13 God said to Noah, |I have decided to put an end to all people because the earth is full of their violence. Now I'm going to destroy them along with the earth. 14 Make yourself a ship of cypress wood. Make rooms in the ship and coat it inside and out with tar. 15 This is how you should build it: the ship is to be 450 feet long, 75 feet wide, and 45 feet high. 16 Make a roof for the ship, and leave an 18-inch-high opening at the top. Put a door in the side of the ship. Build the ship with lower, middle, and upper decks. 17 I'm about to send a flood on the earth to destroy all people under the sky-every living, breathing human. Everything on earth will die. Genesis 6:13-17, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
