 days and 40 nights the heavens opened and a bright light shone upon them surrounded by clouds as if they were the only two humans on Earth and a voice thundered down on them saying: “I am who I am!” and the light went away and the sun was no longer dwarfed and the clouds dispersed and the Northerner turned to the Southerner and said: “See I told he was on my side!”.
The Southerner retorted: “How do you figure that?”
The Northerner responded: “If he was on your side he would have said: “I’s is whose I’s is!” “.
