Genesis 6:5-8

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁵ Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that ^(A)every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. ^6 (B)The Lord was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was ^(C)grieved ^[a]in His heart. ⁷ The Lord said, “^(D)I will blot out man whom I have created from the face of the land, from man to animals to creeping things and to birds of the ^[b]sky; for ^(E)I am sorry that I have made them.” ⁸ But ^(F)Noah ^(G)found favor in the eyes of the Lord.
