Noah Pleases God

⁹ This is the genealogy of Noah. ^(A)Noah was a just man, ^[a]perfect in his generations. Noah ^(B)walked with God.

⁶ And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.

⁷ By faith ^(A)Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, ^(B)prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of ^(C)the righteousness which is according to faith.

⁵ and did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly;

The Great Flood^(A)

7 Then the ^(B)Lord said to Noah, ^(C)“Come into the ark, you and all your household, because I have seen that ^(D)you are righteous before Me in this generation.

²⁴ And ^(A)Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God ^(B)took him.

¹¹ But that no one is ^[a]justified by the law in the sight of God is evident, for ^(A)“the just shall live by faith.”

The Sign of the Covenant^(A)

17 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord ^(B)appeared to Abram and said to him, ^(C)“I am ^[a]Almighty God; ^(D)walk before Me and be ^(E)blameless.

²² After he begot Methuselah, Enoch ^(A)walked with God three hundred years, and had sons and daughters.

^14 (A)Even if these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they would deliver only themselves ^(B)by their righteousness,” says the Lord God.
