The Lord then said to Noah,“ Go into the ark, you and your whole family, because I have found you righteous in this generation.

Then the Lord said to Noah,“ Go into the ark, you and all your household, for I have seen that you are righteous before me in this generation.

When everything was ready, the Lord said to Noah,“ Go into the boat with all your family, for among all the people of the earth, I can see that you alone are righteous.

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.

Then the Lord said to Noah,“ Enter the ark, you and all your household, for you alone I have seen to be righteous before Me in this generation.

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.

And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.

The LORD said to Noah,“ Come into the ark, you and all your household, for I consider you godly among this generation.

Yahweh said to Noah,“ Come with all of your household into the ship, for I have seen your righteousness before me in this generation.

Here is the story of Noah’s family line. Noah was a godly man. He was without blame among the people of his time. He walked faithfully with God.

On that same day Noah entered the ark together with his sons Shem, Ham and Japheth. Noah’s wife and the wives of his three sons also entered it.

Remember how it was in the days of Noah. It will be the same when the Son of Man comes.In the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking. They were getting married. They were giving their daughters to be married. They did all those things right up to the day Noah entered the ark.They knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be when the Son of Man comes.

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.God judged the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. He burned them to ashes. He made them an example of what is going to happen to ungodly people.God saved Lot, a man who did what was right. Lot was shocked by the evil conduct of people who didn’t obey God’s laws.That good man lived among them day after day. He saw and heard the evil things they were doing. They were breaking God’s laws. And the godly spirit of Lot was deeply troubled.Since all this is true, then the Lord knows how to save godly people. He knows how to keep them safe in times of testing. The Lord also knows how to keep ungodly people under guard. He will do so until the day they will be judged and punished.

He and his sons entered the ark. His wife and his sons’ wives went with them. They entered the ark to escape the waters of the flood.

Long ago these spirits did not obey. That was when God was patient while Noah was building the ark. And only a few people went into the ark. In fact, there were only eight. Those eight people were saved through water.

“ Remember how it was in the days of Noah. It will be the same when the Son of Man comes.

Noah had faith. So he built an ark to save his family. He built it because of his great respect for God. God had warned him about things that could not yet be seen. Because of his faith Noah showed the world that it was guilty. Because of his faith he was considered right with God.

Then you will be pure and without blame. You will be children of God without fault among sinful and evil people. Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky.You will shine as you hold on tight to the word of life. Then I will be able to boast about you on the day Christ returns. I can be happy that I didn’t run or work for nothing.

The Lord said to him,“ Go all through Jerusalem. Look for those who are sad and sorry about all the things being done there. I hate those things. Put a mark on the foreheads of those people.”I heard him speak to the six men. He said,“ Follow him through the city. Do not show any pity or concern.Kill the old men and women, the young men and women, and the children. But do not touch anyone who has the mark. Start at my temple.” So they began with the old men who were in front of the temple.

So look to him, all you people in the land who worship him faithfully. You always do what he commands you to do. Continue to do what is right. Don’t be proud. Then perhaps the Lord will keep you safe on the day he pours out his anger on the world.

The promise is for you and your children. It is also for all who are far away. It is for all whom the Lord our God will choose.”

Tell those who do what is right that things will go well with them. They will enjoy the results of the good things they’ve done.But how terrible it will be for those who do what is evil! Trouble is about to fall on them. They will be paid back for the evil things they’ve done.

My people, go into your houses. Shut the doors behind you. Hide yourselves for a little while. Do it until the Lord’ s anger is over.He is coming from the place where he lives. He will punish the people of the earth for their sins. The blood spilled on the earth will be brought out into the open. The ground will no longer hide those who have been killed.

The name of the Lord is like a strong tower. Godly people run to it and are safe.

Blessings are like crowns on the heads of those who do right. But the trouble caused by what sinners say destroys them.The names of those who do right are used in blessings. But the names of those who do wrong will rot.

But the Lord looks with favor on those who respect him. He watches over those who put their hope in his faithful love.He watches over them to save them from death. He wants to keep them alive when there is no food in the land.

Whoever rests in the shadow of the Most High God will be kept safe by the Mighty One.I will say about the Lord,“ He is my place of safety. He is like a fort to me. He is my God. I trust in him.”He will certainly save you from hidden traps and from deadly sickness.He will cover you with his wings. Under the feathers of his wings you will find safety. He is faithful. He will keep you safe like a shield or a tower.You won’t have to be afraid of the terrors that come during the night. You won’t have to fear the arrows that come at you during the day.You won’t have to be afraid of the sickness that attacks in the darkness. You won’t have to fear the plague that destroys at noon.A thousand may fall dead at your side. Ten thousand may fall near your right hand. But no harm will come to you.You will see with your own eyes how God punishes sinful people.Suppose you say,“ The Lord is the one who keeps me safe.” Suppose you let the Most High God be like a home to you.Then no harm will come to you. No terrible plague will come near your tent.

From six troubles he will save you. Even if you are in trouble seven times, no harm will come to you.When there isn’t enough food, God will keep you from dying. When you go into battle, he won’t let a sword strike you down.He will keep you safe from words that can hurt you. You won’t need to be afraid when everything is being destroyed.You will laugh when things are being destroyed. You will enjoy life even when there isn’t enough food. You won’t be afraid of wild animals.You will make a covenant with the stones in the fields. They won’t keep your crops from growing. Even wild animals will be at peace with you.You will know that the tent you live in is secure. You will check out your property. You will see that nothing is missing.

Anyone who shows respect for the Lord has a strong tower. It will be a safe place for their children.

Anyone who lives without blame walks safely. But anyone who takes a crooked path will get caught.

Wealth isn’t worth anything when God judges you. But doing what is right saves you from death.The ways of honest people are made straight because they do what is right. But those who do what is wrong are brought down by their own sins.Godly people are saved by doing what is right. But those who aren’t faithful are trapped by evil longings.Hopes placed in human beings will die with them. Everything their power promised comes to nothing.Those who do right are saved from trouble. But trouble comes on those who do wrong.
