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, (B)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 (C)And all flesh died that moved on [a]the earth: birds and cattle and beasts and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, and every man. 22 All in (D)whose nostrils was the breath [b]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 (E)Noah and those who were with him in the ark remained alive.

Ezekiel 27:26-34
New King James Version
26 Your oarsmen brought you into many waters,
But (A)the east wind broke you in the midst of the seas.
27 “Your (B)riches, wares, and merchandise,
Your mariners and pilots,
Your caulkers and merchandisers,
All your men of war who are in you,
And the entire company which is in your midst,
Will fall into the midst of the seas on the day of your ruin.
28 The (C)common-land[a] will shake at the sound of the cry of your pilots.
29 “All (D)who handle the oar,
The mariners,
All the pilots of the sea
Will come down from their ships and stand on the [b]shore.
30 They will make their voice heard because of you;
They will cry bitterly and (E)cast dust on their heads;
They (F)will roll about in ashes;
31 They will (G)shave themselves completely bald because of you,
Gird themselves with sackcloth,
And weep for you
With bitterness of heart and bitter wailing.
32 In their wailing for you
They will (H)take up a lamentation,
And lament for you:
(I)‘What city is like Tyre,
Destroyed in the midst of the sea?
33 ‘When(J) your wares went out by sea,
You satisfied many people;
You enriched the kings of the earth
With your many luxury goods and your merchandise.
34 But (K)you are broken by the seas in the depths of the waters;
(L)Your merchandise and the entire company will fall in your midst.
