창세기 7
Korean Bible: Easy-to-Read Version
홍수가 시작되다
7 주께서 노아에게 말씀하셨다. “내가 보니 너는 이 악한 세상에서 단 하나 의로운 사람이구나. 네 가족을 모두 데리고 배에 타거라. 2 깨끗한 짐승들[a]은 각각 암수 일곱 쌍씩, 그리고 깨끗하지 못한 짐승들은 각각 암수 두 쌍씩 데리고 들어가거라. 3 하늘의 새도 각각 암수 일곱 쌍씩 데리고 들어가거라. 그것은 땅 위의 모든 동물이 다 죽고 난 뒤에도 이 동물들은 살아남게 하려는 것이다. 4 지금부터 이레가 지나면 내가 사십 일 동안 밤낮으로 비를 내리겠다. 그렇게 하여 땅 위에 있는 모든 생물을 다 쓸어버리겠다.” 5 노아는 주께서 명하신 대로 모든 일을 다 하였다.
6 땅 위에 홍수가 났을 때 노아는 육백 살이었다. 7 노아는 홍수를 피하려고 아내와 아들들과 며느리들과 함께 배에 올랐다. 8 깨끗한 짐승들과 깨끗하지 못한 땅 위의 짐승들이 노아에게 왔다. 또 새들과 땅 위를 기는 모든 길짐승들도 왔다. 9 이들은 하나님께서 노아에게 명하신 대로 암수 짝을 지어 노아에게 와서 함께 배에 올랐다. 10 이레가 지나자 큰 비가 땅 위에 쏟아졌다.
11 노아가 육백 살이 되던 해 두 번째 달 십칠 일에 땅 속 깊은 곳에서 큰 샘들이 모두 터져서 땅 위로 물이 용솟음쳐 올라왔다. 그리고 하늘의 홍수문이 열리고 12 엄청난 비가 사십 일 동안 밤낮으로 쏟아져 내렸다.
13 바로 그 날 노아는 세 아들 셈과 함과 야벳과 자기 아내와 며느리들과 함께 배에 들어갔다. 14 그들은 온갖 종류의 들짐승과, 온갖 종류의 집짐승과, 온갖 종류의 길짐승과, 온갖 종류의 새와, 날개 달린 모든 것을 데리고 배에 들어갔다. 15 살아 숨 쉬는 모든 동물이 둘씩 짝을 지어 노아에게 와서 배에 들어갔다. 16 하나님께서 노아에게 명하신 대로 이 모든 동물이 암수 짝을 지어 배에 올랐다. 그런 다음 주께서 배의 문을 닫으셨다.
17 땅 위에서는 큰물이 사십 일 동안 계속되니 불어 오른 물 때문에 배가 땅에서 높이 떠 올랐다. 18 물이 계속 차오르자 배가 물 위를 둥둥 떠다녔다. 19 물이 점점 더 차오르니 하늘 아래 높은 산들이 모두 물에 잠겼다. 20 물은 계속 불어나 높은 산들이 다 잠기고도 열다섯 자[b]나 더 올라갔다.
21 땅 위에 살던 모든 생물이 죽었다. 모든 새와 집짐승과 들짐승과 땅 위에서 떼 지어 살던 모든 생물이 다 죽었다. 그리고 사람도 모두 다 죽었다. 22 마른 땅 위에서 코로 숨을 쉬며 살던 것들이 모두 죽었다. 23 이렇게 하나님께서 땅 위에 살던 모든 것을 쓸어버리셨다. 사람을 비롯하여 짐승까지, 길짐승과 하늘의 새까지 땅에서 사라졌다. 오직 노아와 그의 배에 함께 탄 사람들과 짐승들만이 살아남았다.
24 물의 높이가 백오십 일 동안 그대로 유지되었다.

New King James Version
The Great Flood(A)
7 Then the (B)Lord said to Noah, (C)“Come into the ark, you and all your household, because I have seen that (D)you are righteous before Me in this generation. 2 You shall take with you seven each of every (E)clean animal, a male and his female; (F)two each of animals that are unclean, a male and his female; 3 also seven each of birds of the air, male and female, to keep [a]the species alive on the face of all the earth. 4 For after (G)seven more days I will cause it to rain on the earth (H)forty days and forty nights, and I will [b]destroy from the face of the earth all living things that I have made.” 5 (I)And Noah did according to all that the Lord commanded him. 6 Noah was (J)six hundred years old when the floodwaters were on the earth.
7 (K)So Noah, with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives, went into the ark because of the waters of the flood. 8 Of clean animals, of animals that are unclean, of birds, and of everything that creeps on the earth, 9 two by two they went into the ark to Noah, male and female, as God had commanded Noah. 10 And it came to pass after seven days that the waters of the flood were on the earth. 11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, on (L)that day all (M)the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the (N)windows of heaven were opened. 12 (O)And the rain was on the earth forty days and forty nights.
13 On the very same day Noah and Noah’s sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and Noah’s wife and the three wives of his sons with them, entered the ark— 14 (P)they and every beast after its kind, all cattle after their kind, every creeping thing that creeps on the earth after its kind, and every bird after its kind, every bird of every (Q)sort. 15 And they (R)went into the ark to Noah, two by two, of all flesh in which is the breath of life. 16 So those that entered, male and female of all flesh, went in (S)as God had commanded him; and the Lord shut him in.
17 (T)Now the flood was on the earth forty days. The waters increased and lifted up the ark, and it rose high above the earth. 18 The waters prevailed and greatly increased on the earth, (U)and the ark moved about on the surface of the waters. 19 And the waters prevailed exceedingly on the earth, and all the high hills under the whole heaven were covered. 20 The waters prevailed fifteen cubits upward, and the mountains were covered. 21 (V)And all flesh died that moved on [c]the earth: birds and cattle and beasts and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, and every man. 22 All in (W)whose nostrils was the breath [d]of the spirit of life, all that was on the dry land, died. 23 So He destroyed all living things which were on the face of the ground: both man and cattle, creeping thing and bird of the air. They were destroyed from the earth. Only (X)Noah and those who were with him in the ark remained alive. 24 (Y)And the waters prevailed on the earth one hundred and fifty days.

Genesis 7
English Standard Version
7 Then the Lord said to Noah, (A)“Go into the ark, you and all your household, for I have seen that (B)you are righteous before me in this generation. 2 Take with you seven pairs of all (C)clean animals,[a] the male and his mate, and a pair of the animals that are not clean, the male and his mate, 3 and seven pairs[b] of the birds of the heavens also, male and female, to keep their offspring alive on the face of all the earth. 4 For in seven days (D)I will send rain on the earth forty days and forty nights, (E)and every living thing[c] that I have made I will blot out from the face of the ground.” 5 (F)And Noah did all that the Lord had commanded him.
6 Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters came upon the earth. 7 And Noah and his sons and his wife and his sons' wives with him went into the ark to escape the waters of the flood. 8 Of clean animals, and of animals that are not clean, and of birds, and of everything that creeps on the ground, 9 two and two, male and female, went into the ark with Noah, as God had commanded Noah. 10 And after seven days the waters of the flood came upon the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the (G)fountains of the great deep burst forth, and (H)the windows of the heavens were opened. 12 And rain fell upon the earth forty days and forty nights. 13 On the very same day Noah and his sons, Shem and Ham and Japheth, and Noah's wife and the three wives of his sons with them entered the ark, 14 they and every beast, according to its kind, and all the livestock according to their kinds, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, according to its kind, and every bird, according to its kind, every winged creature. 15 They (I)went into the ark with Noah, two and two of all flesh in which there was the breath of life. 16 And those that entered, male and female of all flesh, went in (J)as God had commanded him. And the Lord shut him in.
17 The flood (K)continued forty days on the earth. The waters increased and bore up the ark, and it rose high above the earth. 18 The waters prevailed and increased greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the face of the waters. 19 And the waters prevailed so mightily on the earth that all the high mountains under the whole heaven were covered. 20 The waters prevailed above the mountains, covering them fifteen cubits[d] deep. 21 And (L)all flesh died that moved on the earth, birds, livestock, beasts, all swarming creatures that swarm on the earth, and all mankind. 22 Everything on the dry land (M)in whose nostrils was the breath of life died. 23 He blotted out every living thing that was on the face of the ground, man and animals and creeping things and birds of the heavens. They were blotted out from the earth. Only (N)Noah was left, and those who were with him in the ark. 24 And the waters prevailed on the earth 150 days.
