1: Then the LORD said to Noah, "Go into the ark, you and
all your household, for I have seen that you are righteous before me in
this generation.
2: Take with you seven pairs of all clean animals, the
male and his mate; and a pair of the animals that are not clean, the male
and his mate;
3: and seven pairs of the birds of the air also, male
and female, to keep their kind alive upon the face of all the earth.
4: For in seven days I will send rain upon the earth
forty days and forty nights; and every living thing that I have made I
will blot out from the face of the ground."
5: And Noah did all that the LORD had commanded him.
6: Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters
came upon the earth.
7: And Noah and his sons and his wife and his sons' wives
with him went into the ark, to escape the waters of the flood.
8: Of clean animals, and of animals that are not clean,
and of birds, and of everything that creeps on the ground,
9: two and two, male and female, went into the ark with
Noah, as God had commanded Noah.
10: And after seven days the waters of the flood came
upon the earth.
11: In the six hundredth year of Noah's life,
in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all
the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the windows of the heavens
were opened.
12: And rain fell upon the earth forty days and forty
nights.
13: On the very same day Noah and his sons, Shem and
Ham and Japheth, and Noah's wife and the three wives
of his sons with them entered the ark,
14: they and every beast according to its kind, and all
the cattle according to their kinds, and every creeping thing that creeps
on the earth according to its kind, and every bird according to its kind,
every bird of every sort.
15: They went into the ark with Noah, two and two of
all flesh in which there was the breath of life.
16: And they that entered, male and female of all flesh,
went in as God had commanded him; and the LORD shut him in.
17: The flood continued forty days upon the earth; and
the waters increased, and bore up the ark, and it rose high above the earth.
18: The waters prevailed and increased greatly upon the
earth; and the ark floated on the face of the waters.
19: And the waters prevailed so mightily upon the earth
that all the high mountains under the whole heaven were covered;
20: the waters prevailed above the mountains, covering
them fifteen cubits deep.
21: And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, birds,
cattle, beasts, all swarming creatures that swarm upon the earth, and every
man;
22: everything on the dry land in whose nostrils was
the breath of life died.
23: He blotted out every living thing that was upon the
face of the ground, man and animals and creeping
things and birds of the air; they were blotted out from
the earth. Only Noah was left, and those that were with him in the ark.
24: And the waters prevailed upon the earth a hundred
and fifty days.
