1
And Yahuah said to Noach, “Come, you and all your house, into the ark, because you I have seen righteous before Me in this generation.
2
From every clean beast, take for yourself seven and seven, ish and his female; and from the beast that is not clean, two, ish and his female.
3
Also from the flying creatures of the heavens, seven and seven, male and female, to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.
4
For in seven more days I will cause rain to fall upon the earth forty days and forty nights, and I will wipe away from the face of the ground every living thing that I have made.”
5
And Noach did according to all that Yahuah commanded him.
6
And Noach was six hundred years old when the floodwaters came upon the earth.
7
And Noach entered the ark, and his sons, and his ishah, and the women of his sons with him, because of the waters of the flood.
8
From the clean beasts, and from the beasts that were not clean, and from the flying creatures, and from everything that moves upon the ground,
9
two by two they came to Noach into the ark, male and female, according to what Elohim commanded Noach.
10
And it came to pass after seven days that the waters of the flood came upon the earth.
11
In the six hundredth year of the life of Noach, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month—on that day all the fountains of the great deep were broken open, and the openings of the heavens were opened.
12
And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
13
On that very day Noach entered the ark, and Shem, and Cham, and Yafet, the sons of Noach, and the ishah of Noach, and the three women of his sons with them;
14
they, and every living creature according to its kind, and all livestock according to its kind, and every moving creature that moves upon the earth according to its kind, and every flying creature according to its kind, every bird, everything winged.
15
And they came to Noach into the ark, two by two from all flesh in which was the breath of life.
16
And those that entered, male and female from all flesh, entered according to what Elohim commanded him. And Yahuah shut him in.
17
And the flood was upon the earth forty days. And the waters increased and lifted the ark, and it rose above the earth.
18
And the waters prevailed and increased greatly upon the earth, and the ark moved upon the face of the waters.
19
And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth, and all the high mountains beneath all the heavens were covered.
20
Fifteen cubits upward the waters prevailed, and the mountains were covered.
21
And all flesh moving upon the earth expired: flying creatures, livestock, living creatures, every swarming thing that swarms upon the earth, and all Adam.
22
Everything in whose nostrils was the breath of the Ruach of life—everything upon the dry ground—died.
23
And every living thing was wiped away from upon the face of the ground: from Adam to beast, to moving creature, and to the flying creatures of the heavens. They were wiped away from the earth. And only Noach remained, and those who were with him in the ark.
24
And the waters prevailed upon the earth one hundred and fifty days.
