Midrash su Isaia 43:13

"He shatters [yaro'a] mighty men without number and sets others in their place (Job 34:24)". The men of the generation of the Flood did evil [here'u] in their evil deeds. "Without number": there was no number in their evil deeds. "And sets others in their place": these were the sons of Noah: "The sons of Noah...were Shem, Ham, and Japheth". "Ever since day was, I am He; None can deliver from My hand (Isaiah 43:13)": the nations of the world. "When I act, who can reverse it? (Isaiah 43:13)": all the deeds and thoughts which I did with the generation of the Flood, who said to me: "You did not act appropriately"? But Noah was brought in in peace and went out in peace: "The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were". "Ham being the father of Canaan": the source of the decline. "These three were the sons of Noah, and from these the whole world branched out [naftzah] (Genesis 9:19)": to what is this verse like? To a great fish who spawned [naftzah] eggs and filled the earth.
