Scene 1 · Intermediate
Dio vedeva quanto fosse grande la malvagità degli esseri umani sulla terra: i loro pensieri e le loro intenzioni erano rivolti continuamente al male. Si è pentito di aver creato l’umanità e ne ha provato un profondo dolore.
God saw how great the wickedness of human beings on earth was: their thoughts and intentions were constantly turned toward evil. He regretted creating humanity and felt deep sorrow.
Allora Dio ha detto: «Cancellerò dalla faccia della terra gli esseri umani che ho creato. Distruggerò anche gli animali, le creature che strisciano e gli uccelli del cielo, perché mi pento di averli creati».
Then God said: “I will wipe from the face of the earth the human beings I have created. I will also destroy the animals, the creatures that crawl, and the birds of the sky, because I regret having created them.”
Noè, però, aveva trovato il favore di Dio.
Noah, however, had found favor with God.
