ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
10
And it came to pass after seven
days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
11
In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the
month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven
were opened.
12
And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
13
In the selfsame day
entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah’s wife, and the three
wives of his sons with them, into the ark;
14
They, and every beast after his kind, and all the cattle
after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind, and every fowl
after his kind, every bird of every sort.
15
And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of
all flesh, wherein
is
the breath of life.
16
And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh,
as God had commanded him: and the L
ORD
shut him in.
17
And the flood was forty days upon the
earth; and the waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lift up above the earth.
18
And the
waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the
waters.
19
And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that
were
under the whole heaven, were covered.
20
Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the
mountains were covered.
21
And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle,
and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man:
22
All in
whose nostrils
was
the breath of life, of all that
was
in the dry
land,
died.
23
And every living
substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the
creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only
remained
alive,
and they that
were
with him in the ark.
24
And the waters prevailed upon the earth
an hundred and fifty days.
CHAPTER 8
And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that
was
with him in the ark:
and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters asswaged;
2
The fountains also of the
deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained;
3
And the
waters returned from off the earth continually: and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the
waters were abated.
4
And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month,
upon the mountains of Ararat.
5
And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the
tenth
month,
on the first
day
of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.
6
And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which
he had made:
7
And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried
up from off the earth.
8
Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from
off the face of the ground;
9
But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned
unto him into the ark, for the waters
were
on the face of the whole earth: then he put forth his hand,
