Commentary on Genesis John Calvin (continued)
Chapter 6
Genesis 6:1-22
1. And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
1. Et fuit, quum coepis sent homines multiplicari in superficie terrae, filiaeque natae essent eis:
2. That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.
2. Tunc viderunt filii Dei filias hominum quod pulchrae essent: et acceperunt sibi uxores ex omnibus quas elegerant.
3. And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.
3. Et dixit Jehovan, Non desceptabit Spiritus meus cum homine in saeculum, eo quod sit etiam ipse caro: et erunt dies ejus centum et viginti anni.
