After Noah was 500 years old, he had three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

But the LORD was pleased with Noah.

This is the story of Noah. He had three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Noah had no faults and was the only good man of his time. He lived in fellowship with God,

The LORD said to Noah, "Go into the boat with your whole family; I have found that you are the only one in all the world who does what is right.

and died at the age of 950.

"In the time of Noah I promised never again to flood the earth. Now I promise not to be angry with you again; I will not reprimand or punish you.

The mountains and hills may crumble, but my love for you will never end; I will keep forever my promise of peace." So says the LORD who loves you.

Even if those three men, Noah, Danel, and Job, were living there, their goodness would save only their own lives." The Sovereign LORD has spoken.

The coming of the Son of Man will be like what happened in the time of Noah.

In the days before the flood people ate and drank, men and women married, up to the very day Noah went into the boat;

the son of Cainan, the son of Arphaxad, the son of Shem, the son of Noah, the son of Lamech,

As it was in the time of Noah so shall it be in the days of the Son of Man.

It was faith that made Noah hear God's warnings about things in the future that he could not see. He obeyed God and built a boat in which he and his family were saved. As a result, the world was condemned, and Noah received from God the righteousness that comes by faith.

God did not spare the ancient world, but brought the flood on the world of godless people; the only ones he saved were Noah, who preached righteousness, and seven other people.

After Noah was 500 years old, he had three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

(SEE 6:9)

The sons of Noah who went out of the boat were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. (Ham was the father of Canaan.)
