Noah was six hundred years old when the floodwaters were on the earth.
7
So Noah, with his sons, his wife, and his sons' wives, went into the ark because of the waters of the flood.
8
Of clean animals, of animals that are unclean, of birds, and of everything that creeps on the earth,
9
two by two they went into the ark to Noah, male and female, as God had commanded Noah.
10
And it came to pass after seven days that the waters of the flood were on the earth.
11
In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12
And the rain was on the earth forty days and forty nights.
13
On the very same day Noah and Noah's sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and Noah's wife and the three wives of his sons with them, entered the ark--
14
they and every beast after its kind, all cattle after their kind, every creeping thing that creeps on the earth after its kind, and every bird after its kind, every bird of every sort.
15
And they went into the ark to Noah, two by two, of all flesh in which is the breath of life.
16
So those that entered, male and female of all flesh, went in as God had commanded him; and the Lord shut him in.
