007:012 The rain was on the earth forty days and forty nights.
007:013 In the same day Noah, and Shem, Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah,
and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them,
entered into the ship;
007:014 they, and every animal after its kind, all the livestock after
their kind, every creeping thing that creeps on the earth
after its kind, and every bird after its kind, every bird
of every sort.
007:015 They went to Noah into the ship, by pairs of all flesh with
the breath of life in them.
007:016 Those who went in, went in male and female of all flesh,
as God commanded him; and Yahweh shut him in.
007:017 The flood was forty days on the earth. The waters increased,
and lifted up the ship, and it was lifted up above the earth.
007:018 The waters prevailed, and increased greatly on the earth;
and the ship floated on the surface of the waters.
007:019 The waters prevailed exceedingly on the earth. All the high
mountains that were under the whole sky were covered.
007:020 The waters prevailed fifteen cubits upward, and the
mountains were covered.
007:021 All flesh died that moved on the earth, including birds,
livestock, animals, every creeping thing that creeps on the earth,
and every man.
007:022 All in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life,
of all that was on the dry land, died.
007:023 Every living thing was destroyed that was on the surface
of the ground, including man, livestock, creeping things,
and birds of the sky. They were destroyed from the earth.
Only Noah was left, and those who were with him in the ship.
007:024 The waters prevailed on the earth one hundred fifty days.
008:001 God remembered Noah, all the animals, and all the livestock that were
with him in the ship; and God made a wind to pass over the earth.
The waters subsided.
008:002 The deep's fountains and the sky's windows were also stopped,
and the rain from the sky was restrained.
008:003 The waters receded from the earth continually. After the end
of one hundred fifty days the waters decreased.
008:004 The ship rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day
of the month, on Ararat's mountains.
008:005 The waters receded continually until the tenth month.
In the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops
of the mountains were seen.
008:006 It happened at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window
of the ship which he had made,
008:007 and he sent forth a raven. It went back and forth,
until the waters were dried up from the earth.
008:008 He sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated
from the surface of the ground,
008:009 but the dove found no place to rest her foot, and she returned
to him into the ship; for the waters were on the surface
of the whole earth.
