                                     Genesis


                                    Chapter 6


  9. These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and
     perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.

 10. And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

 11. The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was
     filled with violence.

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

 13. 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.

 14. Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in
     the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.

 15. And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The
     length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth
     of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.

 16. A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt
     thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set
     in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories
     shalt thou make it.

 17. 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.

 18. 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.

 19. 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.

 20. Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind,
     of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of
     every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.

 21. 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.

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


                                    Chapter 7


  1. 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.

  2. Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the
     male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by
     two, the male and his female.

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

  4. 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.

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

  6. And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters
     was upon the earth.

  7. And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons'
     wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the
     flood.

  8. Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of
     fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,

  9. There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male
     and the female, as God had commanded Noah.

 10. And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the
     flood were upon the earth.

 11. 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.

 12. And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.

 13. In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and
     Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three
     wives of his sons with them, into the ark;

 14. 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.

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

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

 17. And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters
     increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lift up above the
     earth.

 18. And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon
     the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters.

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

 20. Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the
     mountains were covered.

 21. 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:

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

 23. And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the
     face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping
     things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed
     from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that
     were with him in the ark.

 24. And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty
     days.


                                    Chapter 8


  1. 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;

  2. The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven
     were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained;

  3. And the waters returned from off the earth continually: and
     after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were
     abated.

  4. And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth
     day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.

  5. And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month:
     in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the
     tops of the mountains seen.

  6. And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah
     opened the window of the ark which he had made:

  7. And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro,
     until the waters were dried up from off the earth.

  8. Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters
     were abated from off the face of the ground;

  9. 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.

 10. And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth
     the dove out of the ark;

 11. And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her
     mouth was an olive leaf pluckt off: so Noah knew that the
     waters were abated from off the earth.

 12. And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove;
     which returned not again unto him any more.

 13. And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in
     the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were
     dried up from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering
     of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground
     was dry.

 14. And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of
     the month, was the earth dried.

 15. And God spake unto Noah, saying,

 16. Go forth of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and
     thy sons' wives with thee.

 17. 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.

 18. And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his
     sons' wives with him:

 19. Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, and
     whatsoever creepeth upon the earth, after their kinds, went
     forth out of the ark.

 20. And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every
     clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt
     offerings on the altar.

 21. 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.

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


                                    Chapter 9


  1. And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be
     fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.

  2. 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.

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

  4. But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof,
     shall ye not eat.

  5. 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.

  6. Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed:
     for in the image of God made he man.

  7. And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth
     abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein.

  8. And God spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,

  9. And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with
     your seed after you;

 10. 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.

 11. 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.

 12. And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make
     between me and you and every living creature that is with
     you, for perpetual generations:

 13. I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of
     a covenant between me and the earth.

 14. And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the
     earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:

 15. 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.

 16. 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.

 17. 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.
