The lenth of the arcke shall be .iij. hundred cubytes/ ãd the bredth
of it .l. cubytes/ and the heyth of it .xxx. cubytes. A wyndow shalt
thou make aboue in the arcke. And wythin a cubyte compasse shalt thou
finysh it. And the dore of the arcke shalt thou sette in y^e syde of
it: and thou shalt make it with iij loftes one aboue an other. For
behold I wil bringe in a floud of water apon the erth to destroy all
flesh from vnder heaven/ wherin breth of life is so that all that is
in the erth shall perish. But I will make myne apoyntement with the/
that both thou shalt come in to y^e arcke and thy sonnes/ thy wyfe and
thy sonnes wyves with the.
And of all that lyveth what soever flesh it be/ shalt thou brynge in
to the arcke/ of every thynge a payre/ to kepe them a lyve wyth the.
And male and female se that they be/ of byrdes in their kynde/ and of
beastes in their kynde/ and of all maner of wormes of the erth in
their kinde: a payre of every thinge shall come vnto the to kepe them
a lyve. And take vnto the of all maner of meate y^t may be eaten &
laye it vp in stoore by the/ that it may be meate both for y^e and for
thẽ: and Noe did acordynge to all that God commaunded hym.
The .vij. Chapter.
And the LORde sayd vnto Noe: goo in to the arcke both thou and all thy
houssold. For the haue I sene rightuous before me in thys generacion.
Of all clene beastes take vnto the .vij. of every kynde the male and
hys female And of vnclene beastes a payre/ the male and hys female:
lykewyse of the byrdes of the ayre vij. of every kynde/ male and
female to save seed vppon all the erth. For .vij. dayes hence wyll I
send rayne vppõ the erth .xl. days & .xl. nyghtes and wyll dystroy all
maner of thynges that I haue made/ from of the face of the erth..
And Noe dyd acordynge to all y^t the lorde cõmaunded hym: and Noe was
.vi. hundred yere olde/ when the floud of water came vppon the erth:
and Noe went and his sonnes and his wyfe and his sonnes wyves wyth
hym/ in to the arke from the waters of the floud. And of clene beastes
and of beastes that are vnclene and of byrdes and of all that crepeth
vppõ the erth/ came in by cooples of every kynde vnto Noe in to the
arke: a male and a female: even as God commaunded Noe. And the seventh
daye the waters of the floud came vppon the erth.
In the .vi. hundred yere of Noes lyfe/ in the secõde moneth/ in the
.xvij daye of the moneth/ y^t same daye were all the founteynes of the
grete depe broken vp/ & the wyndowes of heavẽ were opened/ ãd there
fell a rayne vpon the erth .xl. dayes and .xl. nyghtes.
