Of euery cleane beast thou shalt take to thee by seuens, the male and his female: but of vncleane beastes by couples, the male and his female.
3 sed et de volatilibus caeli septena septena masculum et feminam ut salvetur semen super faciem universae terrae
Of the foules also of the heauen by seuens, male and female, to keepe seede aliue vpon the whole earth.
4 adhuc enim et post dies septem ego pluam super terram quadraginta diebus et quadraginta noctibus et delebo omnem substantiam quam feci de superficie terrae
For seuen dayes hence I will cause it raine vpon the earth fourtie dayes and fourtie nightes, and all the substance that I haue made, will I destroy from off the earth.
