(7) By believing faith, Noach (Rest; Comfort) warned concerning things not yet seen, having become reverent to prepare an ark for the salvation of his household. Through which he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness declared according to believing faith.
The F.O.G
[7] Faith moved Noah to take God's warning about unseen future events with utmost seriousness. Compelled by holy fear and trust, he invested years building an enormous ark to save his family. His faith-filled obedience stood as a stark indictment of the world's unbelief, making him an heir of the righteousness that comes through faith.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
By faith Noah, having been divinely warned concerning the things not yet seen, having feared, did prepare an ark to the salvation of his house, through which he did condemn the world, and of the righteousness according to faith he became heir.
