GENESIS Chapter 7, the Biblical Flood Begins

1 And said Jehovah to Noah, Come you and all your house into the coffer, for you I have seen a just one before My face in generation this.
2 From every creature clean will you take to yourself seven by seven, a man and his woman; and the creature that not clean it by two , a man and his woman;
3 of the flying creature of the skies seven by seven, a male and his female, to keep alive seed upon the face of all the earth.
4 For to the days after seven more I will cause to rain on the earth forty days and forty nights, and will blot out among all standing that I have brought forth from off the face of the earth.
5 And did Noah all that charged him Jehovah.
6 Noah was a son of six hundred years, and the flood was waters on the earth.
7 And went in Noah and his sons, and his woman, and women his son's, with him into the coffer from the face of the waters of the flood.
8 Of the creatures clean and creatures that were not clean, of flying creatures, and of everything that creeps on the earth,
9 two by two they came to Noah and into the coffer, male and female, as had charged Jehovah Noah.
10 And it was, after the seven days, that the waters of the flood came into being upon the earth.
11 In year of six hundred years of life Noah's, in the new moon second, in the seventeenth day of the new moon, in day this all the wells of the great deep were cleaved, and the holes of the skies were opened.
12 And was the rain on the earth forty days and forty nights.
13 In same day this entered Noah and Shem, Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's woman and the three women of his sons with them into the coffer;
14 They and every creature after its kind, and every cattle after its kind, and every creeping creature that moves on the earth after its kind, and every flying creature after its kind, every birds of every wing.
15 And went they to Noah into the coffer, two by two of all flesh which in it is the breath of life.
16 So those going in male and female of all flesh, went in as had charged him God; and shut Jehovah after him.
17 And was the flood forty days on the earth, and increased the waters and lifted the coffer, it was raised above the earth.
18 And prevailed the waters and were increased greatly on the earth, and the coffer walked upon the face of the waters.
19 And the waters were strong, exceedingly, exceedingly on the earth, and all the high hills were hidden under all the skies.
20 Fifteen cubits upward were strong the waters, and hid were the hills.
21 And perished all flesh that moved on the earth, and among the winged creature, and among the cattle, and among wild creatures and among creeping things that swarm on the earth, and every man;
22 All which breathed the breath of life, in whose nostrils of all that was on dry land perished.
23 And was wiped away among every standing that was on the face of the earth, of man, to cattle, to creeping things and to flying creatures. They were wiped off from the earth, and was left only Noah and those with him in the coffer.
24 And were strong the waters on the earth fifty and a hundred days.

1 Then the Lord said to Noah, Come into the ark, you and all your household, because I have seen that you are righteous before Me among this generation.
2 You shall take with you seven pair each of every clean animal, a male and his female; two each of animals that are unclean, a male and his female;
3 also seven pair each of flying creatures of the air, a male and his female, to keep the species alive on the face of the earth.
4 For after seven more days I will cause it to rain on the earth forty days and forty nights, and I will blot out among every living creature on the face of the earth that I have brought forth.
5 And Noah did as the Lord had commanded him.
6 Noah was six hundred years of age when the flood waters were on the earth.
7 So Noah , with his sons, his wife, and his son's wives, went into the ark before the waters of the flood.

~
8 Of clean creatures, of unclean creatures, of flying creatures, and of everything that creeps on the earth,
9 in pairs they went to Noah and into the ark, male and female, as God had commanded Noah.
~
10 And the time came, after the seven days, that the waters of the flood came on the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the wells of the great deep were cleaved, and the gates of heaven were opened wide.
12 And rain was on the earth forty days and forty nights.
13 In this same day Noah and Noah's sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and Noah's wife and the three wives of his sons with them went into the ark;
14 They and every creature after its kind, and cattle after its kind, and every creeping thing that moves on the earth, and every winged creature after its kind, small birds of every wing.
~
15 And they went into the ark to Noah, in pairs, of all flesh in which is the breath of life.
16 So those that entered, male and female of all flesh, went in as God had commanded him; and the Lord shut them in.
17 And the flood was on the earth forty days. The waters increased and raised the ark, it was lifted above the earth.
18 And the waters prevailed and greatly increased on the earth, and the ark floated about on the surface of the waters.
19 And the waters were exceedingly violent on the earth, and all the high hills under the heavens were covered.
20 The waters increased strongly fifteen cubits upward, and the hills were covered.
21 And perished all flesh that moved on the earth, of the winged creature, of the cattle, and of wild creatures and of creeping things that swarm on the earth, and all mankind;
~
22 All in whose nostril was the breath of life, and of all on dry land perished.
23 And was wiped away among every living thing that was on the face of the earth, of mankind to four footed creatures, to creeping things and to winged creatures. They were wiped off from the earth, only Noah and those with him in the ark remained.
24 The waters prevailed on the earth one hundred and fifty days.
1 And the Lord said to Noah, Come you and all your household into the ark, for I have seen you to be righteous.
~
2 Of every pure (clean) animal take seven pairs, the male and his female, and a pair of the unpure (unclean) animals, the male and his female.
3 and the birds of the air by seven mated pairs to keep them alive on the earth.
~
4 In seven days I will cause it to rain on the earth for forty days and nights; and among every living creature I have brought forth some will be wiped off the face of the earth.
5 And Noah did as he was commanded.
6 When Noah was 600 years old the waters came on the earth.
~
7 Noah went into the ark with his wife, sons, and the son's wives before the floods came.
~
8 The pure and unpure animals, also birds and creeping animals,
~
~
9 they went in pairs unto Noah in the ark, male and female, as the Lord had commanded.
~
10 Then after seven days the floods started.
~
11 In the 600th year of Noah's life, the seventeenth day of the second month, the wells of the seas were broken up by impact, and the windows of the sky opened up.
~
12 The rain fell for forty days and nights.
13 That day at the start had Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth and their wives entered into the ark.

14 They and all the animals of every kind.

~
15 The animals went to Noah in pairs, all that breathed.
~
16 They went in pairs of all kind as the Lord commanded, and the Lord shut them in.
~
17 And the flood was for forty days on the earth with the waters lifting up the ark.
~
18 The waters prevailed and got very deep and the ark was carried about.
~
19 The waters were violent on the earth, and all the high hills under the sky were covered.
~
20 Fifteen cubits up the waters prevailed, and the hills were covered.
21 And died of all flesh that moved on the land, of birds, of cattle, of wild creatures and of creeping animals, of all those on dry land, and all mankind;
~
~
22 All those with breath in their nostrils, of all on the land perished.
23 They perished among every living creature on the land, they were wiped off the earth; Noah only and those with him in the ark remained alive.
