Sons of God and Daughters of Men

6When mankind began to multiply on the earth and daughters were born to them,H120H2490H7231H5921H6440H127H1323H3205 2the sons of God saw that the daughters of man were beautiful, and they took any they chose as wives for themselves.H1121H430H7200H1323H120H2007H2896H3947H802H977 3And the LORD said, "My Spirit will not remain with mankind forever, because they are corrupt. Their days will be 120 years."H3068H559H7307H5769H1777H120H1571H1320H7683H3117H3967H6242H8141 4The Nephilim were on the earth both in those days and afterwards, when the sons of God came to the daughters of man, who bore children to them. They were the powerful men of old, the famous men.H5303H776H3117H310H3651H834H1121H430H935H1323H120H3205H1992H1368H5769H582H8034

Judgment Decreed

5When the LORD saw that man's wickedness was widespread on the earth and that every scheme his mind thought of was nothing but evil all the time,H3068H7200H7451H120H7227H776H3336H4284H3820H7535H7451H3117 6the LORD regretted that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart.H5162H3068H6213H120H776H6087H413H3820 7Then the LORD said, "I will wipe off the face of the earth: man, whom I created, together with the animals, creatures that crawl, and birds of the sky— for I regret that I made them."H3068H559H4229H120H1254H6440H127H120H5704H929H7431H5775H8064H5162H6213 8Noah, however, found favor in the eyes of the LORD.H5146H4672H2580H5869H3068

God Warns Noah

9These are the family records of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless among his contemporaries; Noah walked with God.H8435H5146H5146H6662H376H8549H1755H5146H1980H430 10And Noah fathered three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.H5146H3205H7969H1121H8035H2526H3315 11Now the earth was corrupt in God's sight, and the earth was filled with violence.H776H7843H6440H430H776H4390H2555 12God saw how corrupt the earth was, for all flesh had corrupted its way on the earth.H430H7200H776H7843H1320H7843H1870H776 13Then God said to Noah, "I have decided to put an end to all flesh, for the earth is filled with violence because of them; therefore I am going to destroy them along with the earth.H430H559H5146H7093H1320H935H6440H776H4390H2555H6440H7843H854H776 14"Make yourself an ark of gofer wood. Make rooms in the ark, and cover it with pitch inside and outside.H6213H8392H1613H6086H7064H6213H854H8392H3722H1004H2351H3724 15This is how you are to make it: The ark will be 450 feet long, 75 feet wide, and 45 feet high.H6213H753H8392H7969H3967H520H7341H2572H520H6967H7970H520 16You are to make a roof, finishing [the sides of the ark] to within 18 inches [of the roof.] You are to put a door in the side of the ark. Make it with lower, middle, and upper [decks].H6672H6213H8392H520H3615H4605H6607H8392H7760H6654H8482H8145H7992H6213 17"Understand that I am bringing a deluge— floodwaters on the earth to destroy all flesh under heaven with the breath of life in it. Everything on earth will die.H2009H589H935H3999H4325H776H7843H1320H7307H2416H8478H8064H3605H776H1478 18But I will establish My covenant with you, and you will enter the ark with your sons, your wife, and your sons' wives.H6965H1285H935H413H8392H859H1121H802H1121H802 19You are also to bring into the ark two of every living thing of all flesh, male and female, to keep them alive with you.H2416H1320H8147H935H8392H2421H2145H5347 20Two of everything— from the birds according to their kinds, from the livestock according to their kinds, and from every animal that crawls on the ground according to its kind— will come to you so that you can keep them alive.H5775H4327H929H4327H7431H127H4327H8147H935H2421 21Take with you every kind of food that is eaten; gather it as food for you and for them."H3947H3978H398H622H402 22And Noah did this. He did everything that God had commanded him.H6213H5146H430H6680H6213
