⁵ And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagining of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

⁶ And the Lord repented that He had made man on the earth, and it grieved Him in His heart.

⁷ And the Lord said, “I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth, both man and beast, and the creeping thing and the fowls of the air, for I repent that I have made them.”

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