God’s Word Translation
Genesis 6:5-11
5The Lord saw how evil humans had become on the earth. All day long their deepest thoughts were nothing but evil.
6The Lord was sorry that he had made humans on the earth, and he was heartbroken.
7So he said, “I will wipe off the face of the earth these humans that I created. I will wipe out not only humans, but also domestic animals, crawling animals, and birds. I’m sorry that I made them.”
8But the Lord was pleased with Noah.
9This is the account of Noah and his descendants. Noah had God’s approval and was a man of integrity among the people of his time. He walked with God.
10He had three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11The world was corrupt in God’s sight and full of violence.
