01:007:015 And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all
flesh, wherein is the breath of life.
01:007:016 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh,
as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in.
01:007:017 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.
01:007:018 And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the
earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters.
01:007:019 And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all
the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were
covered.
01:007:020 Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the
mountains were covered.
01:007:021 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:
01:007:022 All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was
in the dry land, died.
01:007:023 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.
01:007:024 And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty
days.
01:008:001 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;
01:008:002 The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were
stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained;
01:008:003 And the waters returned from off the earth continually: and
after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were
abated.
01:008:004 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth
day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
01:008:005 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.
01:008:006 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened
the window of the ark which he had made:
01:008:007 And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until
the waters were dried up from off the earth.
01:008:008 Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were
abated from off the face of the ground;
01:008:009 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, and took
her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark.
