7. Formal Translation So the LORD {Yahweh, Righteous Judge} said, “I will wipe out the human beings whom I have created from the surface of the earth—from man to animal to creeping thing, and even to the birds of the heavens—because I regret that I have made them.” |
7. Dynamic Translation Then the LORD {Yahweh, Grieved Creator} said, “I will wipe humanity from the earth’s surface—from people to animals, to crawling creatures, and even to the birds in the sky. I am sorry that I made them.” |
