Genesis 6:14

Make a ship of gopher wood. You shall make rooms in the ship, and shall seal it inside and outside with pitch.

This is how you shall make it. The length of the ship will be three hundred cubits, its breadth fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits.

Genesis 6:16

You shall make a roof in the ship, and you shall finish it to a cubit upward. You shall set the door of the ship in its side. You shall make it with lower, second, and third levels.

Genesis 6:17

I, even I, do bring the flood of waters on this earth, to destroy all flesh having the breath of life from under the sky. Everything that is in the earth will die.

Genesis 6:18

But I will establish my covenant with you. You shall come into the ship, you, your sons, your wife, and your sons’ wives with you.

Genesis 6:19

Of every living thing of all flesh, you shall bring two of every sort into the ship, to keep them alive with you. They shall be male and female.

Of the birds after their kind, of the livestock after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of every sort shall come to you, to keep them alive.

Genesis 6:21

Take with you of all food that is eaten, and gather it to yourself; and it will be for food for you, and for them.”

Thus Noah did. According to all that God commanded him, so he did.

Genesis 7:1

Yahweh said to Noah, “Come with all of your household into the ship, for I have seen your righteousness before me in this generation.

Genesis 7:2

You shall take seven pairs of every clean animal with you, the male and his female. Of the animals that are not clean, take two, the male and his female.

Genesis 7:3

Also of the birds of the sky, seven and seven, male and female, to keep seed alive on the surface of all the earth.

Genesis 7:4

In seven days, I will cause it to rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights. Every living thing that I have made, I will destroy from the surface of the ground.”

Genesis 7:5

Noah did everything that Yahweh commanded him.

Genesis 7:6

Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters came on the earth.

Genesis 7:7

Noah went into the ship with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives, because of the waters of the flood.

Genesis 7:8

Clean animals, animals that are not clean, birds, and everything that creeps on the ground

Genesis 7:9

went by pairs to Noah into the ship, male and female, as God commanded Noah.

Genesis 7:10

It happened after the seven days, that the waters of the flood came on the earth.

Genesis 7:11

In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the same day all the fountains of the great deep were burst open, and the sky’s windows were opened.

Genesis 7:12

The rain was on the earth forty days and forty nights.

Genesis 7:13

In the same day Noah, and Shem, Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah’s wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, entered into the ship;

Genesis 7:14

they, and every animal after its kind, all the livestock after their kind, every creeping thing that creeps on the earth after its kind, and every bird after its kind, every bird of every sort.

Genesis 7:15

They went to Noah into the ship, by pairs of all flesh with the breath of life in them.

Genesis 7:16

Those who went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God commanded him; and Yahweh shut him in.

Genesis 7:17

The flood was forty days on the earth. The waters increased, and lifted up the ship, and it was lifted up above the earth.

Genesis 7:18

The waters prevailed, and increased greatly on the earth; and the ship floated on the surface of the waters.

Genesis 7:19

The waters prevailed exceedingly on the earth. All the high mountains that were under the whole sky were covered.

Genesis 7:20

The waters prevailed fifteen cubits upward, and the mountains were covered.

Genesis 7:21

All flesh died that moved on the earth, including birds, livestock, animals, every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, and every man.

Genesis 7:22

All in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, of all that was on the dry land, died.

Genesis 7:23

Every living thing was destroyed that was on the surface of the ground, including man, livestock, creeping things, and birds of the sky. They were destroyed from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those who were with him in the ship.

Genesis 7:24

The waters prevailed on the earth one hundred fifty days.

Genesis 8:1

God remembered Noah, all the animals, and all the livestock that were with him in the ship; and God made a wind to pass over the earth. The waters subsided.

Genesis 8:2

The deep’s fountains and the sky’s windows were also stopped, and the rain from the sky was restrained.

Genesis 8:3

The waters receded from the earth continually. After the end of one hundred fifty days the waters decreased.

Genesis 8:4

The ship rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on Ararat’s mountains.

Genesis 8:5

The waters receded continually until the tenth month. In the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.

Genesis 8:6

It happened at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ship which he had made,

Genesis 8:7

and he sent forth a raven. It went back and forth, until the waters were dried up from the earth.

Genesis 8:8

He sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from the surface of the ground,

Genesis 8:9

but the dove found no place to rest her foot, and she returned to him into the ship; for the waters were on the surface of the whole earth. He put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her to him into the ship.

Genesis 8:10

He stayed yet another seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ship.

Genesis 8:11

The dove came back to him at evening, and, behold, in her mouth was an olive leaf plucked off. So Noah knew that the waters were abated from the earth.

Genesis 8:12

He stayed yet another seven days, and sent forth the dove; and she didn’t return to him any more.

Genesis 8:13

It happened in the six hundred first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from the earth. Noah removed the covering of the ship, and looked. He saw that the surface of the ground was dried.

Genesis 8:14

In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.

Genesis 8:15

God spoke to Noah, saying,

Genesis 8:16

“Go out of the ship, you, and your wife, and your sons, and your sons’ wives with you.
