Genesis 6:16-22

16 Make an opening around the top of the boat that is eighteen inches high from the edge of the roof down. Put a door in the side of the boat. Make an upper, middle, and lower deck in it.
17 I will bring a flood of water on the earth to destroy all living things that live under the sky, including everything that has the breath of life. Everything on the earth will die.
18 But I will make an agreement with you -- you, your sons, your wife, and your sons' wives will all go into the boat.
19 Also, you must bring into the boat two of every living thing, male and female. Keep them alive with you.
20 Two of every kind of bird, animal, and crawling thing will come to you to be kept alive.
21 Also gather some of every kind of food and store it on the boat as food for you and the animals."
22 Noah did everything that God commanded him.
