Genesis 6:5-7

Easy-to-Read Version

⁵ The Lord saw that the people on the earth were very evil. He saw that they thought only about evil things all the time. ⁶ The Lord was sorry that he had made people on the earth. It made him very sad in his heart. ⁷ So the Lord said, “I will destroy all the people I created on the earth. I will destroy every person and every animal and everything that crawls on the earth. And I will destroy all the birds in the air, because I am sorry that I have made them.”
