Genesis 7
Complete Jewish Bible
7 (ii) Adonai said to Noach, “Come into the ark, you and all your household; for I have seen that you alone in this generation are righteous before me. 2 Of every clean animal you are to take seven couples, and of the animals that are not clean, one couple; 3 also of the birds in the air take seven couples — in order to preserve their species throughout the earth. 4 For in seven more days I will cause it to rain on the earth forty days and forty nights; I will wipe out every living thing that I have made from the face of the earth.” 5 Noach did all that Adonai ordered him to do.
6 Noach was 600 years old when the water flooded the earth. 7 Noach went into the ark with his sons, his wife and his sons’ wives, because of the floodwaters. 8 Of clean animals, of animals that are not clean, of birds, and of everything that creeps on the ground, 9 couples, male and female, went in to Noach in the ark, as God had ordered Noach.
10 After seven days the water flooded the earth. 11 On the seventeenth day of the second month of the 600th year of Noach’s life all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of the sky were opened. 12 It rained on the earth forty days and forty nights.
13 On that same day Noach entered the ark with Shem, Ham and Yefet the sons of Noach, Noach’s wife and the three wives of his sons accompanying them; 14 they, and every animal of every species, all the livestock of every species, every animal that creeps on the ground of every species, and every bird of every species — all sorts of winged creatures. 15 They went in to Noach in the ark, couples from every kind of living thing that breathes. 16 Those that entered went in, male and female, from every kind of living being, as God had ordered him; and Adonai shut him inside.
(iii) 17 The flood was forty days on the earth; the water grew higher and floated the ark, so that it was lifted up off the earth. 18 The water overflowed the earth and grew deeper, until the ark floated on the surface of the water. 19 The water overpowered the earth mightily; all the high mountains under the entire sky were covered; 20 the water covered the mountains by more than twenty-two-and-a-half feet. 21 All living beings that moved on the earth perished — birds, livestock, other animals, insects, and every human being, 22 everything in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life; whatever was on dry land died. 23 He wiped out every living thing on the surface of the ground — not only human beings, but livestock, creeping animals and birds in the air. They were wiped out from the earth; only Noach was left, along with those who were with him in the ark. 24 The water held power over the earth for 150 days.

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.

7 Monda az Úr Noénak: Menj be te, és egész házadnépe a bárkába: mert téged láttalak igaznak elõttem ebben a nemzedékben.
2 Minden tiszta baromból hetet-hetet vígy be, hímet és nõstényét; azokból a barmokból pedig, a melyek nem tiszták, kettõt-kettõt, hímet és nõstényét.
3 Az égi madarakból is hetet-hetet, hímet és nõstényét, hogy magvok maradjon az egész föld színén.
4 Mert hét nap múlva esõt bocsátok a földre negyven nap és negyven éjjel; és eltörlök a föld színérõl minden állatot, melyet teremtettem.
5 Cselekedék azért Noé mind a szerint, a mint az Úr néki megparancsolta vala.
6 Noé pedig hatszáz esztendõs vala, mikor az özönvíz volt a földön.
7 Beméne azért Noé és az õ fiai, az õ felesége, és fiainak feleségei õ vele a bárkába, az özönvíz elõl.
8 A tiszta barmok közûl, és a tisztátalan barmok közûl, a madarak közûl, és minden földön csúszó-mászó állat közûl,
9 Kettõ-kettõ méne be Noéhoz a bárkába, hím és nõstény: a mint Isten megparancsolta vala Noénak.
10 Lõn pedig hetednapra, hogy megjöve az özönvíz a földre.
11 Noé életének hatszázadik esztendejében, a második hónapban, e hónap tizenhetedik napján, felfakadának ezen a napon a nagy mélység minden forrásai, és az ég csatornái megnyilatkozának.
12 És esék az esõ a földre negyven nap és negyven éjjel.
13 Ugyanezen a napon ment vala be Noé és Sém és Khám és Jáfet, Noénak fiai, és Noé felesége és az õ fiainak három felesége velök együtt a bárkába.
14 Õk, és minden vad az õ neme szerint és minden barom az õ neme szerint és minden csúszó-mászó állat, mely csúsz-mász a földön, az õ neme szerint és minden repdesõ állat az õ neme szerint, minden madár, minden szárnyas állat.
15 Kettõ-kettõ méne be Noéhoz a bárkába minden testbõl, melyben élõ lélek vala.
16 A melyek pedig bemenének, hím és nõstény méne be minden testbõl, a mint parancsolta vala Isten õnéki: és az Úr bezára utána [az] [ajtót].
17 Mikor az özönvíz negyven napig volt a földön, annyira nevekedének a vizek, hogy felveheték a bárkát, és az felemelkedék a földrõl.
18 A vizek pedig áradának és egyre nevekedének a földön, és a bárka jár vala a víz színén.
19 Azután a vizek felette igen nagy erõt vevének a földön, és a legmagasabb hegyek is mind elboríttatának, melyek az egész ég alatt valának.
20 Tizenöt singgel nevekedének a vizek feljebb, minekutánna a hegyek elboríttattak vala.
21 És oda vesze minden földön járó test, madár, barom, vad, és a földön nyüzsgõ minden csúszó-mászó állat; és minden ember.
22 Mindaz, a minek orrában élõ lélek lehellete vala, a szárazon valók közûl mind meghala.
23 És eltörle [az Isten] minden állatot, a mely a föld színén vala, az embertõl a baromig, a csúszó-mászó állatig, és az égi madárig; mindenek eltöröltetének a földrõl; és csak Noé marada meg, és azok a kik vele valának a bárkában.
24 És erõt vevének a vizek a földön, száz ötven napig.
