5. The Lord saw that the human beings on the earth were very wicked. He also saw that their thoughts were only about evil all the time.
6. The Lord was sorry he had made human beings on the earth. His heart was filled with pain.
7. So the Lord said, “I will destroy all human beings that I made on the earth. And I will destroy every animal and everything that crawls on the earth. I will also destroy the birds of the air. This is because I am sorry that I have made them.”
8. But Noah pleased the Lord.
