4For yet in seven days, I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every substance that I have made I will destroy from off the face of the earth.

5¶ And Noah did according unto all that the Lord commanded him.

6And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.

7And Noah went in and his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives with him into the ark because of the waters of the flood.

8Of clean animals and of animals that are not clean and of fowls and of every thing that moves upon the earth,

9there went in two by two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.

10And it came to pass after seven days that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.

11¶ In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of the heavens were opened.

12And there was rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights.

13¶ In that same day Noah and Shem and Ham and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah’s wife and the three wives of his sons with them entered into the ark,

14they and every animal after its kind and all the beasts after their kind and every creeping thing that moves upon the earth after its kind and every fowl after its kind, every bird, every thing with wings.

15And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two by two of all flesh in which is the spirit of life.

16And those that went in went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him, and the Lord shut him in.

17¶ And the flood was forty days upon the earth, and the waters multiplied and bore up the ark, and it was lifted up above the earth.

18And the waters prevailed and multiplied greatly upon the earth, and the ark went upon the face of the waters.

19And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth, and all the high mountains that were under all the heavens were covered.

20Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail, and the mountains were covered.

21¶ And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl and of beasts and of animals and of every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth and every man;

22all in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life of all that was in the dry land died.

23And every substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man and cattle and the animals and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth, and only Noah remained alive and those that were with him in the ark.

24And the waters prevailed upon the earth one hundred and fifty days.

CHAPTER 7

1Also the Lord said to Noah, Enter thou and all thine house into the ship, for I saw thee alone were just before me in this generation.

2Of all clean living beasts, thou shalt take by seven and by seven, male and female; forsooth of unclean living beasts, thou shalt take by twain and by twain [or two and two], male and female;

3and also of [the] volatiles [or fowls] of heaven, thou shalt take, by seven and by seven, male and female, that their seed be saved on the face of all earth.

4For yet and after seven days, I shall rain on [the] earth forty days and forty nights, and I shall do away all substance which I made, from the face of [the] earth.

5Therefore Noah did all things which the Lord commanded to him.

6And he was of six hundred years, when the waters of the great flood flowed on [the] earth.

7And Noah entered into the ship, and his sons, and his wife, and the wives of his sons, entered with him, for the waters of the great flood.

8And of living beasts clean and unclean, and of [the] birds of heaven, and of each beast which is moved on [the] earth,

9by twain and by twain [or two and two], male and female entered to Noah into the ship, as the Lord commanded to Noah.

10And when seven days had passed, the waters of the great flood flowed on [the] earth.

11In the six hundredth year of the life of Noah, in the second month, in the seventeenth day of the month, all the wells of the great sea were broken, and the windows of heaven were opened,

12and rain was made on the earth forty days and forty nights.

13In the end of that day Noah entered, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, his sons, and his wife, and the [three] wives of his sons, entered with them into the ship.

14They entered, and each beast by his kind, and all work beasts in their kind, and each beast which is moved on [the] earth in his kind, and each volatile by his kind; all birds and all volatiles [or fowls],

15entered to Noah into the ship, by twain and by twain [or two and two] of each flesh in which the spirit of life was.

16And those that entered, entered male and female of each flesh, as God commanded to him. And the Lord enclosed him from withoutforth.

17And the great flood was made forty days and forty nights on [the] earth, and the waters were multiplied, and raised the ship on high from the earth.

18The waters flowed greatly, and filled all things in the face of the earth. Forsooth the ship was borne on the waters.

19And the waters had mastery greatly on [the] earth, and all [the] high hills under all of heaven were covered;

20the water was higher, by fifteen cubits, over the hills which it covered.

21And each flesh was wasted that moved on [the] earth, of birds, of living beasts, of unreasonable beasts, and of all reptiles or all creeping beasts that creep on [the] earth.

22All men, and all things in which the breathing of life was in [the] earth, were dead.

23And God did away all the substance that was on [the] earth, from man till to beast, as well a creeping beast, as the birds of heaven; and those [or they] were done away from [the] earth. Forsooth Noah dwelled alone, and they that were with him in the ship.

24And the waters of the great flood over-went the earth an hundred and fifty days.
