Génesis 6:5-7

5 Al ver el SEÑOR que la maldad del ser humano en la tierra era muy grande, y que todos sus pensamientos tendían siempre hacia el mal,

6 se arrepintió de haber hecho al ser humano en la tierra, y le dolió en el corazón.

7 Entonces dijo: «Voy a borrar de la tierra al ser humano que he creado. Y haré lo mismo con los animales, los reptiles y las aves del cielo. ¡Me arrepiento de haberlos creado!»
