1. Mosebok 6,1
Da menneskene begynte å bli mange på jorden, og de fikk døtre,
2 så Guds sønner at menneskenes døtre var vakre, og de tok til koner dem de valgte.
3 Da erklærte Herren: “Min Ånd skal ikke streve med menneskene for alltid, for de er kjøtt; deres levetid skal være 120 år.”
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
