Genesis 7:10-16

10After the seven days, the floodwaters were upon the land.

11In the six-hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on this day, all the water sources of the great deep burst open, and the windows of the sky were opened.

12Then there was rain upon the land 40 days and 40 nights.

13On that same day Noah, along with Noah’s sons Shem, Ham and Japheth, Noah’s wife and the three wives of Noah’s sons with them, entered the ark,

14they and every animal according to its kind, and all the livestock according to its kind, and every crawling creature that crawls on the land according to its kind, and every flying creature according to its kind, every bird, every winged creature.

15So to Noah and into the ark they went by twos—all flesh in which was the spirit of life.

16Those that came, male and female of all flesh, came just as God commanded him. Then Adonai shut him in.
