And it came to pass, when men{H120} began{H2490}{(H8689)} to multiply{H7231}{(H8800)} on{H5921} the face{H6440} of the earth{H127}, and daughters{H1323} were born{H3205}{(H8795)} unto them,

That the sons{H1121} of God{H430} saw{H7200}{(H8799)} the daughters{H1323} of men{H120} that they{H2007} were fair{H2896}; and they took{H3947}{(H8799)} them wives{H802} of all which they chose{H977}{(H8804)}.

And the LORD{H3068} said{H559}{(H8799)}, My spirit{H7307} shall not always{H5769} strive{H1777}{(H8799)} with man{H120}, for that he also{H1571}{(H8677)}{H7683}{(H8800)} is flesh{H1320}: yet his days{H3117} shall be an hundred{H3967} and twenty{H6242} years{H8141}.

There were giants{H5303} in the earth{H776} in those days{H3117}; and also after{H310} that{H3651}, when{H834} the sons{H1121} of God{H430} came in{H935}{(H8799)} unto the daughters{H1323} of men{H120}, and they bare{H3205}{(H8804)} children to them, the same{H1992} became mighty men{H1368} which were of old{H5769}, men{H582} of renown{H8034}.

And GOD{H3068} saw{H7200}{(H8799)} that the wickedness{H7451} of man{H120} was great{H7227} in the earth{H776}, and that every imagination{H3336} of the thoughts{H4284} of his heart{H3820} was only{H7535} evil{H7451} continually{H3117}.

And it repented{H5162}{(H8735)} the LORD{H3068} that he had made{H6213}{(H8804)} man{H120} on the earth{H776}, and it grieved{H6087}{(H8691)} him at{H413} his heart{H3820}.

And the LORD{H3068} said{H559}{(H8799)}, I will destroy{H4229}{(H8799)} man{H120} whom I have created{H1254}{(H8804)} from the face{H6440} of the earth{H127}; both man{H120}, and{H5704} beast{H929}, and the creeping thing{H7431}, and the fowls{H5775} of the air{H8064}; for it repenteth{H5162}{(H8738)} me that I have made{H6213}{(H8804)} them.

But Noah{H5146} found{H4672}{(H8804)} grace{H2580} in the eyes{H5869} of the LORD{H3068}.

These are the generations{H8435} of Noah{H5146}: Noah{H5146} was a just{H6662} man{H376} and perfect{H8549} in his generations{H1755}, and Noah{H5146} walked{H1980}{(H8694)} with God{H430}.

And Noah{H5146} begat{H3205}{(H8686)} three{H7969} sons{H1121}, Shem{H8035}, Ham{H2526}, and Japheth{H3315}.

The earth{H776} also was corrupt{H7843}{(H8735)} before{H6440} God{H430}, and the earth{H776} was filled{H4390}{(H8735)} with violence{H2555}.

And God{H430} looked{H7200}{(H8799)} upon the earth{H776}, and, behold, it was corrupt{H7843}{(H8738)}; for all flesh{H1320} had corrupted{H7843}{(H8689)} his way{H1870} upon the earth{H776}.

And God{H430} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Noah{H5146}, The end{H7093} of all flesh{H1320} is come{H935}{(H8804)} before me{H6440}; for the earth{H776} is filled with{H4390}{(H8804)} violence{H2555} through them{H6440}; and, behold, I will destroy{H7843}{(H8688)} them with{H854} the earth{H776}.

Make{H6213}{(H8798)} thee an ark{H8392} of gopher{H1613} wood{H6086}; rooms{H7064} shalt thou make{H6213}{(H8799)} in{H854} the ark{H8392}, and shalt pitch{H3722}{(H8804)} it within{H1004} and without{H2351} with pitch{H3724}.

And this is the fashion which thou shalt make{H6213}{(H8799)} it of: The length{H753} of the ark{H8392} shall be three{H7969} hundred{H3967} cubits{H520}, the breadth{H7341} of it fifty{H2572} cubits{H520}, and the height{H6967} of it thirty{H7970} cubits{H520}.

A window{H6672} shalt thou make{H6213}{(H8799)} to the ark{H8392}, and in a cubit{H520} shalt thou finish{H3615}{(H8762)} it above{H4605}; and the door{H6607} of the ark{H8392} shalt thou set{H7760}{(H8799)} in the side thereof{H6654}; with lower{H8482}, second{H8145}, and third{H7992} stories shalt thou make{H6213}{(H8799)} it.

And, behold{H2009}, I{H589}, even I, do bring{H935}{(H8688)} a flood{H3999} of waters{H4325} upon the earth{H776}, to destroy{H7843}{(H8763)} all flesh{H1320}, wherein is the breath{H7307} of life{H2416}, from under{H8478} heaven{H8064}; and every thing{H3605} that is in the earth{H776} shall die{H1478}{(H8799)}.

But with thee will I establish{H6965}{(H8689)} my covenant{H1285}; and thou shalt come{H935}{(H8804)} into{H413} the ark{H8392}, thou{H859}, and thy sons{H1121}, and thy wife{H802}, and thy sons{H1121}' wives{H802} with thee.

And of every living thing{H2416} of all flesh{H1320}, two{H8147} of every sort shalt thou bring{H935}{(H8686)} into the ark{H8392}, to keep them alive{H2421}{(H8687)} with thee; they shall be male{H2145} and female{H5347}.

Of fowls{H5775} after their kind{H4327}, and of cattle{H929} after their kind{H4327}, of every creeping thing{H7431} of the earth{H127} after his kind{H4327}, two{H8147} of every sort shall come{H935}{(H8799)} unto thee, to keep them alive{H2421}{(H8687)}.

And take{H3947}{(H8798)} thou unto thee of all food{H3978} that is eaten{H398}{(H8735)}, and thou shalt gather{H622}{(H8804)} it to thee; and it shall be for food{H402} for thee, and for them.

Thus did{H6213}{(H8799)} Noah{H5146}; according to all that God{H430} commanded{H6680}{(H8765)} him, so did{H6213}{(H8804)} he.
