1The LORD said to Noah, "Come into the ark, you and all your household, for I consider you godly among this generation.1וַיֹּ֤אמֶר יְהוָה֙ לְנֹ֔חַ בֹּֽא־ אַתָּ֥ה וְכָל־ בֵּיתְךָ֖ אֶל־ הַתֵּבָ֑ה כִּֽי־ אֹתְךָ֥ רָאִ֛יתִי צַדִּ֥יק לְפָנַ֖י בַּדּ֥וֹר הַזֶּֽה׃
2You must take with you seven of every kind of clean animal, the male and its mate, two of every kind of unclean animal, the male and its mate,2מִכֹּ֣ל ׀ הַבְּהֵמָ֣ה הַטְּהוֹרָ֗ה תִּֽקַּח־ לְךָ֛ שִׁבְעָ֥ה שִׁבְעָ֖ה אִ֣ישׁ וְאִשְׁתּ֑וֹ וּמִן־ הַבְּהֵמָ֡ה אֲ֠שֶׁר לֹ֣א טְהֹרָ֥ה הִ֛וא שְׁנַ֖יִם אִ֥ישׁ וְאִשְׁתּֽוֹ׃
3and also seven of every kind of bird in the sky, male and female, to preserve their offspring on the face of the earth.3גַּ֣ם מֵע֧וֹף הַשָּׁמַ֛יִם שִׁבְעָ֥ה שִׁבְעָ֖ה זָכָ֣ר וּנְקֵבָ֑ה לְחַיּ֥וֹת זֶ֖רַע עַל־ פְּנֵ֥י כָל־ הָאָֽרֶץ׃
4For in seven days I will cause it to rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights, and I will wipe from the face of the ground every living thing that I have made." 4כִּי֩ לְיָמִ֨ים ע֜וֹד שִׁבְעָ֗ה אָֽנֹכִי֙ מַמְטִ֣יר עַל־ הָאָ֔רֶץ אַרְבָּעִ֣ים י֔וֹם וְאַרְבָּעִ֖ים לָ֑יְלָה וּמָחִ֗יתִי אֶֽת־ כָּל־ הַיְקוּם֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר עָשִׂ֔יתִי מֵעַ֖ל פְּנֵ֥י הָֽאֲדָמָֽה׃
5And Noah did all that the LORD commanded him. 5וַיַּ֖עַשׂ נֹ֑חַ כְּכֹ֥ל אֲשֶׁר־ צִוָּ֖הוּ יְהוָֽה׃
6Noah was 600 years old when the floodwaters engulfed the earth.6וְנֹ֕חַ בֶּן־ שֵׁ֥שׁ מֵא֖וֹת שָׁנָ֑ה וְהַמַּבּ֣וּל הָיָ֔ה מַ֖יִם עַל־ הָאָֽרֶץ׃
7Noah entered the ark along with his sons, his wife, and his sons' wives because of the floodwaters.7וַיָּ֣בֹא נֹ֗חַ וּ֠בָנָיו וְאִשְׁתּ֧וֹ וּנְשֵֽׁי־ בָנָ֛יו אִתּ֖וֹ אֶל־ הַתֵּבָ֑ה מִפְּנֵ֖י מֵ֥י הַמַּבּֽוּל׃
8Pairs of clean animals, of unclean animals, of birds, and of everything that creeps along the ground,8מִן־ הַבְּהֵמָה֙ הַטְּהוֹרָ֔ה וּמִן־ הַ֨בְּהֵמָ֔ה אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֵינֶ֖נָּה טְהֹרָ֑ה וּמִ֨ן־ הָע֔וֹף וְכֹ֥ל אֲשֶׁר־ רֹמֵ֖שׂ עַל־ הָֽאֲדָמָֽה׃
9male and female, came into the ark to Noah, just as God had commanded him.9שְׁנַ֨יִם שְׁנַ֜יִם בָּ֧אוּ אֶל־ נֹ֛חַ אֶל־ הַתֵּבָ֖ה זָכָ֣ר וּנְקֵבָ֑ה כַּֽאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה אֱלֹהִ֖ים אֶת־ נֹֽחַ׃
10And after seven days the floodwaters engulfed the earth. 10וַֽיְהִ֖י לְשִׁבְעַ֣ת הַיָּמִ֑ים וּמֵ֣י הַמַּבּ֔וּל הָי֖וּ עַל־ הָאָֽרֶץ׃
11In 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 floodgates of the heavens were opened.11בִּשְׁנַ֨ת שֵׁשׁ־ מֵא֤וֹת שָׁנָה֙ לְחַיֵּי־ נֹ֔חַ בַּחֹ֙דֶשׁ֙ הַשֵּׁנִ֔י בְּשִׁבְעָֽה־ עָשָׂ֥ר י֖וֹם לַחֹ֑דֶשׁ בַּיּ֣וֹם הַזֶּ֗ה נִבְקְעוּ֙ כָּֽל־ מַעְיְנֹת֙ תְּה֣וֹם רַבָּ֔ה וַאֲרֻבֹּ֥ת הַשָּׁמַ֖יִם נִפְתָּֽחוּ׃
12And the rain fell on the earth forty days and forty nights. 12וַֽיְהִ֥י הַגֶּ֖שֶׁם עַל־ הָאָ֑רֶץ אַרְבָּעִ֣ים י֔וֹם וְאַרְבָּעִ֖ים לָֽיְלָה׃
13On that very day Noah entered the ark, accompanied by his sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, along with his wife and his sons' three wives.13בְּעֶ֨צֶם הַיּ֤וֹם הַזֶּה֙ בָּ֣א נֹ֔חַ וְשֵׁם־ וְחָ֥ם וָיֶ֖פֶת בְּנֵי־ נֹ֑חַ וְאֵ֣שֶׁת נֹ֗חַ וּשְׁלֹ֧שֶׁת נְשֵֽׁי־ בָנָ֛יו אִתָּ֖ם אֶל־ הַתֵּבָֽה׃
14They entered, along with every living creature after its kind, every animal after its kind, every creeping thing that creeps on the earth after its kind, and every bird after its kind, everything with wings.14הֵ֜מָּה וְכָל־ הַֽחַיָּ֣ה לְמִינָ֗הּ וְכָל־ הַבְּהֵמָה֙ לְמִינָ֔הּ וְכָל־ הָרֶ֛מֶשׂ הָרֹמֵ֥שׂ עַל־ הָאָ֖רֶץ לְמִינֵ֑הוּ וְכָל־ הָע֣וֹף לְמִינֵ֔הוּ כֹּ֖ל צִפּ֥וֹר כָּל־ כָּנָֽף׃
15Pairs of all creatures that have the breath of life came into the ark to Noah.15וַיָּבֹ֥אוּ אֶל־ נֹ֖חַ אֶל־ הַתֵּבָ֑ה שְׁנַ֤יִם שְׁנַ֙יִם֙ מִכָּל־ הַבָּשָׂ֔ר אֲשֶׁר־ בּ֖וֹ ר֥וּחַ חַיִּֽים׃
16Those that entered were male and female, just as God commanded him. Then the LORD shut him in. 16וְהַבָּאִ֗ים זָכָ֨ר וּנְקֵבָ֤ה מִכָּל־ בָּשָׂר֙ בָּ֔אוּ כַּֽאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה אֹת֖וֹ אֱלֹהִ֑ים וַיִּסְגֹּ֥ר יְהוָ֖ה בַּֽעֲדֽוֹ׃
17The flood engulfed the earth for forty days. As the waters increased, they lifted the ark and raised it above the earth.17וַֽיְהִ֧י הַמַּבּ֛וּל אַרְבָּעִ֥ים י֖וֹם עַל־ הָאָ֑רֶץ וַיִּרְבּ֣וּ הַמַּ֗יִם וַיִּשְׂאוּ֙ אֶת־ הַתֵּבָ֔ה וַתָּ֖רָם מֵעַ֥ל הָאָֽרֶץ׃
18The waters completely overwhelmed the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the waters.18וַיִּגְבְּר֥וּ הַמַּ֛יִם וַיִּרְבּ֥וּ מְאֹ֖ד עַל־ הָאָ֑רֶץ וַתֵּ֥לֶךְ הַתֵּבָ֖ה עַל־ פְּנֵ֥י הַמָּֽיִם׃
19The waters completely inundated the earth so that even all the high mountains under the entire sky were covered.19וְהַמַּ֗יִם גָּֽבְר֛וּ מְאֹ֥ד מְאֹ֖ד עַל־ הָאָ֑רֶץ וַיְכֻסּ֗וּ כָּל־ הֶֽהָרִים֙ הַגְּבֹהִ֔ים אֲשֶׁר־ תַּ֖חַת כָּל־ הַשָּׁמָֽיִם׃
20The waters rose more than twenty feet above the mountains.20חֲמֵ֨שׁ עֶשְׂרֵ֤ה אַמָּה֙ מִלְמַ֔עְלָה גָּבְר֖וּ הַמָּ֑יִם וַיְכֻסּ֖וּ הֶהָרִֽים׃
21And all living things that moved on the earth died, including the birds, domestic animals, wild animals, all the creatures that swarm over the earth, and all humankind.21וַיִּגְוַ֞ע כָּל־ בָּשָׂ֣ר ׀ הָרֹמֵ֣שׂ עַל־ הָאָ֗רֶץ בָּע֤וֹף וּבַבְּהֵמָה֙ וּבַ֣חַיָּ֔ה וּבְכָל־ הַשֶּׁ֖רֶץ הַשֹּׁרֵ֣ץ עַל־ הָאָ֑רֶץ וְכֹ֖ל הָאָדָֽם׃
22Everything on dry land that had the breath of life in its nostrils died.22כֹּ֡ל אֲשֶׁר֩ נִשְׁמַת־ ר֨וּחַ חַיִּ֜ים בְּאַפָּ֗יו מִכֹּ֛ל אֲשֶׁ֥ר בֶּחָֽרָבָ֖ה מֵֽתוּ׃
23So the LORD destroyed every living thing that was on the surface of the ground, including people, animals, creatures that creep along the ground, and birds of the sky. They were wiped off the earth. Only Noah and those who were with him in the ark survived.23וַיִּ֜מַח אֶֽת־ כָּל־ הַיְק֣וּם ׀ אֲשֶׁ֣ר ׀ עַל־ פְּנֵ֣י הָֽאֲדָמָ֗ה מֵאָדָ֤ם עַד־ בְּהֵמָה֙ עַד־ רֶ֙מֶשׂ֙ וְעַד־ ע֣וֹף הַשָּׁמַ֔יִם וַיִּמָּח֖וּ מִן־ הָאָ֑רֶץ וַיִשָּׁ֧אֶר‪‬ אַךְ־ נֹ֛חַ וַֽאֲשֶׁ֥ר אִתּ֖וֹ בַּתֵּבָֽה׃
24The waters prevailed over the earth for 150 days. 24וַיִּגְבְּר֥וּ הַמַּ֖יִם עַל־ הָאָ֑רֶץ חֲמִשִּׁ֥ים וּמְאַ֖ת יֽוֹם׃
