Genesis 6 — TOE
6Verse 1And it was when the sons of men had begun to multiply upon the earth, and daughters were born to them,Verse 2that the sons of the mighty saw the daughters of men that they were beautiful, and took to them wives of all whom they pleased.Verse 3And the Lord said, This evil generation shall not stand before me forever, because they are flesh, and their works are evil. A term (or length) will I give them, an hundred and twenty years, if they may be converted.Verse 4Giants were in the earth in those days; and also when, after that the sons of the mighty had gone in unto the daughters of men, there were born from them giants who from of old were men of name.Verse 5And the Lord saw that the wickedness of man had multiplied in the earth, and that every formation (or image) of the thought of his heart was only evil every day.Verse 6And it repented the Lord in His Word that He had made men upon the earth.Verse 7And He said, (in His Word,) that He would break their strength according to His pleasure. And the Lord said, Man whom I have made will I blot out I from the face of the earth; from man to the beast, to the reptile, and to the fowls of heaven; because it repenteth Me in My Word that I have made them.Verse 8But Noach found mercy before the Lord.Verse 9These are the memorials of Noach. Noach was a man righteous and perfect in his generation; in the fear of the Lord walked Noach.Verse 10And Noach begat three sons, Shem, Cham, and Yapeth.Verse 11And the earth was corrupted before the Lord, and the earth was filled with violences.Verse 12And the Lord saw the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt, because all flesh had corrupted, each one, his way upon the earth.Verse 13And the Lord said to Noach, The end of all flesh cometh before Me, because the earth is filled with violences from the face of their wicked works; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.Verse 14Make thee an ark with the wood of cedar; dwellings shalt thou make in the ark, and overlay it within and without with pitch.Verse 15And thus shalt thou make it: three hundred cubits shall be the length of the ark, fifty cubits its breadth, and thirty cubits its height.Verse 16A light shalt thou make to the ark, and at a cubit shalt thou complete it above, and the door of the ark thou shalt place in its side. Lower dwellings, second and third, shalt thou make in it.Verse 17And I, behold, I do bring the deluge of waters upon the earth to destroy all flesh in which is the breath of life from under the heavens. Everything that is on the earth shall die.Verse 18And I will establish My covenant with thee; and thou shalt enter into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and the wives of thy sons with thee.Verse 19And of all that liveth of all flesh two and two of all that enter into the ark to abide with thee, male and female shall they be.Verse 20Of fowl according to its kind, and of cattle according to her kind, and of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of all shall enter with thee to abide.Verse 21And thou, take with thee of all food which is eaten, and gather to be with thee; and it shall be for thee and for them to eat.Verse 22And Noach did according to all which the Lord had commanded him, so did he.
