1The LORD said to Noah , “Come with all of your household into the ship , for I have seen your righteousness before me in this generation .
2You 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 .
3Also of the birds of the sky , seven and seven , male and female , to keep seed alive on the surface of all the earth .
4In seven days , I will cause it to rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights . I will destroy every living thing that I have made from the surface of the ground .”
5Noah did everything that the LORD commanded him .
6Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters came on the earth.
7Noah went into the ship with his sons , his wife, and his sons ’ wives, because of the floodwaters .
8Clean animals, unclean animals, birds , and everything that creeps on the ground
9went by pairs to Noah into the ship , male and female , as God commanded Noah .
10After the seven days , the floodwaters came on the earth.
11In 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 open , and the sky ’s windows opened .
12It rained on the earth forty days and forty nights .
13In 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 —
14they , 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 .
15Pairs from all flesh with the breath of life in them went into the ship to Noah .
16Those who went in , went in male and female of all flesh , as God commanded him ; then the LORD shut him in .
17The flood was forty days on the earth. The waters increased , and lifted up the ship , and it was lifted up above the earth.
18The waters rose , and increased greatly on the earth; and the ship floated on the surface of the waters .
19The waters rose very high on the earth . All the high mountains that were under the whole sky were covered .
20The waters rose fifteen cubits higher , and the mountains were covered .[#7:20 A cubit is the length from the tip of the middle finger to the elbow on a man’s arm, or about 18 inches or 46 centimetres.]
21All flesh died that moved on the earth, including birds , livestock, animals , every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, and every man .
22All on the dry land , in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life , died .
23Every 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 .
24The waters flooded the earth one hundred and fifty days .
