Genesis 6:9-13

9This is the report about Noah and his family. Noah was a good man. He was the only person at that time who lived in a completely right way. He stayed near to God in his life.

10Noah became the father of Shem, Ham and Japheth.

11God saw that everything on the earth had become spoiled. Everywhere, people were attacking each other.

12God saw how much the earth had become spoiled. Everyone was doing bad things.

13God said to Noah, ‘I will destroy everyone. That is what I have decided to do. Everywhere on the earth, people are attacking each other. Now I will destroy the people and also the earth.
