Genesis 7:11-24

11InH8141 the sixH8337 hundredthH3967 yearH8141 of Noah’sH5146 lifeH2416, in the secondH8145 monthH2320, the seventeenthH7651H6240 dayH3117 of the monthH2320, the sameH2088 dayH3117 were all the fountainsH4599 of the greatH7227 deepH8415 broken upH1234, and the windowsH699 of heavenH8064 were openedH6605.1 12And the rainH1653 was upon the earthH776 fortyH705 daysH3117 and fortyH705 nightsH3915.

13In the sameH6106 dayH3117 enteredH935 NoahH5146, and ShemH8035, and HamH2526, and JaphethH3315, the sonsH1121 of NoahH5146, and Noah’sH5146 wifeH802, and the threeH7969 wivesH802 of his sonsH1121 with them, into the arkH8392; 14TheyH1992, and every beastH2416 after his kindH4327, and all the cattleH929 after their kindH4327, and every creeping thingH7431 that creepethH7430 upon the earthH776 after his kindH4327, and every fowlH5775 after his kindH4327, every birdH6833 of every sortH3671.2 15And they went inH935 to NoahH5146 into the arkH8392, twoH8147 and twoH8147 of all fleshH1320, in whichH834 is the breathH7307 of lifeH2416. 16And they that enteredH935, went inH935 maleH2145 and femaleH5347 of all fleshH1320, as GodH430 had commandedH6680 him: and the LORDH3068 shut him inH5462.

17And the floodH3999 was fortyH705 daysH3117 upon the earthH776; and the watersH4325 increasedH7235, and bore upH5375 the arkH8392, and it was liftedH7311 above the earthH776. 18And the watersH4325 prevailedH1396, and were increasedH7235 greatlyH3966 upon the earthH776; and the arkH8392 movedH3212 upon the faceH6440 of the watersH4325. 19And the watersH4325 prevailedH1396 exceedinglyH3966 upon the earthH776; and all the highH1364 hillsH2022, that were underH8478 the whole heavenH8064, were coveredH3680. 20FifteenH6240H2568 cubitsH520 upwardH4605 did the watersH4325 prevailH1396; and the mountainsH2022 were coveredH3680.

21And all fleshH1320 diedH1478 that movedH7430 upon the earthH776, both of fowlH5775, and of cattleH929, and of beastH2416, and of every creeping thingH8318 that creepethH8317 upon the earthH776, and every manH120: 22All in whose nostrilsH639 was the breathH5397H7307 of lifeH2416, of all that was on the dryH2724 land, diedH4191.3 23And every living thingH3351 was destroyedH4229 which was upon the faceH6440 of the groundH127, both manH120, and cattleH929, and the creeping thingsH7431, and the fowlH5775 of heavenH8064; and they were destroyedH4229 from the earthH776: and NoahH5146 onlyH389 remainedH7604 alive, and they thatH834 were with him in the arkH8392. 24And the watersH4325 prevailedH1396 upon the earthH776 an hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 daysH3117.
