Genesis 6:13-17
New King James Version
The Ark Prepared(A)
13 And God said to Noah, (B)“The end of all flesh has come before Me, for the earth is filled with violence through them; (C)and behold, (D)I will destroy them with the earth. 14 Make yourself an ark of gopherwood; make [a]rooms in the ark, and cover it inside and outside with pitch. 15 And this is how you shall make it: The length of the ark shall be three hundred [b]cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits. 16 You shall make a window for the ark, and you shall finish it to a cubit from above; and set the door of the ark in its side. You shall make it with lower, second, and third decks. 17 (E)And behold, I Myself am bringing (F)floodwaters on the earth, to destroy from under heaven all flesh in which is the breath of life; everything that is on the earth shall (G)die.
