KJV

19 For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be. 20 And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days.


Verse 19 is sometimes used as an Argument from "Endorsement" for particular interpretations of Genesis because it mentions "the beginning of the creation".
