CHAP. VI. 1 The wickednesse of the world, which prouoked Gods wrath, and caused the Flood. 8 Noah findeth grace. 13 The order, forme, and end of the Arke.

1   
And it came to passe, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were borne vnto them:

2   
That the sonnes of God saw the daughters of men, that they were faire, and they took them wiues, of all which they chose.

3   
And the LORD said, My Spirit shall not alwayes striue with man; for that hee also is flesh: yet his dayes shalbe an hundred and twenty yeeres.

4   
There were Giants in the earth in those daies: and also after that, when the sonnes of God came in vnto the daughters of men, ∧ they bare children to them; the same became mightie men, which were of old, men of renowme.

5   
¶ And God saw, that the wickednes of man was great in the earth, and note that euery imagination of the thoughts of his note heart was onely euill note continually.

6   
And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieued him at his heart.

7   
And the LORD said, I will destroy man, whom I haue created, Noahs Arke. from the face of the earth: note both man and beast, and the creeping thing, and the foules of the aire: for it repenteth me that I haue made them.

8   
But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.

9   
¶ These are the generations of Noah: note Noah was a iust man, and note perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.

10   
And Noah begate three sonnes: Sem, Ham, and Iapheth.

11   
The earth also was corrupt before God; and the earth was filled with violence.

12   
And God looked vpon the earth, and behold, it was corrupt: for all flesh had corrupted his way vpon the earth.

13   
And God said vnto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before mee; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them note with the earth.

14   
¶ Make thee an Arke of Gopher-wood: note roomes shalt thou make in the arke, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.

15   
And this is the fashion, which thou shalt make it of: the length of the arke shalbe three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirtie cubits.

16   
A window shalt thou make to the arke, and in a cubite shalt thou finish it aboue; and the doore of the arke shalt thou set in the side thereof: With lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it.

17   
And behold, I, euen I doe bring a flood of waters vpon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life from vnder heauen, and euery thing that is in the earth shall die.

18   
But with thee wil I establish my Couenant: and thou shalt come into the Arke, thou, and thy sonnes, and thy wife, and thy sonnes wiues with thee.

19   
And of euery liuing thing of all flesh, two of euery sort shalt thou bring into the Arke, to keepe them aliue with thee: they shall be male and female.

20   
Of fowles after their kinde, and of cattel after their kinde: of euery creeping thing of the earth after his kinde, two of euery sort shall come vnto thee, to keepe them aliue.

21   
And take thou vnto thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather it to thee; and it shall be for food,

-- --

Noah entreth into the Arke. for thee, and for them.

22   
noteThus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he. 7
