Genesis 7:6-12

6Noah was six hundred years old when the floodwaters were on the earth.

7So Noah, with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives, went into the ark because of the waters of the flood.

8Of clean animals, of animals that are unclean, of birds, and of everything that creeps on the earth,

9two by two they went into the ark to Noah, male and female, as God had commanded Noah.

10And it came to pass after seven days that the waters of the flood were on the earth.

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

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