And God said to Noah, "I have determined to make an end of all flesh, for the earth is filled with violence through them. Behold, I will destroy them with the earth."
Genesis 6:13

All life on earth suffered in the Flood for man's sins. Fathers, rulers, employers take note. You have a responsibility to all those under your authority to hold yourself to higher standards.

But I will establish my covenant with you, and you shall come into the ark, you, your sons, your wife, and your sons' wives with you.
Genesis 6:18

Those under Noah's authority were saved because of his faithfulness. Fathers, rulers, employers take note. By your obedience to God, you have the power to elevate those under your care.
