Genesis 6:3

¶ And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also [is] flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.

And the LORD {H3068} said {H559}, My spirit {H7307} shall not always {H5769} strive {H1777} with man {H120}, for that he also {H1571}{H7683} is flesh {H1320}: yet his days {H3117} shall be an hundred {H3967} and twenty {H6242} years {H8141}.

Adonai said, “My Spirit will not live in human beings forever, for they too are flesh; therefore their life span is to be 120 years.”

So the LORD said, “My Spirit will not contend with man forever, for he is mortal; his days shall be 120 years.”

And Jehovah said, My Spirit shall not strive with man for ever, for that he also is flesh: yet shall his days be a hundred and twenty years.
