Genesis 6:12-14

New International Reader's Version

¹² God saw how sinful the earth had become. All its people were living very sinful lives. ¹³ So God said to Noah, “I am going to put an end to everyone. They have filled the earth with their harmful acts. I am certainly going to destroy them and the earth. ¹⁴ So make yourself an ark out of cypress wood. Make rooms in it. Cover it with tar inside and out.
