Make yourself an ark of gopher wood; make rooms in the ark, and cover it inside and out with pitch.
-
This is how you are to make it: the length of the ark three hundred cubits, its breadth fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits.
-
Make a roof for the ark, and finish it to a cubit above; and set the door of the ark in its side; make it with lower, second, and third decks.
-
But I will establish my covenant with you; and you shall come into the ark, you, your sons, your wife, and your sons’ wives with you.
-
And of every living thing of all flesh, you shall bring two of every sort into the ark, to keep them alive with you; they shall be male and female.

The Great Flood
Then the Lord said to Noah, “Go into the ark, you and all your household, for I have seen that you are righteous before me in this generation.
-
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.
-
two and two, male and female, went into the ark with Noah, as God had commanded Noah.
-
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,
-
They went into the ark with Noah, two and two of all flesh in which there was the breath of life.
-
The flood continued forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bore up the ark, and it rose high above the earth.
-
The waters prevailed and increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark floated on the face of the waters.
-
He blotted out every living thing that was upon the face of the ground, man and animals and creeping things and birds of the air; they were blotted out from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those that were with him in the ark.
-
The Flood Subsides
But God remembered Noah and all the beasts and all the cattle that were with him in the ark. And God made a wind blow over the earth, and the waters subsided;
-
and in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ark came to rest upon the mountains of Ar′arat.
-
At the end of forty days Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made,
-
but the dove found no place to set her foot, and she returned to him to the ark, for the waters were still on the face of the whole earth. So he put forth his hand and took her and brought her into the ark with him.
-
He waited another seven days, and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark;
-
In the six hundred and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried from off the earth; and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and behold, the face of the ground was dry.
-
“Go forth from the ark, you and your wife, and your sons and your sons’ wives with you.
-
And every beast, every creeping thing, and every bird, everything that moves upon the earth, went forth by families out of the ark.
-
and with every living creature that is with you, the birds, the cattle, and every beast of the earth with you, as many as came out of the ark.
-
Noah and His Sons
The sons of Noah who went forth from the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham was the father of Canaan.
