The Lord saw how bad the people on earth were and that everything they thought and planned was evil. But the Lord was pleased with Noah, God said, “I’m going to destroy the whole earth and all it’s people. Get some good wood and build a boat. Put rooms in it and cover it with tar inside and out. I’m going to send a flood that will destroy everything that breathes!
Bring into the boat with you a male and a female of every kind of animal and bird, as well as a male and a female of every reptile. I don’t want them to be destroyed. Take seven pairs of every kind of animal that can be used for sacrifice and one pair of all others. Also take seven pairs of every kind of bird with you.
Noah obeyed God and took a male and a female of each kind of animal and bird into the boat with him. The sky opened like windows, and rain poured down for forty days and nights. When they were all in the boat, God closed the door.
For forty days the rain poured down without stopping. And the water became deeper and deeper, until the boat started floating high above the ground. The Lord destroyed everything that breathed. A hundred fifty days later, the water started going down.
God closed up the sky, and the rain stopped. For one hundred fifty days the water slowly went down. The boat came to rest somewhere in the Ararat mountains
Forty days later Noah opened a window to send out a raven, but it kept flying around until the water had dried up. Noah wanted to find out if the water had gone down, and he sent out a dove. Deep water was still everywhere, and the dove could not find a place to land. So it flew back to the boat. Noah held out his hand and helped it back in. Seven days later Noah sent the dove out again. It returned in the evening, holding in its beak a green leaf from an olive tree.
God said to Noah, “You, your wife, your sons, and your daughters-in-law may now leave the boat. Let out the birds, animals, and reptiles, so they can mate and live all over the earth.” After Noah and his family had gone out of the boat, the living creatures left in groups of their own kind.
