Genesis 7:1-6

1Then the Lord said to Noah, “Enter the ark, you and all your household, for you alone I have seen to be 1righteous before Me in this 2time. 2You shall take 3with you of every 4clean animal 5by sevens, a male and his female; and of the animals that are not clean two, a male and his female; 3also of the birds of the 6sky, 7by sevens, male and female, to keep 8offspring alive on the face of all the earth. 4For after 9seven more days, I will send rain on the earth 10forty days and forty nights; and I will blot out from the face of the land 11every living thing that I have made.” 512Noah did according to all that the Lord had commanded him.

6Now Noah was 13six hundred years old when the flood of water 14came upon the earth.
