Genesis 7:4

Context
7:4 For in seven days 1  I will cause it to rain 2  on the earth for forty days and forty nights, and I will wipe from the face of the ground every living thing that I have made.”

Genesis 18:24

Context
18:24 What if there are fifty godly people in the city? Will you really wipe it out and not spare 3  the place for the sake of the fifty godly people who are in it?

1 tn Heb “for seven days yet,” meaning “after [or “in”] seven days.”

2 tn The Hiphil participle מַמְטִיר (mamtir, “cause to rain”) here expresses the certainty of the act in the imminent future.

3 tn Heb “lift up,” perhaps in the sense of “bear with” (cf. NRSV “forgive”).
