Genesis 6
GEN 6:1 And it cometh to pass that mankind have begun to multiply on the face of
the ground, and daughters have been born to them,
GEN 6:2 and sons of God see the daughters of men that they `are' fair, and they
take to themselves women of all whom they have chosen.
GEN 6:3 And Jehovah saith, `My Spirit doth not strive in man -- to the age; in
their erring they `are' flesh:' and his days have been an hundred and twenty
years.
GEN 6:4 The fallen ones were in the earth in those days, and even afterwards
when sons of God come in unto daughters of men, and they have borne to them --
they `are' the heroes, who, from of old, `are' the men of name.
GEN 6:5 And Jehovah seeth that abundant `is' the wickedness of man in the earth,
and every imagination of the thoughts of his heart only evil all the day;
GEN 6:6 and Jehovah repenteth that He hath made man in the earth, and He
grieveth Himself -- unto His heart.
GEN 6:7 And Jehovah saith, `I wipe away man whom I have prepared from off the
face of the ground, from man unto beast, unto creeping thing, and unto fowl of
the heavens, for I have repented that I have made them.'
GEN 6:8 And Noah found grace in the eyes of Jehovah.
GEN 6:9 These `are' births of Noah: Noah `is' a righteous man; perfect he hath
been among his generations; with God hath Noah walked habitually.
GEN 6:10 And Noah begetteth three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
GEN 6:11 And the earth is corrupt before God, and the earth is filled `with'
violence.
GEN 6:12 And God seeth the earth, and lo, it hath been corrupted, for all flesh
hath corrupted its way on the earth.
GEN 6:13 And God said to Noah, `An end of all flesh hath come before Me, for the
earth hath been full of violence from their presence; and lo, I am destroying
them with the earth.
GEN 6:14 `Make for thyself an ark of gopher-wood; rooms dost thou make with the
ark, and thou hast covered it within and without with cypress;
GEN 6:15 and this `is' that which thou dost with it: three hundred cubits `is'
the length of the ark, fifty cubits its breadth, and thirty cubits its height;
GEN 6:16 a window dost thou make for the ark, and unto a cubit thou dost
restrain it from above; and the opening of the ark thou dost put in its side, --
lower, second, and third `stories' dost thou make it.
GEN 6:17 `And I, lo, I am bringing in the deluge of waters on the earth to
destroy all flesh, in which `is' a living spirit, from under the heavens; all
that `is' in the earth doth expire.
GEN 6:18 `And I have established My covenant with thee, and thou hast come in
unto the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy son's wives with thee;
GEN 6:19 and of all that liveth, of all flesh, two of every `sort' thou dost
bring in unto the ark, to keep alive with thee; male and female are they.
GEN 6:20 Of the fowl after its kind, and of the cattle after their kind, of
every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every `sort' they come
in unto thee, to keep alive.
GEN 6:21 `And thou, take to thyself of all food that is eaten; and thou hast
gathered unto thyself, and it hath been to thee and to them for food.'
GEN 6:22 And Noah doth according to all that God hath commanded him; so hath he
done.
