Sirach 44:16-18
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
Enoch
16 Enoch pleased the Lord and was taken up,
an example of repentance to all generations.
Noah
17 Noah was found perfect and righteous;
in the time of wrath he kept the race alive;[a]
therefore a remnant was left on the earth
when the flood came.
18 Everlasting covenants were made with him
that all flesh should never again be blotted out by a flood.
