They were snatched away in the prime of life, the foundations of their lives washed away.

他们未到死期，忽然除灭；根基毁坏，好像被江河冲去。

他们未到时候就被抓去；他们的根基被江河冲去。

他们未到时候就被抓去；他们的根基被江河冲去。

他们死期未到便已夭逝，他们的根基被洪涛卷走。

他们未到时候，就被抓去，他们的根基被洪水冲去。

他們未到死期，忽然除滅；根基毀壞，好像被江河沖去。

他們未到時候就被抓去；他們的根基被江河沖去。

他們未到時候就被抓去；他們的根基被江河沖去。

他們死期未到便已夭逝，他們的根基被洪濤捲走。

他們未到時候，就被抓去，他們的根基被洪水沖去。

他們未到死期就被攫去；他們的根基被沖瀉如河流：

彼未及期而見奪、其基被衝若溪流、

不期大河忽決、而惡人與室廬悉遭淹沒。

彼未及期而見除、洪水沖沒其基、

They were carried off before their time, their foundations washed away by a flood.

They were carried off even before they died. Their foundations were washed away by a flood.

They were snatched away before their time; their foundation was washed away.

They were snatched away before their time, and their foundations were washed away by a river.

Who were snatched away before their time, Whose foundations were washed away by a river?

Who were cut down before their time, Whose foundations were swept away by a flood?

Who were snatched away before their time, Whose foundation was poured out as a stream,

They were snatched away before their time, and their foundations were washed away by a river.

Which were cut down out of time, whose foundation was overflown with a flood:

men who were carried off before their time, when the flood was poured out on their foundations?

who were snatched away before their time, whose foundation was poured out as a stream,

They will be cut down in the prime of life; their branches will never again be green.

“ When the Son of Man returns, it will be like it was in Noah’s day.In those days before the flood, the people were enjoying banquets and parties and weddings right up to the time Noah entered his boat.People didn’t realize what was going to happen until the flood came and swept them all away. That is the way it will be when the Son of Man comes.

For forty days the floodwaters grew deeper, covering the ground and lifting the boat high above the earth.As the waters rose higher and higher above the ground, the boat floated safely on the surface.Finally, the water covered even the highest mountains on the earth,rising more than twenty two feet above the highest peaks.All the living things on earth died— birds, domestic animals, wild animals, small animals that scurry along the ground, and all the people.Everything that breathed and lived on dry land died.God wiped out every living thing on the earth— people, livestock, small animals that scurry along the ground, and the birds of the sky. All were destroyed. The only people who survived were Noah and those with him in the boat.And the floodwaters covered the earth for 150 days.

So he went and preached to the spirits in prison—those who disobeyed God long ago when God waited patiently while Noah was building his boat. Only eight people were saved from drowning in that terrible flood.

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.

When Noah was 600 years old, on the seventeenth day of the second month, all the underground waters erupted from the earth, and the rain fell in mighty torrents from the sky.

But I cried to him,“ O my God, who lives forever, don’t take my life while I am so young!

But you, O God, will send the wicked down to the pit of destruction. Murderers and liars will die young, but I am trusting you to save me.

But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’t obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand.When the rains and floods come and the winds beat against that house, it will collapse with a mighty crash.”

On the other hand, don’t be too wicked either. Don’t be a fool! Why die before your time?

as water wears away the stones and floods wash away the soil, so you destroy people’s hope.
