21 And when the Lord smelled the qpleasing aroma, the Lord said in his heart, r“I will never again curse1 the ground because of man, for sthe intention of man’s heart is evil from his youth. tNeither will I ever again strike down every living creature as I have done.
11 I establish my covenant with you, fthat never again shall all flesh be cut off by the waters of the flood, and never again shall there be a flood to destroy the earth.”
15 I will jremember my covenant that is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh. And the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.
9 “This is like the days of Noah1 to me:
xas I swore that the waters of Noah
should no more go over the earth,
so I have sworn that I will not be angry with you,
and will not rebuke you.
