18The waterH4325 prevailedH1396 and increasedH7235 greatlyH3966 upon the earthH776, and the arkH8392 1floatedH1980 on the 2surfaceH6440 of the waterH4325.
19The waterH4325 prevailedH1396 moreH3966 and moreH3966 upon the earthH776, so that allH3605 the highH1364 mountainsH2022 3everywhereH3605 underH8478 the heavensH8064 were coveredH3680.
20The waterH4325 prevailedH1396 fifteenH2568H6240 4cubitsH520 higherH4605, 5and the mountainsH2022 were coveredH3680.
216AllH3605 fleshH1320 that 7movedH7430 on the earthH776 perishedH1478, birdsH5775 and cattleH929 and beastsH2421 and everyH3605 swarmingH8318 thingH8318 that swarmsH8317 upon the earthH776, and allH3605 mankindH120;
22of allH3605 that was on the dryH2724 landH2724, allH3605 8in whoseH834 nostrilsH639 was the breathH5397 of the spiritH7307 of lifeH2425, diedH4191.
23Thus He blottedH4229 out 9everyH3605 livingH3351 thingH3351 that was upon the faceH6440 of the landH127, from manH120 to animalsH929 to creepingH7431 thingsH7431 and to birdsH5775 of the 10skyH8064, and they were blottedH4229 out from the earthH776; and onlyH389 11NoahH5146 was leftH7604, together with those that were with him in the arkH8392.
2412The waterH4325 prevailedH1396 upon the earthH776 one hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 daysH3117.
