          DASV: Genesis 7    

1 Then the LORD said to Noah, "Enter the ark, you and all your family,
for I have seen that you alone are righteous before me in this generation.
2 Of every clean animal, take seven pairs, the male and its female;
and of the animals that are not clean, one pair, the male and its female.
3 Of the birds of the sky, seven pairs, male and female, to keep their
kind alive on the face of all the earth.
4 In seven days, I will cause it to rain upon the earth for forty days
and forty nights. Then I will blot out every creature that I have made
from the face of the earth."
5 And Noah did everything the LORD commanded him.

6 And Noah was 600 years old when the flood came on the earth.
7 Then Noah entered the ark, with his sons, his wife, and his
sons' wives, because of the waters of the flood.
8 Of clean animals, and of animals that are not clean, and of birds,
and of everything that creeps on the ground,
9 two by two, male and female, they entered the ark with Noah,
just as God commanded Noah.
10 And after seven days, the flood waters came on the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month,
on the seventeenth day of the month, on that very day all the fountains
of the great deep burst out, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12 And the rain fell on the earth for forty days and forty nights.

13 In the very same day Noah and his sons, Shem, Ham and Japheth,
along with Noah's wife and his son's three wives, entered into the ark;
14 they and every animal after its kind, and all the livestock after
their kind, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth after
its kind, and every bird after its kind, every sort of bird.
15 Two by two from all flesh which had the breath of life, they went
in with Noah into the ark.
16 And those that entered in, went in male and female of every kind,
just as God commanded him. Then the LORD shut him in.
17 Now the flood continued forty days on the earth; and the waters
increased, and floated the ark, and it rose high above the earth.
18 And the waters rose and increased higher on the earth; and the ark
floated on the face of the waters.
19 Finally, the waters rose greatly on the earth; so that all the
high mountains under the whole heaven were covered.
20 The waters rose twenty-two feet high over the mountains.

21 And all flesh died that moved on the earth: birds, livestock,
animals, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth,
and all human beings.
22 All in whose nostrils the breath of life was and that lived
on the dry land, died.
23 He wiped out every living thing that was upon the face of the ground,
man, livestock, creeping things and birds of the heavens. And they were
destroyed from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those who were
with him in the ark.
24 And the waters covered the earth for 150 days.
