In the story of the Tower of Babel, God promised not to scatter the people by changing their language again. He allowed them to keep their language but dispersed them throughout the earth to prevent them from becoming too powerful.
When the people disobeyed the command of god to scatter abroad over the face of all over the earth and instead built a tower to reach heaven. God confused the language of all the earth and made the people scatter abroad the face of all the earth.
Yes, in the biblical story of the Tower of Babel, the people's attempt to build a tower to reach the heavens was seen as an act of prideful rebellion against God's authority. God intervened by confusing their language to scatter them across the earth, symbolizing the consequences of human arrogance and disobedience.
Jeremiah 23:1 "Woe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of My pasture!" says the Lord. God is saying not to mess with His people and cause division among them.
According to the Bible, God caused confusion among the people building the Tower of Babel by making them speak different languages, which led to disputes and the abandonment of the project. This scattering of the people due to linguistic differences ultimately led to the downfall of the tower.

Noah's ark (Gen 6) happened many years before the tower of Babel (Gen 11). Gen 11 discusses the flood as a past event. In the Tower of Babel narrative God does not destroy the tower nor the people but alters people's language so they cannot understand each other.
God sent a flood to the earth to wipe out the evil people that were alive. It did not destroy the whole earth, but drastically altered it.
