After the flood, the life spans began to shrink dramatically (compare Genesis 5 with Genesis 11) and eventually shrank to below 120 (Genesis 11:24).
Baada ya mafuriko, miaka ya maisha ilianza kupungua kwa kasi (linganisha Mwanzo 5 na Mwanzo 11) na hatimaye imepungua na kuwa chini ya 120 (Mwanzo 11:24).
