Genesis Chapter 6

1. And it came to pass when man commenced to multiply upon the face of the earth, and daughters were born to them. 2. That the sons of the nobles saw the daughters of man when they were beautifying themselves, and they took for themselves wives from whomever they chose. 3. And the Lord said, � Let My spirit not quarrel forever concerning man, because he is also flesh, and his days shall be a hundred and twenty years.� 4. The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of the nobles would come to the daughters of man, and they would bear for them; they are the mighty men, who were of old, the men of renown. 5. And the Lord saw that the evil of man was great in the earth, and every imagination of his heart was only evil all the time. 6. And the Lord regretted that He had made man upon the earth, and He became grieved in His heart. 7. And the Lord said, � I will blot out man, whom I created, from upon the face of the earth, from man to cattle to creeping things, to the fowl of the heavens, for I regret that I ever made them.� 8. But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord. 9. These are the generations of Noah, Noah was a righteous man he was perfect in his generations; Noah walked with God. 10. And Noah begot three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. 11. Now the earth was corrupt before God, and the earth became full of robbery. 12. And God saw the earth, and behold it had become corrupted, for all flesh had corrupted its way on the earth. 13. And God said to Noah, �The end of all flesh has come before Me, for the earth has become full of robbery because of them, and behold I am destroying them from the earth. 14. Make for yourself an ark of gopher wood; you shall make an ark with compartments, and you shall caulk it both inside and outside with pitch. 15. And this (is the size) you shall make it: three hundred cubits the length of the ark, fifty cubits its breadth, and thirty cubits its height. 16. You shall make a skylight for the ark, and to a cubit you shall finish it to the top, and the entrance of the ark you shall place in its side; you shall make it with bottom compartments, second story (compartments), and third story (compartments). 17. And I, behold I am bringing the flood, water upon the earth, to destroy all flesh in which there is the spirit of life, from beneath the heavens; all that is upon the earth will perish. 18. And I will set up My covenant with you, and you shall come into the ark, you and your sons, and your wife and your son�s wives with you. 19. And of all living things of all flesh, two of each you shall bring into the ark to preserve alive with you; they shall be male and female. 20. Of the fowl after its kind and of the animals after their kind, of every creeping thing upon the ground after its kind; two of each you shall preserve alive. 21. And you, take for yourself of every food that is eaten and gather it in to you, and it shall be for you and for them to eat.� 22. And Noah did; according to all that God had commanded him, so he did.
