After the Flood, Naoh's sons and their wives had many children. Their families grew, and they began to spread to different parts of the earth.
But some of the families did not obey God and decided to build a city and stay there. They wanted to build a tower so tall that its top will reach all the way to heaven. They wanted to become famous.
The fact that God was not happy with their plan, He suddenly made them speak different languages and so they could no longer understand one another. And the city that had been building became known as Babel, which means confusion. Read Genesis 11: 1-9
Luke 18: 14 reminds us that " Everyone who exals himself will be humiliated, but whoever humbles himself will be exalted."
The lesson that we can all learn is, all those who want to do things their way , without taking into consideration God's requirements will fail. Jeremiah 10: 23 reminds us that it does not belong to man/woman who is walking even to direct his/her step.
History has shown that they do a poor job. Humans were not created to rule themselves. Governments are unable to handle the universal enemies of poverty, hunger, disease, natural disaster, and war or other violence.
God's plan is to put in place His government, called the kingdom of God, that will undo all the harm that millenniums of human rule have done. Read Revelation 19: 17,18.
So to answer your question, which is" What is the curse of Babel? The curse is that mankind was created to speak one language and communicate with each other in harmony with God's requirements and is no longer the case. Today we are living in a world of confusion, but God's word The Bible can help us to live in harmony, if we humbly accept His teaching.
2 Timothy 3: 16,17reminds us that God's word is beneficial for our teaching, so we can become fully competent, completely equipped for every good work.
Psalm 37: 29 shows what our future holds in these words. " The righteous will possess the earth, and they will live forever on it". Which has always been God's purpose, that has been postponed for the moment.

Did God call Abraham to leave the city of Babel?
* yes he did * No. In Genesis, the story of Babel is told immediately before the story of Abraham starts, but it is a completely different story. Abraham was called by God to leave his home in Ur of the Chaldees. This is a different place from Babel as well as a different time frame, as already mentioned. 1Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee: 2And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: 3And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. 4So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran. 5And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran; and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came. Although the family history (genealogical record) of Abraham is mentioned in Genesis 11:10-32 it makes no mention of Abraham ever having been in Babel. It is possible that Abraham's city of Ur arose as did many others due to the dispersion if peoples necessitated by the confusion of languages at Babel, which had occurred earlier. The account of Babel is in Genesis 11:1-9, and although undoubtedly some of the ancestors of Abraham were around at the time of Babel it is thought that Abraham lived somewhat later. Did God call Abraham - Yes. Did God call him from Babel - no. It was from Ur.

Who undoes the curse of babel in the New Testament?
The 'curse' of Babel is undone by the Holy Spirit on Pentecost (Acts 2:2-12). After Babel, men were separated via language.
