Genesis 6:1-4 (Holman Christian Standard)
Sons of God and Daughters of Men
1 When mankind began to multiply on the earth and daughters were born to them, 2 the sons of Goda saw that the daughters of manb were beautiful, and they took any they chose as wivesc for themselves.d 3 And the Lord said, "My Spirit will not remaine withf mankind forever, because they are corrupt.g Their days will be 120 years." 4 The Nephilimh were on the earth both in those days and afterwards, when the sons of God came to the daughters of man, who bore children to them. They were the powerful men of old, the famous men.Holman Christian Standard Bible ® Copyright © 2003, 2002, 2000, 1999 by Holman Bible Publishers. Used by permission. All rights reserved.
