13Then God said to Noah, “The end of all living creatures has come before Me, because through them the earth is full of violence. Now behold, I will destroy both them and the earth.
14Make for yourself an ark of gopher wood; make rooms in the ark and coat it with pitch inside and out.
15And this is how you are to build it: The ark is to be 300 cubits long, 50 cubits wide, and 30 cubits high.
16You are to make a roof for the ark, finish its walls a cubit from the top, place a door in the side of the ark, and build lower, middle, and upper decks.
17And behold, I will bring floodwaters upon the earth to destroy every creature under the heavens that has the breath of life. Everything on the earth will perish.
18But I will establish My covenant with you, and you will enter the ark — you and your sons and your wife and your sons’ wives with you.
19And you are to bring two of every living creature into the ark — male and female — to keep them alive with you.
20Two of every kind of bird and animal and crawling creature will come to you to be kept alive.
21You are also to take for yourself every kind of food that is eaten and gather it as food for yourselves and for the animals.”
22So Noah did everything precisely as God had commanded him.
1Then the LORD said to Noah, “Go into the ark, you and all your family, because I have found you righteous in this generation.
2You are to take with you seven pairs of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate; a pair of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate;
3and seven pairs of every kind of bird of the air, male and female, to preserve their offspring on the face of all the earth.
4For seven days from now I will send rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights, and I will wipe from the face of the earth every living thing I have made.”
5And Noah did all that the LORD had commanded him.
6Now Noah was 600 years old when the floodwaters came upon the earth.
7And Noah and his wife, with his sons and their wives, entered the ark to escape the waters of the flood.
