And all the years of Enoch's life were three hundred and sixty-five:

And Methuselah was a hundred and eighty-seven years old when he became the father of Lamech:

And after the birth of Lamech, Methuselah went on living for seven hundred and eighty-two years, and had sons and daughters:

And all the years of Methuselah's life were nine hundred and sixty-nine: and he came to his end.

And he gave him the name of Noah, saying, Truly, he will give us rest from our trouble and the hard work of our hands, because of the earth which was cursed by God.

And after the birth of Noah, Lamech went on living for five hundred and ninety-five years, and had sons and daughters:

And all the years of Lamech's life were seven hundred and seventy-seven: and he came to his end.

And when Noah was five hundred years old, he became the father of Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

The sons of God saw that the daughters of men were fair; and they took wives for themselves from those who were pleasing to them.

And the Lord said, My spirit will not be in man for ever, for he is only flesh; so the days of his life will be a hundred and twenty years.

There were men of great strength and size on the earth in those days; and after that, when the sons of God had connection with the daughters of men, they gave birth to children: these were the great men of old days, the men of great name.

And the Lord saw that the sin of man was great on the earth, and that all the thoughts of his heart were evil.

And the Lord said, I will take away man, whom I have made, from the face of the earth, even man and beast and that which goes on the earth and every bird of the air; for I have sorrow for having made them.

But Noah had grace in the eyes of God.

These are the generations of Noah. Noah was an upright man and without sin in his generation: he went in the ways of God.

And the earth was evil in God's eyes and full of violent ways.

And God, looking on the earth, saw that it was evil: for the way of all flesh had become evil on the earth.

And God said to Noah, The end of all flesh has come; the earth is full of their violent doings, and now I will put an end to them with the earth.

Make for yourself an ark of gopher wood with rooms in it, and make it safe from the water inside and out.

You are to put a window in the ark, a cubit from the roof, and a door in the side of it, and you are to make it with a lower and second and third floors.

For truly, I will send a great flow of waters over the earth, for the destruction from under the heaven of all flesh in which is the breath of life; everything on the earth will come to an end.

But with you I will make an agreement; and you will come into the ark, you and your sons and your wife and your sons' wives with you.

And you will take with you into the ark two of every sort of living thing, and keep them safe with you; they will be male and female.

Two of every sort of bird and cattle and of every sort of living thing which goes on the earth will you take with you to keep them from destruction.

And make a store of every sort of food for yourself and them.

Of every clean beast you will take seven males and seven females, and of the beasts which are not clean, two, the male and his female;

And of the birds of the air, seven males and seven females, so that their seed may still be living on the face of the earth.

For after seven days I will send rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights, for the destruction of every living thing which I have made on the face of the earth.

And Noah, with his sons and his wife and his sons' wives, went into the ark because of the flowing of the waters.

Of clean beasts, and of beasts which are not clean, and of birds, and of everything which goes on the earth,

In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, all the fountains of the great deep came bursting through, and the windows of heaven were open;

On the same day Noah, with Shem, Ham, and Japheth, his sons, and his wife and his sons' wives, went into the ark;

And with them, every sort of beast and cattle, and every sort of thing which goes on the earth, and every sort of bird.

They went with Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh in which is the breath of life.

Male and female of all flesh went in, as God had said, and the ark was shut by the Lord.

And the waters overcame everything and were increased greatly on the earth, and the ark was resting on the face of the waters.

Everything on the dry land, in which was the breath of life, came to its end.

Every living thing on the face of all the earth, man and cattle and things moving on the face of the earth, and birds of the air, came to destruction: only Noah and those who were with him in the ark, were kept from death.

And the fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were shut, and the rain from heaven was stopped.

And the waters went slowly back from the earth, and at the end of a hundred and fifty days the waters were lower.

And on the seventeenth day of the seventh month the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.

And still the waters went on falling, till on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains were seen.

Then, after forty days, through the open window of the ark which he had made,

And he sent out a dove, to see if the waters had gone from the face of the earth;

And the dove came back at evening, and in her mouth was an olive-leaf broken off: so Noah was certain that the waters had gone down on the earth.

And in the six hundred and first year, on the first day of the first month, the waters were dry on the earth: and Noah took the cover off the ark and saw that the face of the earth was dry.

And on the twenty-seventh day of the second month the earth was dry.

Go out of the ark, you and your wife and your sons and your sons' wives.

And Noah went out with his sons and his wife and his sons' wives;

And every beast and bird and every living thing of every sort which goes on the earth, went out of the ark.

And when the sweet smell came up to the Lord, he said in his heart, I will not again put a curse on the earth because of man, for the thoughts of man's heart are evil from his earliest days; never again will I send destruction on all living things as I have done.

While the earth goes on, seed time and the getting in of the grain, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, will not come to an end.

And the fear of you will be strong in every beast of the earth and every bird of the air; everything which goes on the land, and all the fishes of the sea, are given into your hands.

And for your blood, which is your life, will I take payment; from every beast I will take it, and from every man will I take payment for the blood of his brother-man.

And with every living thing with you, all birds and cattle and every beast of the earth which comes out of the ark with you.

And I will make my agreement with you; never again will all flesh be cut off by the waters; never again will the waters come over all the earth for its destruction.

And God said, This is the sign of the agreement which I make between me and you and every living thing with you, for all future generations:

I will put my bow in the cloud and it will be for a sign of the agreement between me and the earth.

And I will keep in mind the agreement between me and you and every living thing; and never again will there be a great flow of waters causing destruction to all flesh.

And God said to Noah, This is the sign of the agreement which I have made between me and all flesh on the earth.

And the sons of Noah who went out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth; and Ham is the father of Canaan.

These three were the sons of Noah and from them all the earth was peopled.

And he took of the wine of it and was overcome by drink; and he was uncovered in his tent.

And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father unclothed, and gave news of it to his two brothers outside.

Cursed be Canaan; let him be a servant of servants to his brothers.

And he said, Praise to the Lord, the God of Shem; let Canaan be his servant.

May God make Japheth great, and let his living-place be in the tents of Shem, and let Canaan be his servant.

And Noah went on living three hundred and fifty years after the great flow of waters;

all the years of his life were nine hundred and fifty: and he came to his end.

Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: these are the sons which they had after the great flow of waters

The sons of Japheth: Gomer and Magog and Madai and Javan and Tubal and Meshech and Tiras.

And the sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz and Riphath and Togarmah.

And the sons of Javan: Elishah and Tarshish, the Kittim and the Dodanim.

From these came the nations of the sea-lands, with their different families and languages.

And the sons of Ham: Cush and Mizraim and Put and Canaan.

And the sons of Cush: Seba and Havilah and Sabtah and Raamah and Sabteca; and the sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan.

And Cush was the father of Nimrod, who was the first of the great men of the earth.

And at the first, his kingdom was Babel and Erech and Accad and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

And Mizraim was the father of the Ludim and Anamim and Lehabim and Naphtuhim;

And Canaan was the father of Zidon, who was his oldest son, and Heth,

And the Arvadite and the Zemarite and the Hamathite; after that the families of the Canaanites went far and wide in all directions;

Their country stretching from Zidon to Gaza, in the direction of Gerar; and to Lasha, in the direction of Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboiim.

All these, with their different families, languages, lands, and nations, are the offspring of Ham.

And Shem, the older brother of Japheth, the father of the children of Eber, had other sons in addition.

These are the sons of Shem: Elam and Asshur and Arpachshad and Lud and Aram.

And the sons of Aram: Uz and Hul and Gether and Mash.

And Arpachshad became the father of Shelah; and Shelah became the father of Eber.

And Eber had two sons: the name of the one was Peleg, because in his time the peoples of the earth became separate; and his brother's name was Joktan.

And Joktan was the father of Almodad and Sheleph and Hazarmaveth and Jerah

And Ophir and Havilah and Jobab; all these were the sons of Joktan.

And their country was from Mesha, in the direction of Sephar, the mountain of the east.

These, with their families and their languages and their lands and their nations, are the offspring of Shem.

These are the families of the sons of Noah, in the order of their generations and their nations: from these came all the nations of the earth after the great flow of waters.

And it came about that in their wandering from the east, they came to a stretch of flat country in the land of Shinar, and there they made their living-place.

And they said, Come, let us make a town, and a tower whose top will go up as high as heaven; and let us make a great name for ourselves, so that we may not be wanderers over the face of the earth.

And the Lord came down to see the town and the tower which the children of men were building.

And the Lord said, See, they are all one people and have all one language; and this is only the start of what they may do: and now it will not be possible to keep them from any purpose of theirs.

Come, let us go down and take away the sense of their language, so that they will not be able to make themselves clear to one another.

So the Lord God sent them away into every part of the earth: and they gave up building their town.

So it was named Babel, because there the Lord took away the sense of all languages and from there the Lord sent them away over all the face of the earth.
