The LORD said to Noah, “Come with all of your household into the ship, for I have seen your righteousness before me in this generation.

You shall take seven pairs of every clean animal with you, the male and his female. Of the animals that are not clean, take two, the male and his female.

Also of the birds of the sky, seven and seven, male and female, to keep seed alive on the surface of all the earth.

In seven days, I will cause it to rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights. I will destroy every living thing that I have made from the surface of the ground.”

Noah did everything that the LORD commanded him.

Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters came on the earth.

Noah went into the ship with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives, because of the floodwaters.

Clean animals, unclean animals, birds, and everything that creeps on the ground

went by pairs to Noah into the ship, male and female, as God commanded Noah.

After the seven days, the floodwaters came on the earth.

In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep burst open, and the sky’s windows opened.

It rained on the earth forty days and forty nights.

In the same day Noah, and Shem, Ham, and Japheth—the sons of Noah—and Noah’s wife and the three wives of his sons with them, entered into the ship—

they, and every animal after its kind, all the livestock 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.

Pairs from all flesh with the breath of life in them went into the ship to Noah.

Those who went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God commanded him; then the LORD shut him in.

The flood was forty days on the earth. The waters increased, and lifted up the ship, and it was lifted up above the earth.

The waters rose, and increased greatly on the earth; and the ship floated on the surface of the waters.

The waters rose very high on the earth. All the high mountains that were under the whole sky were covered.

The waters rose fifteen cubits higher, and the mountains were covered.

All flesh died that moved on the earth, including birds, livestock, animals, every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, and every man.

All on the dry land, in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, died.

Every living thing was destroyed that was on the surface of the ground, including man, livestock, creeping things, and birds of the sky. They were destroyed from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those who were with him in the ship.

The waters flooded the earth one hundred fifty days.

وقالَ اللهُ لِنُوح: «اُدخُلِ السَّفينَةَ أَنتَ وجَميعُ أَهلِكَ، فإِنِّي رأَيتُكَ بارًّا أَمامي في هٰذا الجيل

وتأخُذُ مِن جَميعِ البَهائِمِ الطَّاهِرةِ سَبْعَةً سَبْعَةً، ذُكورًا وإِناثًا، ومِنَ البَهائِمِ غَيرِ الطَّاهِرةِ ٱثْنَينِ، ذَكَرًا وأُنْثى

وتأخُذُ أَيضًا مِن طُيورِ السَّماءِ سَبْعَةً سَبْعَةً، ذُكورًا وإِناثًا، لِحِفْظِ نَسْلِها حَيًّا على وَجهِ الأَرضِ كُلِّها

فإِنَّني، بَعدَ سَبعَةِ أَيَّامٍ، مُمطِرٌ على الأَرضِ أَربَعينَ يَومًا وأَربَعينَ لَيلَةً، وماحٍ عن وَجهِ الأَرضِ كُلَّ كائِنٍ صَنَعتُه»

فعَمِلَ نُوحٌ بِحَسَبِ كُلِّ ما أَمَرَه الرَّبُّ بِه

وكانَ نُوحٌ ٱبنَ سِتِّ مِئَةِ سَنَةٍ حينَ كانَت مِياهُ الطُّوفانِ على الأرض

ودَخَلَ نُوحٌ السَّفينةَ هو وبَنُوه وٱمرَأَتُه ونِسْوَةُ بَنيه معَه هَرَبًا مِن مِياهِ الطُّوفان

ومِنَ البَهائِمِ الطَّاهِرَةِ ومِنَ البَهائِمِ غَيرِ الطَّاهِرَةِ ومِنَ الطُّيورِ ومِن كُلِّ ما يَدِبُّ على الأرض

دَخَلَ السَّفينَةَ ٱثْنانِ ٱثْنانِ إِلى نُوح، ذُكورًا وإِناثًا، كما أَمَرَ اللهُ نُوحًا

وبَعدَ أَيَّام كانت مِياهُ الطُّوفانِ على الأَرض

في السَّنَةِ السِّتِّ مِئَةٍ مِن عُمْرِ نُوح، في الشَّهْرِ الثَّاني في اليَومِ السَّابِعَ عَشَرَ مِنه، في ذلك اليَوم تفجَّرت عُيونُ الغَمْرِ العَظيم وتفتَّحت كُوى السَّماء

وَكَانَ الْمَطَرُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا وَأَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً.

في ذٰلِكَ اليَومِ نَفْسِه دَخَلَ نُوحٌ السَّفينَةَ هو وسامٌ وحامٌ ويافَثُ بَنُوه، وٱمْرَأَةُ نُوح وثَلاثُ نِسْوَةِ بَنيه مَعَهُم

هُم وجَميعُ الوُحوشِ بِأَصْنافِها وجَميعُ البَهائِمِ بِأَصْنافِها وجَميعُ الحَيَواناتِ الَّتي تَدِبُّ على الأَرضِ بِأَصْنافِها وجَميعُ الطُّيورِ بِأَصْنافِها مِن كُلِّ طائِرٍ وكُلِّ ذي جَناح

فَدَخَلَ السَّفينَةَ إِلى نُوحٍ ٱثْنانِ ٱثْنانِ مِن كُلِّ ذي جَسَدٍ فيه رُوحُ حَياة

والدَّاخِلونَ دَخَلوا ذُكورًا وإِناثًا من كُلِّ ذي جَسَد، كَما أَمَرَ اللهُ نُوحًا. وأَغْلَقَ الرَّبُّ علَيه

وكانَ الطُّوفانُ أَربَعينَ يَومًا على الأَرض، فكَثُرَتِ المِياهُ وحَمَلَتِ السَّفينةَ فٱرتَفَعَت عَنِ الأَرض

وٱرتَفَعَتِ المِياهُ جِدًّا وكَثُرَت على الأَرض، فسارَتِ السَّفينَةُ على وَجهِ المِياه

وكَثُرَتِ المِياهُ جِدًّا جِدًّا على الأَرض، فتَغَطَّت جَميعُ الجِبالِ الشَّامِخَةِ الَّتي تَحتَ السَّمَواتِ كُلِّها

فٱرتَفَعَتِ المِياهُ خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ ذِراعًا على الأرض وتغَطَّتِ الجِبال

فهَلَكَ كُلُّ ذي جَسَدٍ يَدِبُّ على الأرضِ مِنَ الطُّيورِ والبَهائِمِ والوُحوش وجَميعِ ما تَعِجُّ بِه الأرض، والنَّاسُ كافَّةً

فماتَ كُلُّ مَن في أَنْفِه نَسَمَةُ حَياةٍ مِن كُلِّ مَن في اليَبَس

ومُحِيَ كُلُّ كائِنٍ على وَجهِ الأَرض مِنَ النَّاسِ حتَّى البَهائِمُ والحَيَواناتُ الدَّابَّةُ وطُيورُ السَّماء، فمُحِيَت مِنَ الأَرض وبَقِيَ نُوحٌ ومَن معَه في السَّفينةِ فقَط

وٱرتَفَعَتِ المِياهُ على الأَرضِ مُدَّةَ مِئَةٍ وخَمْسينَ يَومًا
