01:005:031 And all the days of Lamech were seven hundred seventy and
seven years: and he died.
01:005:032 And Noah was five hundred years old: and Noah begat Shem, Ham,
and Japheth.
01:006:001 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of
the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
01:006:002 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were
fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.
01:006:003 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man,
for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred
and twenty years.
01:006:004 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after
that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men,
and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men
which were of old, men of renown.
01:006:005 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth,
and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was
only evil continually.
01:006:006 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth,
and it grieved him at his heart.
01:006:007 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from
the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping
thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I
have made them.
01:006:008 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
01:006:009 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and
perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.
01:006:010 And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
01:006:011 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was
filled with violence.
01:006:012 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt;
for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
01:006:013 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before
me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and,
behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
01:006:014 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the
ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.
01:006:015 And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The
length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth
of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.
01:006:016 A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou
finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the
side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou
make it.
01:006:017 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the
earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life,
from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall
die.
