CEB

ESV

1 The LORD said to Noah, "Go into the ark with your whole household, because among this generation I've seen that you are a moral man.
1 Then the Lord said to Noah, “Go into the ark, you and all your household, for I have seen that you are righteous before me in this generation.
2 From every clean animal, take seven pairs, a male and his mate; and from every unclean animal, take one pair, a male and his mate;
2 Take with you seven pairs of all clean animals, the male and his mate, and a pair of the animals that are not clean, the male and his mate,
3 and from the birds in the sky as well, take seven pairs, male and female, so that their offspring will survive throughout the earth.
3 and seven pairs of the birds of the heavens also, male and female, to keep their offspring alive on the face of all the earth.
4 In seven days from now I will send rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights. I will wipe off from the fertile land every living thing that I have made."
4 For in seven days I will send rain on the earth forty days and forty nights, and every living thing that I have made I will blot out from the face of the ground. ”

11 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 forth, and the windows of the heavens were opened.
12 It rained on the earth forty days and forty nights.

13 On the very same day Noah and his sons, Shem and Ham and Japheth, and Noah’s wife and the three wives of his sons with them entered the ark,
14 They and every kind of animal—every kind of livestock, every kind that crawls on the ground, every kind of bird—
14 they and every beast, according to its kind, and all the livestock according to their kinds, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, according to its kind, and every bird, according to its kind, every winged creature.
15 they came to Noah and entered the ark, two of every creature that breathes.
15 They went into the ark with Noah, two and two of all flesh in which there was the breath of life.

20 The waters rose twenty-three feet high, covering the mountains.

21 And all flesh died that moved on the earth, birds, livestock, beasts, all swarming creatures that swarm on the earth, and all mankind.
22 Everything on dry land with life's breath in its nostrils died.
