CHAP. VII.

1 Noah, with his familie, and the liuing creatures, enter into the Arke. 17 The beginning, increase, and continuance of the Flood.

1And the LORD saide vnto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the Arke: for thee haue I seene righteous before me, in this generation.1

2Of euery cleane beast thou shalt take to thee by seuens, the male and his female: and of beastes that are not cleane, by two, the male and his female.2

3Of fowles also of the aire, by seuens, the male & the female; to keepe seed aliue vpon the face of all the earth.

4For yet seuen dayes, and I will cause it to raine vpon the earth, fortie dayes, and forty nights: and euery liuing substance that I haue made, will I destroy, frō off the face of the earth.4

5And Noah did according vnto all that the LORD commanded him.

6And Noah was sixe hundred yeeres old, when the flood of waters was vpon the earth.

7¶ And Noah went in, and his sonnes, and his wife, and his sonnes wiues with him, into the Arke, because of the waters of the Flood.

8Of cleane beasts, & of beasts that are not cleane, & of fowles, and of euery thing that creepeth vpon the earth,

9There went in two and two vnto Noah into the Arke, the male & the female, as God had commanded Noah.

10And it came to passe after seuen dayes, that the waters of the Flood were vpon the earth.10

11¶ In the sixe hundredth yeere of Noahs life, in the second moneth, the seuenteenth day of the moneth, the same day, were al the fountaines of the great deepe broken vp, and the windowes of heauen were opened.11

18And the waters preuailed, and were encreased greatly vpon the earth: and the Arke went vpon the face of the waters.

19And the waters preuailed exceedingly vpon the earth, and all the high hils, that were vnder the whole heauen, were couered.

20Fifteene cubits vpward, did the waters preuaile; and the mountaines were couered.

21And all flesh died, that mooued vpon the earth, both of fowle, & of cattell, and of beast, and of euery creeping thing that creepeth vpon the earth, and euery man.21

22All in whose nosethrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died.22

23And euery liuing substance was destroyed, which was vpon the face of the ground, both man and cattell, and the creeping things, and the foule of the heauen; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah onely remained aliue, and they that were with him in the Arke.23

24And the waters preuailed vpon the earth, an hundred and fifty dayes.
