* And it came to pass , when men began to multiply on the face of the earth and daughters were born unto them , * that the sons of God saw that the daughters of men [were ] fair , and they took [for ] themselves wives of all whom they chose . * And the LORD said , My spirit shall not always strive with man , for certainly he [is ] flesh ; yet his days shall be one hundred and twenty years . * 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 bore [sons ] to them , the same [became ] mighty men who [were ] of old , men of renown . * 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 . * And the LORD repented of having made man on the earth , and it grieved him at his heart . * And the LORD said , I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth , both man and beast and the animals and the fowls of the air ; for I repent of having made them . * But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD . * These [are ] the generations of Noah . Noah was a just man [and ] perfect in his generations , [and ] Noah walked with God . * And Noah begat three sons , Shem , Ham , and Japheth . * The earth corrupted itself before God , and the earth filled itself with violence . * And God looked upon the earth , and , behold , it was corrupt , for all flesh had corrupted its way upon the earth . * 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 . * Make thee an ark of cedar trees ; rooms shalt thou make in the ark and shalt reconcile it within and without covering it over with pitch . * And this [is the fashion of ] which thou shalt make it : The length of the ark [shall be ] three hundred cubits , the breadth of it fifty cubits , and the height of it thirty cubits . * 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 . * And , behold , I , even I , do bring a flood of waters upon the earth , to destroy all flesh , in which [is ] the spirit of life , from under heaven ; [and ] every thing that [is ] in the earth shall die . * But with thee I will establish my covenant ; and thou shalt come into the ark , thou and thy sons and thy wife and thy sons ' wives with thee . * And of every living thing of all flesh , two of every [sort ] shalt thou bring into the ark , to keep [them ] alive with thee ; they shall be male and female . * Of fowls after their kind and of beasts after their kind , of every animal of the earth after its kind , two of every [sort ] shall come unto thee , to keep [them ] alive . * And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten , and thou shalt gather [it ] to thee ; and it shall be for food for thee and for them . * Thus did Noah ; according to all that God commanded him , so did he .:
