Genesis 6:5-14

5And the LORDH3068 sawH7200 that the wickednessH7451 of manH120 was greatH7227 in the earthH776, and that everyH3605 imaginationH3820 of the thoughtsH4284 of his heartH3820 was onlyH7535 evilH7451 continuallyH3117.

6And it repentedH5162 the LORDH3068 that he had madeH6213 manH120 on the earthH776, and it grievedH6087 him at his heartH3820.

7And the LORDH3068 saidH559, I will destroyH6213 manH120 whomH834 I have createdH1254 from the faceH6440 of the groundH127; bothH5921 manH120, and beastH929, and creepingH7431 thingH7431, and fowlH5775 of the air; for it repeateth meH6440 that I have madeH6213 them.

8But NoahH5146 foundH4672 graceH2580 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068.

9TheseH428 are the generationsH1755 of NoahH5146. NoahH5146 was a righteousH6662 manH376, and perfectH8549 in his generationsH1755: NoahH5146 walkedH1980 with GodH430.

10And NoahH5146 begat threeH7969 sonsH1121, ShemH8035, HamH2526, and JaphethH3315.

11And the earthH776 was corruptH7843 beforeH6440 GodH430, and the earthH776 was filledH4390 with violenceH2555.

12And GodH430 sawH7200 the earthH776, and, beholdH2009, it was corruptH7843; for allH3605 fleshH1320 had corruptedH7843 his wayH1870 uponH5921 the earthH776.

13And GodH430 saidH559 unto NoahH5146, The endH7093 of allH3605 fleshH1320 is comeH935 beforeH6440 meH6440; for the earthH776 is filledH4390 with violenceH2555 throughH935 them; and, beholdH2005, I will destroyH7843 them with the earthH776.

14MakeH6213 thee an arkH8392 of gopherH1613 woodH6086; roomsH7064 shalt thou makeH6213 in the arkH8392, and shalt pitchH3724 it withinH1004 and without with pitchH3724.
