I don't know if this is the kind of thing you mean, it's not exactly supernatural though so apologies if not.
God created all the different languages to confuse people after they worked together building the Tower of Babel. They were doing too well, and he didn't want them getting up to the heavens where he was. So he made them speak different languages so they could no longer cooperate.
As with all the bible, it's hard to know if anyone ever believed it or if it's an allegory. And as usual, it's God being a prick. Bonus points for that?
