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.
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.
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.
5 And he did Noah according to all that he commanded him Yahweh.
6 And Noah [was] a son of six hundred year[s] and the flood was water on the earth.
7 And he went Noah and sons his and wife his and [the] wives of sons his with him into the ark because of [the] waters of the flood.
8 Of the animal[s] clean and of the animal[s] which not [was] it clean and of the bird[s] and all that [was] creeping on the ground.
9 Two two they came to Noah into the ark male and female just as he had commanded God Noah.
10 And it was to [the] seven the days and [the] waters of the flood they were on the earth.
11 In year six hundred year of [the] life of Noah in the month second on [the] seven-teen day of the month on the day this they were split open all [the] springs of [the] deep great and [the] floodgates of the heavens they were opened.
12 And it was the rain on the earth forty day[s] and forty night[s].
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.
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.
15 And they came to Noah into the ark two two of all flesh which [was] in it [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.
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.
20 Fif-teen cubit[s] from to above they increased the waters and they were covered the mountains.
21 And it died all flesh - which crept on the earth among the bird[s] and among the livestock and among the animal[s] and among every swarming thing which swarms on the earth and every human.
22 All that [the] breath of [the] breath of life [was] in nostrils its from all that [was] on the dry ground they died.
23 And he wiped out all the existence - which - [was] on [the] surface of the ground from humankind unto animal[s] unto creeping thing[s] and unto [the] bird[s] of the heavens and they were wiped out from the earth and he was left only Noah and which [were] with him in the ark.
24 And they increased the waters on the earth fifty and one hundred day[s].
