1And the Lord said to Noah, Take all your family and go into the ark, for you only in this generation have I seen to be upright.
2Of every clean beast you will take seven males and seven females, and of the beasts which are not clean, two, the male and his female;
3And of the birds of the air, seven males and seven females, so that their seed may still be living on the face of the earth.
4For after seven days I will send rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights, for the destruction of every living thing which I have made on the face of the earth.
5And Noah did everything which the Lord said he was to do.
6And Noah was six hundred years old when the waters came flowing over all the earth.
7And Noah, with his sons and his wife and his sons' wives, went into the ark because of the flowing of the waters.
