1 tn Heb “for you I see [as] godly before me in this generation.” The direct object (“you”) is placed first in the clause to give it prominence. The verb “to see” here signifies God’s evaluative discernment.

2 tn Heb “On that very day Noah entered, and Shem and Ham and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and the wife of Noah, and the three wives of his sons with him into the ark.”

3 tn The verb “entered” is not in the Hebrew text, but is supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

4 tn Heb “every bird, every wing.”

5 tn Heb “two two” meaning “in twos.”

6 tn Heb “flesh.”
