Genesis 6:17-21

17And I, beholdH2009, I doH589 bringH935 the floodH3999 of watersH4325 uponH5921 the earthH776, to destroyH7843 allH3605 fleshH1320, whereinH834 is the breathH7307 of lifeH2416, from underH8478 heavenH8064; everyH3605 thingH3605 that is in the earthH776 shall dieH1478.

18But I will establishH6965 my covenantH1285 with thee; and thou shalt comeH935 intoH413 the arkH8392, thou, and thy sonsH1121, and thy wifeH802, and thy sons’H1121 wivesH802 with thee.

19And of everyH3605 livingH2416 thingH3605 of allH3605 fleshH1320, twoH8147 of everyH3605 sort shalt thou bringH935 intoH413 the arkH8392, to keepH935 them aliveH2416 with thee; they shall be maleH2145 and femaleH5347.

20Of the fowlH5775 afterH4480 their kindH4327, and of the cattleH929 afterH4480 their kindH4327, of everyH3605 creepingH7431 thingH7431 of the groundH127 afterH4480 itsH3605 kindH4327, twoH8147 of everyH3605 sort shall comeH935 unto thee, to keepH935 them aliveH2421.

21And takeH3947 thou unto thee of allH3605 foodH3978 that is eatenH398, and gatherH622 it to thee; and it shall be for foodH3978 for thee, and for them.
