Gods belofte aan Noach
6 Het aantal mensen op aarde groeide gestadig. 2 In die tijd lieten zonen van God hun oog vallen op dochters van mensen. Onder de indruk van hun schoonheid, namen zij hen tot vrouw. 3 Toen zei de Here: ‘Ik kan mijn Geest niet voor altijd in de mens laten wonen, nu hij zich zo heeft misdragen. Hij zal voortaan niet ouder worden dan honderdtwintig jaar.’

King James Version
6 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.
3 And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.
