the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits,
and the height of it thirty cubits.

finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side
thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it.

to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven;

into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with
thee.

thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be
male and female.

creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of every sort shall come
unto thee, to keep them alive.

gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them.

female.

seed alive upon the face of all the earth.
