In the Old Testament book of Genesis, chapter 11 you can read about the Tower of Babel. The people that lived then wanted to build a tower that would reach to the heavens. They wanted to make a name for themselves. Everyone spoke the same language and they had the ability to build a great tower and God knew that if he made them all speak different languages, they would not be able to communicate and build the tower.
