and if He didn’t spare the ancient world, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others, when He brought a flood on the world of the ungodly;

神也没有宽容上古的世代，曾叫洪水临到那不敬虔的世代，却保护了传义道的挪亚一家八口。

既然上帝也没有宽容上古的世界，曾叫洪水临到那不敬虔的世界，只保护了报公义信息的挪亚一家八口；

既然神也没有宽容上古的世界，曾叫洪水临到那不敬虔的世界，只保护了报公义信息的挪亚一家八口；

上帝也没有容忍远古的世代，曾用洪水淹灭了世上不敬虔的恶人，只留下传讲上帝公义的挪亚和他的七位家人。

神也没有姑息上古的世界，反而使洪水临到那不敬虔的世人，只保存了传义道的挪亚一家八口。

既然神也没有顾惜上古的世界，使洪水临到那不敬神的世界，只保守了义的传道者挪亚一家八口；

神也沒有寬容上古的世代，曾叫洪水臨到那不敬虔的世代，卻保護了傳義道的挪亞一家八口。

既然上帝也沒有寬容上古的世界，曾叫洪水臨到那不敬虔的世界，只保護了報公義信息的挪亞一家八口；

既然神也沒有寬容上古的世界，曾叫洪水臨到那不敬虔的世界，只保護了報公義信息的挪亞一家八口；

上帝也沒有容忍遠古的世代，曾用洪水淹滅了世上不敬虔的惡人，只留下傳講上帝公義的挪亞和他的七位家人。

神也沒有姑息上古的世界，反而使洪水臨到那不敬虔的世人，只保存了傳義道的挪亞一家八口。

他既不愛惜上古的世代，反而引進了洪水來滅不虔之人的世代，只保守着正義的報信者第八個人挪亞。

既然神也沒有顧惜上古的世界，使洪水臨到那不敬神的世界，只保守了義的傳道者挪亞一家八口；

又不惜上古之世、降洪水於不虔者、惟存宣義之挪亞八人、

先古之世、其俗澆漓、為上帝所責、災以洪水、惟傳道義之挪亞、暨其眷聚八人得救、

亦未惜先古之世、以洪水罰彼不虔敬之惡世、惟救傳義道之挪亞等八人、

古時人欲橫流、天主亦不惜使洪水氾濫、僅有宣揚道義之諾厄及同伴七人得濟。

if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;

God did not spare the world’s ungodly people long ago. He brought the flood on them. But Noah preached about the right way to live. God kept him safe. He also saved seven others.

if he did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly;

And God did not spare the ancient world— except for Noah and the seven others in his family. Noah warned the world of God’s righteous judgment. So God protected Noah when he destroyed the world of ungodly people with a vast flood.

and if he didn’t spare the ancient world, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others, when he brought the flood on the world of the ungodly;

and did not spare the ancient world, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when He brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly;

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;

and spared not the ancient world, but preserved Noah with seven others, a preacher of righteousness, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly;

And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth[ person], a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;

and if he did not spare the ancient world, but did protect Noah, a herald of righteousness, along with seven others, when God brought a flood on an ungodly world,

and didn’t spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah with seven others, a preacher of righteousness, when he brought a flood on the world of the ungodly;

Through these waters the world of that time perished when it was flooded.

By faith Noah, after he was warned about what was not yet seen and motivated by godly fear, built an ark to deliver his family. By faith he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.

“ Just as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be in the days of the Son of Man:People went on eating, drinking, marrying and giving in marriage until the day Noah boarded the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.

In that state He also went and made a proclamation to the spirits in prisonwho in the past were disobedient, when God patiently waited in the days of Noah while an ark was being prepared. In it a few— that is, eight people— were saved through water.

And Enoch, in the seventh generation from Adam, prophesied about them: Look! The Lord comes with thousands of His holy onesto execute judgment on all and to convict them of all their ungodly acts that they have done in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things ungodly sinners have said against Him.

As the days of Noah were, so the coming of the Son of Man will be.For in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day Noah boarded the ark.They didn’t know until the flood came and swept them all away. So this is the way the coming of the Son of Man will be:

Will you continue on the ancient path that wicked men have walked?They were snatched away before their time, and their foundations were washed away by a river.

Then the Lord said to Noah,“ Enter the ark, you and all your household, for I have seen that you alone are righteous before Me in this generation.You are to take with you seven pairs, a male and its female, of all the clean animals, and two of the animals that are not clean, a male and its female,and seven pairs, male and female, of the birds of the sky— in order to keep offspring alive on the face of the whole earth.Seven days from now I will make it rain on the earth 40 days and 40 nights, and I will wipe off from the face of the earth every living thing I have made.”And Noah did everything that the Lord commanded him.Noah was 600 years old when the flood came and water covered the earth.So Noah, his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives entered the ark because of the waters of the flood.From the clean animals, unclean animals, birds, and every creature that crawls on the ground,two of each, male and female, entered the ark with Noah, just as God had commanded him.Seven days later the waters of the flood came on the earth.In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the sources of the watery depths burst open, the floodgates of the sky were opened,and the rain fell on the earth 40 days and 40 nights.On that same day Noah along with his sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, Noah’s wife, and his three sons’ wives entered the ark with him.They entered it with all the wildlife according to their kinds, all livestock according to their kinds, the creatures that crawl on the earth according to their kinds, all birds, every fowl, and everything with wings according to their kinds.Two of all flesh that has the breath of life in it entered the ark with Noah.Those that entered, male and female of all flesh, entered just as God had commanded him. Then the Lord shut him in.The flood continued for 40 days on the earth; the waters increased and lifted up the ark so that it rose above the earth.The waters surged and increased greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the water.Then the waters surged even higher on the earth, and all the high mountains under the whole sky were covered.The mountains were covered as the waters surged above them more than 20 feet.Every creature perished— those that crawl on the earth, birds, livestock, wildlife, and those that swarm on the earth, as well as all mankind.Everything with the breath of the spirit of life in its nostrils— everything on dry land died.He wiped out every living thing that was on the surface of the ground, from mankind to livestock, to creatures that crawl, to the birds of the sky, and they were wiped off the earth. Only Noah was left, and those that were with him in the ark.And the waters surged on the earth 150 days.

When mankind began to multiply on the earth and daughters were born to them,the sons of God saw that the daughters of mankind were beautiful, and they took any they chose as wives for themselves.And the Lord said,“ My Spirit will not remain with mankind forever, because they are corrupt. Their days will be 120 years.”The Nephilim were on the earth both in those days and afterward, when the sons of God came to the daughters of mankind, who bore children to them. They were the powerful men of old, the famous men.When the Lord saw that man’s wickedness was widespread on the earth and that every scheme his mind thought of was nothing but evil all the time,the Lord regretted that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart.Then the Lord said,“ I will wipe off from the face of the earth mankind, whom I created, together with the animals, creatures that crawl, and birds of the sky— for I regret that I made them.”Noah, however, found favor in the sight of the Lord.
