1 Disse Jeová a Noé: Entra na arca, tu e toda a tua casa, porque vi que eras justo diante de mim nesta geração.
2 De todos os animais limpos levarás contigo de sete em sete, o macho e sua fêmea; e dos animais que não são limpos, dois, o macho e sua fêmea;
3 também das aves do céu, de sete em sete, macho e fêmea; para se conservar em vida semente sobre a face da terra.
4 Porque, passados ainda sete dias, eu farei chover sobre a terra quarenta dias e quarenta noites, e farei desaparecer da face da terra todas as criaturas que fiz.
5 Fez Noé segundo tudo o que Jeová lhe ordenara.
6 Noé tinha seiscentos anos de idade, quando o dilúvio de águas veio sobre a terra.
7 Entrou na arca Noé com seus filhos, sua mulher e as mulheres de seus filhos, por causa das águas do dilúvio.
8 Dos animais limpos, e dos animais que não são limpos, e das aves, e de tudo o que se arrasta sobre a terra,
9 entraram de dois em dois na arca, macho e fêmea, como Deus ordenara a Noé.
10 Passados os sete dias, vieram sobre a terra as águas do dilúvio.
11 No ano seiscentos da vida de Noé, no mês segundo, no dia dezessete do mês, nesse dia romperam-se as fontes do grande abismo, e abriram-se as janelas do céu.
12 Caiu copiosa chuva sobre a terra quarenta dias e quarenta noites.
13 Nesse mesmo dia entraram na arca Noé, seus filhos Sem, Cão e Jafé, sua mulher e as mulheres de seus filhos.
14 Entraram estes com todo o animal segundo as suas espécies, todo o gado segundo as suas espécies, todo o réptil que se arrasta sobre a terra segundo as suas espécies, e toda a ave segundo as suas espécies, pássaro de toda qualidade.
15 Entraram a Noé na arca a dois e dois de toda a carne, em que havia espírito de vida.
16 Os que entraram, entraram macho e fêmea de toda a carne, como Deus lhe ordenará; e Jeová o fechou dentro.
17 Durou o dilúvio quarenta dias sobre a terra; as águas cresceram e levantaram a arca, que se elevou por cima da terra.
18 Prevaleceram as águas, e cresceram grandemente sobre a terra; mas a arca andava sobre as águas.
19 As águas prevaleceram excessivamente sobre a terra, e todos os altos montes que havia debaixo do céu foram cobertos.
20 Quinze cúbitos por cima deles prevaleceram as águas, e os montes foram cobertos.
21 Pereceu toda a carne que se movia sobre a terra, tanto aves, como gado, animais, todo o réptil que se arrasta sobre a terra e todo o homem:
22 tudo o que tinha o fôlego do espírito de vida em seus narizes, tudo o que havia na terra seca morreu.
23 Foram destruídas todas as criaturas que havia sobre a face da terra, desde o homem até o gado, até o réptil e até as aves do céu; pereceram da terra: foi deixado somente Noé, e os que com ele estavam na arca.
24 Prevaleceram as águas sobre a terra cento e cinqüenta dias.
1 And the Lord said to Noah, Take all your family and go into the ark, for you only in this generation have I seen to be upright.
2 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;
3 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.
4 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.
5 And Noah did everything which the Lord said he was to do.
6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the waters came flowing over all the earth.
7 And Noah, with his sons and his wife and his sons' wives, went into the ark because of the flowing of the waters.
8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts which are not clean, and of birds, and of everything which goes on the earth,
9 In twos, male and female, they went into the ark with Noah, as God had said.
10 And after the seven days, the waters came over all the earth.
11 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;
12 And rain came down on the earth for forty days and forty nights.
13 On the same day Noah, with Shem, Ham, and Japheth, his sons, and his wife and his sons' wives, went into the ark;
14 And with them, every sort of beast and cattle, and every sort of thing which goes on the earth, and every sort of bird.
15 They went with Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh in which is the breath of life.
16 Male and female of all flesh went in, as God had said, and the ark was shut by the Lord.
17 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.
18 And the waters overcame everything and were increased greatly on the earth, and the ark was resting on the face of the waters.
19 And the waters overcame everything on the earth; and all the mountains under heaven were covered.
20 The waters went fifteen cubits higher, till all the mountains were covered.
21 And destruction came on every living thing moving on the earth, birds and cattle and beasts and everything which went on the earth, and every man.
22 Everything on the dry land, in which was the breath of life, came to its end.
23 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.
24 And the waters were over the earth a hundred and fifty days.
