تفسير راشي

راشي — Genesis 11:8
ויפץ ה' אתם משם. בָּעוֹלָם הַזֶּה; מַה שֶּׁאָמְרוּ פֶּן נָפוּץ, נִתְקַיֵּם עֲלֵיהֶם, הוּא שֶׁאָמַר שְׁלֹמֹה מְגוֹרַת רָשָׁע הִיא תְבוֹאֶנּוּ (משלי י'):

ויפץ ה' אתם משם SO THE LORD SCATTERED THEM ABROAD FROM THENCE—In this world (Sanhedrin 107b). What they had said. (Genesis 11:4) “lest we be scattered abroad” really happened to them. This is what Solomon said, (Proverbs 10:24) “What the wicked fears will come upon him” (Midrash Tanchuma, Noach 18).
