— je me retirerai, dit-il, sur une montagne qui me mettra l’abri des eaux. Noé lui dit : Nul ne sera aujourd’hui à l’abri des arrêts de Dieu, excepté celui dont il aura eu pitié. Les flots les séparèrent ; et le fils de Noé fut submergé.

Hij antwoordde: Ik wil op een berg gaan, die mij voor het water zal behoeden. Noach antwooordde: Heden is er geene zekerheid voor Gods besluit, uitgenomen voor hem, voor wien hij genade zal hebben. En eene golf ging tusschen hen door, en hij was een van hen die verdronken.

Mi ritirerò, disse, sopra una montagna che mi metterà al sicuro dalle acque. Noè gli disse: Niuno sarà oggi in salvo contro gli ordini di Dio, meno che quegli di cui egli avrà avuto compassione. Le onde li separarono, ed il figlio di Noè fu sommerso.
