1Then the LORD said to Noah, "Enter the ark, you and all your household, for I have seen that you alone are righteous before Me in this generation.1וַיֹּ֤אמֶר יְהוָה֙ לְנֹ֔חַ בֹּֽא־ אַתָּ֥ה וְכָל־ בֵּיתְךָ֖ אֶל־ הַתֵּבָ֑ה כִּֽי־ אֹתְךָ֥ רָאִ֛יתִי צַדִּ֥יק לְפָנַ֖י בַּדּ֥וֹר הַזֶּֽה׃
2You are to take with you seven pairs, a male and its female, of all the clean animals, and two of the animals that are not clean, a male and its female, 2מִכֹּ֣ל ׀ הַבְּהֵמָ֣ה הַטְּהוֹרָ֗ה תִּֽקַּח־ לְךָ֛ שִׁבְעָ֥ה שִׁבְעָ֖ה אִ֣ישׁ וְאִשְׁתּ֑וֹ וּמִן־ הַבְּהֵמָ֡ה אֲ֠שֶׁר לֹ֣א טְהֹרָ֥ה הִ֛וא שְׁנַ֖יִם אִ֥ישׁ וְאִשְׁתּֽוֹ׃
3and seven pairs, male and female, of the birds of the sky--in order to keep offspring alive on the face of the whole earth. 3גַּ֣ם מֵע֧וֹף הַשָּׁמַ֛יִם שִׁבְעָ֥ה שִׁבְעָ֖ה זָכָ֣ר וּנְקֵבָ֑ה לְחַיּ֥וֹת זֶ֖רַע עַל־ פְּנֵ֥י כָל־ הָאָֽרֶץ׃
4Seven days from now I will make it rain on the earth 40 days and 40 nights, and I will wipe off from the face of the earth every living thing 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 everything that the LORD commanded him. 5וַיַּ֖עַשׂ נֹ֑חַ כְּכֹ֥ל אֲשֶׁר־ צִוָּ֖הוּ יְהוָֽה׃
6Noah was 600 years old when the flood came and water covered the earth. 6וְנֹ֕חַ בֶּן־ שֵׁ֥שׁ מֵא֖וֹת שָׁנָ֑ה וְהַמַּבּ֣וּל הָיָ֔ה מַ֖יִם עַל־ הָאָֽרֶץ׃
7So Noah, his sons, his wife, and his sons' wives entered the ark because of the waters of the flood. 7וַיָּ֣בֹא נֹ֗חַ וּ֠בָנָיו וְאִשְׁתּ֧וֹ וּנְשֵֽׁי־ בָנָ֛יו אִתּ֖וֹ אֶל־ הַתֵּבָ֑ה מִפְּנֵ֖י מֵ֥י הַמַּבּֽוּל׃
8From the clean animals, unclean animals, birds, and every creature that crawls on the ground, 8מִן־ הַבְּהֵמָה֙ הַטְּהוֹרָ֔ה וּמִן־ הַ֨בְּהֵמָ֔ה אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֵינֶ֖נָּה טְהֹרָ֑ה וּמִ֨ן־ הָע֔וֹף וְכֹ֥ל אֲשֶׁר־ רֹמֵ֖שׂ עַל־ הָֽאֲדָמָֽה׃
9two of each, male and female, entered the ark with Noah, just as God had commanded him. 9שְׁנַ֨יִם שְׁנַ֜יִם בָּ֧אוּ אֶל־ נֹ֛חַ אֶל־ הַתֵּבָ֖ה זָכָ֣ר וּנְקֵבָ֑ה כַּֽאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה אֱלֹהִ֖ים אֶת־ נֹֽחַ׃
10Seven days later the waters of the flood came on 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 sources of the watery depths burst open, the floodgates of the sky 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 40 days and 40 nights. 12וַֽיְהִ֥י הַגֶּ֖שֶׁם עַל־ הָאָ֑רֶץ אַרְבָּעִ֣ים י֔וֹם וְאַרְבָּעִ֖ים לָֽיְלָה׃
13On that same day Noah along with his sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, Noah's wife, and his three sons' wives entered the ark with him. 13בְּעֶ֨צֶם הַיּ֤וֹם הַזֶּה֙ בָּ֣א נֹ֔חַ וְשֵׁם־ וְחָ֥ם וָיֶ֖פֶת בְּנֵי־ נֹ֑חַ וְאֵ֣שֶׁת נֹ֗חַ וּשְׁלֹ֧שֶׁת נְשֵֽׁי־ בָנָ֛יו אִתָּ֖ם אֶל־ הַתֵּבָֽה׃
14They entered it with all the wildlife according to their kinds, all livestock according to their kinds, the creatures that crawl on the earth according to their kinds, all birds, every fowl, and everything with wings according to their kinds. 14הֵ֜מָּה וְכָל־ הַֽחַיָּ֣ה לְמִינָ֗הּ וְכָל־ הַבְּהֵמָה֙ לְמִינָ֔הּ וְכָל־ הָרֶ֛מֶשׂ הָרֹמֵ֥שׂ עַל־ הָאָ֖רֶץ לְמִינֵ֑הוּ וְכָל־ הָע֣וֹף לְמִינֵ֔הוּ כֹּ֖ל צִפּ֥וֹר כָּל־ כָּנָֽף׃
15Two of all flesh that has the breath of life in it entered the ark with Noah. 15וַיָּבֹ֥אוּ אֶל־ נֹ֖חַ אֶל־ הַתֵּבָ֑ה שְׁנַ֤יִם שְׁנַ֙יִם֙ מִכָּל־ הַבָּשָׂ֔ר אֲשֶׁר־ בּ֖וֹ ר֥וּחַ חַיִּֽים׃
16Those that entered, male and female of all flesh, entered just as God had commanded him. Then the LORD shut him in. 16וְהַבָּאִ֗ים זָכָ֨ר וּנְקֵבָ֤ה מִכָּל־ בָּשָׂר֙ בָּ֔אוּ כַּֽאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה אֹת֖וֹ אֱלֹהִ֑ים וַיִּסְגֹּ֥ר יְהוָ֖ה בַּֽעֲדֽוֹ׃
17The flood continued for 40 days on the earth; the waters increased and lifted up the ark so that it rose above the earth. 17וַֽיְהִ֧י הַמַּבּ֛וּל אַרְבָּעִ֥ים י֖וֹם עַל־ הָאָ֑רֶץ וַיִּרְבּ֣וּ הַמַּ֗יִם וַיִּשְׂאוּ֙ אֶת־ הַתֵּבָ֔ה וַתָּ֖רָם מֵעַ֥ל הָאָֽרֶץ׃
18The waters surged and increased greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the water. 18וַיִּגְבְּר֥וּ הַמַּ֛יִם וַיִּרְבּ֥וּ מְאֹ֖ד עַל־ הָאָ֑רֶץ וַתֵּ֥לֶךְ הַתֵּבָ֖ה עַל־ פְּנֵ֥י הַמָּֽיִם׃
19Then the waters surged even higher on the earth, and all the high mountains under the whole sky were covered. 19וְהַמַּ֗יִם גָּֽבְר֛וּ מְאֹ֥ד מְאֹ֖ד עַל־ הָאָ֑רֶץ וַיְכֻסּ֗וּ כָּל־ הֶֽהָרִים֙ הַגְּבֹהִ֔ים אֲשֶׁר־ תַּ֖חַת כָּל־ הַשָּׁמָֽיִם׃
20The mountains were covered as the waters surged above them more than 20 feet.20חֲמֵ֨שׁ עֶשְׂרֵ֤ה אַמָּה֙ מִלְמַ֔עְלָה גָּבְר֖וּ הַמָּ֑יִם וַיְכֻסּ֖וּ הֶהָרִֽים׃
21Every creature perished--those that crawl on the earth, birds, livestock, wildlife, and those that swarm on the earth, as well as all mankind. 21וַיִּגְוַ֞ע כָּל־ בָּשָׂ֣ר ׀ הָרֹמֵ֣שׂ עַל־ הָאָ֗רֶץ בָּע֤וֹף וּבַבְּהֵמָה֙ וּבַ֣חַיָּ֔ה וּבְכָל־ הַשֶּׁ֖רֶץ הַשֹּׁרֵ֣ץ עַל־ הָאָ֑רֶץ וְכֹ֖ל הָאָדָֽם׃
22Everything with the breath of the spirit of life in its nostrils--everything on dry land died. 22כֹּ֡ל אֲשֶׁר֩ נִשְׁמַת־ ר֨וּחַ חַיִּ֜ים בְּאַפָּ֗יו מִכֹּ֛ל אֲשֶׁ֥ר בֶּחָֽרָבָ֖ה מֵֽתוּ׃
23He wiped out every living thing that was on the surface of the ground, from mankind to livestock, to creatures that crawl, to the birds of the sky, and they were wiped off the earth. Only Noah was left, and those that were with him in the ark.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׃
24And the waters surged on the earth 150 days. 24וַיִּגְבְּר֥וּ הַמַּ֖יִם עַל־ הָאָ֑רֶץ חֲמִשִּׁ֥ים וּמְאַ֖ת יֽוֹם׃
