7 And the LORD said to Noah, “Enter into the Ark, and all your house; for you have I seen righteous before me in this age.

² “You shall take seven pairs of every clean beast (the male and his female), but of unclean beasts by couples (the male and his female).

³ “Also, take the birds of the heaven by sevens (male and female), to keep seed alive upon the whole Earth.

⁴ “For in seven days I will cause it to rain upon the Earth for forty days and forty nights. And I will destroy all the substance that I have made from off the Earth.”

⁵ Therefore, Noah did according to all that the LORD commanded him.

⁶ And Noah was six hundred years old when the Flood of waters was upon the Earth.

⁷ So, Noah and his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives entered into the Ark with him, because of the waters of the Flood.
