< Genesis 7 >
1 And he said Yahweh to Noah go you and all household your into the ark for you I have seen righteous before me in the generation this.
And the Lord said to Noah, Take all your family and go into the ark, for you only in this generation have I seen to be upright.
2 Of all - the livestock clean you will take for yourself seven seven a male and female its and of the animal[s] which not [is] clean it two a male and female its.
Of every clean beast you will take seven males and seven females, and of the beasts which are not clean, two, the male and his female;
3 Also of [the] bird[s] of the heavens seven seven male and female to preserve alive offspring on [the] surface of all the earth.
And of the birds of the air, seven males and seven females, so that their seed may still be living on the face of the earth.
4 For to days yet seven I [am] about to bring rain on the earth forty day[s] and forty night[s] and I will wipe all the existence which I have made from on [the] surface of the ground.
For after seven days I will send rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights, for the destruction of every living thing which I have made on the face of the earth.

In twos, male and female, they went into the ark with Noah, as God had said.

In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, all the fountains of the great deep came bursting through, and the windows of heaven were open;

13 On [the] substance of the day this he went Noah and Shem and Ham and Japheth [the] sons of Noah and [the] wife of Noah and [the] three [the] wives of sons his with them into the ark.
On the same day Noah, with Shem, Ham, and Japheth, his sons, and his wife and his sons' wives, went into the ark;
14 They and every animal to kind its and all the livestock to kind its and every creeping thing which creeps on the earth to kind its and every bird to kind its every bird every wing.

They went with Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh in which is the breath of life.
16 And those [which] came male and female of all flesh they came just as he had commanded him God and he closed Yahweh behind him.

17 And it was the flood forty day[s] on the earth and they increased the waters and they lifted the ark and it rose from on the earth.
And for forty days the waters were over all the earth; and the waters were increased so that the ark was lifted up high over the earth.
18 And they increased the waters and they increased exceedingly on the earth and it went the ark on [the] surface of the waters.

19 And the waters they increased exceedingly exceedingly on the earth and they were covered all the mountains high which [were] under all the heavens.
And the waters overcame everything on the earth; and all the mountains under heaven were covered.

And the waters were over the earth a hundred and fifty days.
