Genesis 7:11-17

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

12And the pour of rain was on the earth forty days and forty nights.

13On the same day went Noah, and Shem and Ham and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;

14they, and every beast after its kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth after its kind, and all fowl after its kind — every bird of every wing.

15And they went to Noah, into the ark, two and two of all flesh, in which was the breath of life.

16And they that came, came male and female of all flesh, as 1God had commanded him. And Jehovah shut him in.

17And the flood was forty days on the earth. And the waters increased, and bore up the ark; and it was lifted up above the earth.
