Genesis 6:7-9

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁷ So the Lord said, ‘I will blot out from the earth the human beings I have created—people together with animals and creeping things and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them.’ ⁸ But Noah found favour in the sight of the Lord.

Noah Pleases God

⁹ These are the descendants of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless in his generation; Noah walked with God.
