Concerning the deliverance of the patriarchs Noah and Lot, we read at 2 Peter 2: 5 - 7: “[God] did not hold back from punishing an ancient world, but kept Noah, a preacher of righteousness, safe with seven others when he brought a deluge upon a world of ungodly people; and by reducing the cities Sodom and Gomorrah to ashes he condemned them, setting a pattern for ungodly persons of things to come; and he delivered righteous Lot, who was greatly distressed by the indulgence of the law - defying people in loose conduct. ”
इन दो वाकयों के बारे में 2 पतरस 2: 5 - 7 कहता है: “[परमेश्‍वर] नूह के ज़माने की दुनिया को भी सज़ा देने से पीछे न हटा, मगर जब वह भक्‍तिहीन लोगों की उस पुरानी दुनिया पर जलप्रलय लाया, तो नेकी के प्रचारक नूह को सात और लोगों के साथ बचा लिया ।
