By faith Noah, after he was warned about what was not yet seen and motivated by godly fear, built an ark to deliver his family. By faith he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.
who in the past were disobedient, when God patiently waited in the days of Noah while the ark was being prepared. In it a few #– #that is, eight people , #– #were saved through water.
Seek the Lord, all you humble of the earth, who carry out what he commands. Seek righteousness, seek humility; perhaps you will be concealed on the day of the Lord’s anger.
Even if these three men #– #Noah, Daniel, and Job #– #were in it, they would rescue only themselves by their righteousness.’ This is the declaration of the Lord God.
