And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and nine years: and he died.

And he named him Noah, saying, “This one will bring us relief from the agonizing labor of our hands, caused by the ground the Lord has cursed.”

And all the days of Lamech were seven hundred seventy and seven years: and he died.

That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.

And the Lord said, “My Spirit will not remain with mankind forever, because they are corrupt. Their days will be 120 years.”

And Jehovah seeth that abundant is the wickedness of man in the earth, and every imagination of the thoughts of his heart only evil all the day;

And Jehovah will lament that he made man in the earth, and he will be grieved at his heart

And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.

And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.

And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

This is how you are to make it: The ark will be 450 feet long, 75 feet wide, and 45 feet high.

And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die.

But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.

And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female.

Two of everything—from the birds according to their kinds, from the livestock according to their kinds, and from the animals that crawl on the ground according to their kinds—will come to you so that you can keep them alive.

And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them.

Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.

And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.

Of all clean beasts thou shalt take to thee by sevens, a male and its female; but of the beasts that are not clean two, a male and its female.

Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.

For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.

And Noah did according unto all that the LORD commanded him.

And Noah was six hundred years old when the waters came flowing over all the earth.

And of clean beasts and of beasts that were unclean and of birds and of all that creepeth upon the earth,

And after the seven days, the waters came over all the earth.

In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.

They, and every beast after his kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind, and every fowl after his kind, every bird of every sort.

And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life.

And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in.

And for forty days the waters were over all the earth; and the waters were increased so that the ark was lifted up high over the earth.

The flood waters continued to surge, increasing throughout the earth, while the ark floated on the surface of the flood water.

And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered.

The waters went fifteen cubits higher, till all the mountains were covered.

And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man:

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

And wiped away is all the substance that is on the face of the ground, from man unto beast, unto creeping thing, and unto fowl of the heavens; yea, they are wiped away from the earth, and only Noah is left, and those who are with him in the ark;

And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that was with him in the ark: and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters asswaged;

But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him into the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth: then he put forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark.

And he will wait yet again other seven days, and he will add to send forth the dove from the ark.

And the dove will come in to him at the time of evening, and lo, an olive leaf plucked off, in her mouth. And Noah will know that the waters were diminished from over the earth.

And he will wait yet again, other seven days, and will send forth the dove; and she will not add to turn back to him yet again.

And it shall be in the one and six hundredth year, in the beginning, in one of the month, the waters were diminished from over the earth: and Noah will turn away the covering of the ark, and he will see and behold the face of the earth was dry.

And God will speak to Noah, saying,

every living thing that is with thee, of all flesh, among fowl, and among cattle, and among every creeping thing which is creeping on the earth, bring out with thee;

Bring forth with thee every living thing that is with thee, of all flesh, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth; that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth.

All the animals, all the creeping things, and all the fowl everything that moves on the earth, after their kinds, went out of the ark.

And Noah built an altar to Jehovah; and took of every clean animal, and of all clean fowl, and offered up burnt-offerings on the altar.

And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.

While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.

And God will praise Noah and his sons, and will say to them, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth.

And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, upon all that moveth upon the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered.

Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.

And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man.

Whoever sheds man’s blood,
his blood will be shed by man,
for God made man in His image.

And God will speak to Noah and to his sons, saying,

Truly, I will make my agreement with you and with your seed after you,

And with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth.

And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.

And God said, “This is the token (visible symbol, memorial) of the [solemn] covenant which I am making between Me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations;

I have placed My bow in the clouds, and it will be a sign of the covenant between Me and the earth.

It will happen, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow will be seen in the cloud,

And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.

And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.

And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.

These are the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth overspread.

And Noah will begin a man of the earth, and he will plant a vineyard.

And he will drink of the wine and he will be intoxicated, and will be uncovered within his tent

And Ham the father of Canaan will see the nakedness of his father, and he will declare to his two brethren without

And Shem and Japheth will take a garment and they will put upon their two shoulders, and will go backwards and will cover the nakedness of their father: and their faces backwards, and they will not see the nakedness of their father.

And Noah will awake from his wine and will know what his young son did to him.

he said:

Canaan will be cursed.
He will be the lowest of slaves to his brothers.

He also said:

Praise the Lord, the God of Shem;
Canaan will be his slave.

God will extend Japheth;
he will dwell in the tents of Shem;
Canaan will be his slave.

And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years: and he died.

He was a strong taker of prey before the face of Jehovah; for this he will say, As Nimrod the strong hunter before the face of Jehovah.

and [Nimrod built] Resen, which is between Nineveh and Calah; all these [combined to form] the great city [Nineveh].

And Caanan will beget Sidon, his first-born, 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;

and the borders of Canaan extended from Sidon all the way to Gerar as far as Gaza, and all the way to Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha.

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

Unto Shem also, the father of all the children of Eber, the brother of Japheth the elder, even to him were children born.

And Joktan will beget Ahnodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah,

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

Their dwelling place was from Mesha all the way to Sephar in the eastern hills.

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 the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.

And they said one to another, Come, let us make bricks, burning them well. And they had bricks for stone, putting them together with sticky earth.

And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.

And Jehovah will come down to see the city, and the tower which the sons of men built

And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.

Come, let us go down and confuse their language there, so that they will not understand {each other's language}."

So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.

Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.

These the generations of Shem: Shem the son of a hundred years, and he will beget Arphaeshad, two years after the flood.

And Arphaeshad will live five and thirty years, and will beget Shelah.

And Arphaeshad shall live after his begetting Shelah, three years and four hundred years, and he will beget sons and daughters.

And Shelah will live thirty years and will beget Eber.

And Shelah will live after his begetting Eber, three years and four hundred years, and will beget sons and daughters.

And Eber will live four and thirty years and will beget Peleg.

And Eber will live after his begetting Peleg, thirty years and four hundred years, and will beget sons and daughters.
