1And the Lord said to Noah, "Come into the ark, you and all your household, for it is you that I have seen as a righteous man before Me in this generation. אוַיֹּ֤אמֶר יְהֹוָה֙ לְנֹ֔חַ בֹּֽא־אַתָּ֥ה וְכָל־בֵּֽיתְךָ֖ אֶל־הַתֵּבָ֑ה כִּי־אֹֽתְךָ֥ רָאִ֛יתִי צַדִּ֥יק לְפָנַ֖י בַּדּ֥וֹר הַזֶּֽה for it is you that I have seen as a righteous man before Me But it does not say “a righteous man, perfect” [as it does in 69]. From here [we deduce] that we tell part of a person’s praise in his presence and all of it in his absence. — [Gen. Rabbah 323] רָאִיתִי צַדִּיק וְלֹא נֶאֱמַר צַדִּיק תָּמִים, מִכָּאן שֶׁאוֹמְרִים מִקְצַת שִׁבְחוֹ שֶׁל אָדָם בְּפָנָיו וְכֻלּוֹ שֶׁלֹּא בְּפָנָיו ב"ר 2Of all the clean animals you shall take for yourself seven pairs, a male and its mate, and of the animals that are not clean, two, a male and its mate. במִכֹּ֣ל הַבְּהֵמָ֣ה הַטְּהוֹרָ֗ה תִּקַּח־לְךָ֛ שִׁבְעָ֥ה שִׁבְעָ֖ה אִ֣ישׁ וְאִשְׁתּ֑וֹ וּמִן־הַבְּהֵמָ֡ה אֲ֠שֶׁ֠ר לֹ֣א טְהֹרָ֥ה הִ֛וא שְׁנַ֖יִם אִ֥ישׁ וְאִשְׁתּֽוֹ Of all the clean animals that are destined to be clean for Israel. We learn [from here] that Noah studied the Torah. — [Zev. 116a] הַטְּהוֹרָה הָעֲתִידָה לִהְיוֹת טְהוֹרָה לְיִשְׂרָאֵל; לָמַדְנוּ שֶׁלָּמַד נֹחַ תּוֹרָה שם פ' כ"ו seven pairs in order that he might offer up some as a sacrifice upon leaving [the ark]. — [Tan. Vayakhel 6] שִׁבְעָה שִׁבְעָה כְּדֵי שֶׁיַּקְרִיב מֵהֶם קָרְבָּן בְּצֵאתוֹ 3Also, of the fowl of the heavens, seven pairs, male and female, to keep seed alive on the face of the earth. גגַּ֣ם מֵע֧וֹף הַשָּׁמַ֛יִם שִׁבְעָ֥ה שִׁבְעָ֖ה זָכָ֣ר וּנְקֵבָ֑ה לְחַיּ֥וֹת זֶ֖רַע עַל־פְּנֵ֥י כָל־הָאָֽרֶץ Also, of the fowl of the heavens, etc. Scripture speaks of the clean [fowl], and we learn that which is not explicit from that which is explicit. [ Just as in the case of the animals, seven pairs of clean ones were to be brought into the ark, so was it in the case of the fowl, that seven pairs of clean ones were to be brought in, while of the unclean species, only one pair was to be saved.] גַּם מֵעוֹף הַשָּׁמַיִם וגו' בִּטְהוֹרִים הַכָּתוּב מְדַבֵּר, וְלָמַד סָתוּם מִן הַמְפֹרָשׁ 4For in another seven days, I will make it rain upon the earth for forty days and forty nights, and I will blot out all beings that I have made, off the face of the earth." דכִּי֩ לְיָמִ֨ים ע֜וֹד שִׁבְעָ֗ה אָֽנֹכִי֙ מַמְטִ֣יר עַל־הָאָ֔רֶץ אַרְבָּעִ֣ים י֔וֹם וְאַרְבָּעִ֖ים לָ֑יְלָה וּמָחִ֗יתִי אֶת־כָּל־הַיְקוּם֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר עָשִׂ֔יתִי מֵעַ֖ל פְּנֵ֥י הָֽאֲדָמָֽה For in another seven days Sanh. 108b These are the seven days of mourning for the righteous Methuselah, for the Holy One, blessed be He, had consideration for his honor, and delayed the retribution. Go and calculate the years of Methuselah and you will find that they ended in the six-hundredth year of Noah’s life. כִּי לְיָמִים עוֹד שִׁבְעָה אֵלּוּ ז' יְמֵי אֶבְלוֹ שֶׁל מְתוּשֶׁלַח הַצַּדִּיק שֶׁחָס הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא עַל כְּבוֹדוֹ וְעִכֵּב אֶת הַפֻּרְעָנוּת. צֵא וַחֲשֹׁב שְׁנוֹתָיו שֶׁל מְתוּשֶׁלַח וְתִמְצָא שֶׁהֵם כָּלִים בִּשְנַת ת"ר שָׁנָה לְחַיֵּי נֹחַ סנה' ק"ח For in another seven days What is the meaning of “another” ? A [period of] time following a [period of] time; this [period] was added to the one hundred and twenty years. — [See Rashi 614] כִּי לְיָמִים עוֹד מַהוּ עוֹד? זְמַן אַחַר זְמַן זֶה נוֹסָף עַל ק"כ שָׁנָה forty days Corresponding to the [time required for the] formation of the fetus, for they sinned by burdening the One Who formed them, by fashioning the forms of mamzerim children born of incestuous and forbidden unions. - [Gen.

They sinned with [Gen. 65] “the evil of man was great,” and they were punished with “the great deep.” - [Sanh. 108a] תְּהוֹם רַבָּה מִדָּה כְנֶגֶד מִדָּה, הֵם חָטְאוּ בְּרַבָּה רָעַת הָאָדָם וְלָקוּ בִּתְהוֹם רַבָּה 12And the rain was upon the earth for forty days and forty nights. יבוַיְהִ֥י הַגֶּ֖שֶׁם עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ אַרְבָּעִ֣ים י֔וֹם וְאַרְבָּעִ֖ים לָֽיְלָה And the rain was upon the earth And further verse 17 Scripture says “Now the Flood was [upon the earth].” But when He brought them [the rains] down, He brought them down with mercy, so that if they would repent, they would be rains of blessing. When they did not repent, they became a flood. — [Midrash Hane’elam, Zohar Chadash 28a] וַיְהִי הַגֶּשֶׁם עַל־הָאָרֶץ וּלְהַלָּן הוּא אוֹמֵר וַיְהִי הַמַּבּוּל? אֶלָּא כְּשֶׁהוֹרִידָן הוֹרִידָן בְּרַחֲמִים, שֶׁאִם יַחְזְרוּ יִהְיוּ גִּשְׁמֵי בְרָכָה; כְּשֶׁלֹּא חָזְרוּ הָיוּ לְמַבּוּל forty days, etc. The first day does not count because its night was not included with it, [ on the night preceding it, no rain fell] for it is written verse 11 “on this day, all the springs were split.” The result is that the forty days ended on the twenty-eighth of Kislev, according to Rabbi Eliezer. For the months are counted according to their order, one full [composed of thirty days], and one defective [composed of twenty-nine days], leaving twelve days of Marcheshvan and twenty-eight of Kislev [totalling forty]. אַרְבָּעִים יוֹם וגו' אֵין יוֹם רִאשׁוֹן מִן הַמִּנְיָן, לְפִי שֶׁאֵין לֵילוֹ עִמּוֹ שֶׁהֲרֵי כְתִיב בַּיּוֹם הַזֶּה נִבְקְעוּ כָּל מַעְיְנֹת, נִמְצְאוּ אַרְבָּעִים יוֹם כָּלִים בְּכ"ח בְּכִסְלֵו לְרַבִּי אֱלִיעֱזֶר, שֶׁהַחֳדָשִׁים נִמְנִין כְּסִדְרָן אֶחָד מָלֵא וְאֶחָד חָסֵר, הֲרֵי י"ב מִמַּרְחֶשְׁוָן וְכ"ח מִכִּסְלֵו 13On this very day, Noah came, and Shem and Ham and Japheth, Noah's sons, and Noah's wife and his sons' three wives with them, into the ark. יגבְּעֶ֨צֶם הַיּ֤וֹם הַזֶּה֙ בָּ֣א נֹ֔חַ וְשֵֽׁם־וְחָ֥ם וָיֶ֖פֶת בְּנֵי־נֹ֑חַ וְאֵ֣שֶׁת נֹ֗חַ וּשְׁל֧שֶׁת נְשֵֽׁי־בָנָ֛יו אִתָּ֖ם אֶל־הַתֵּבָֽה On this very day Scripture teaches you that the people of his generation were saying, “If we see him going into the ark, we will break it and kill him.” Said the Holy One, blessed be He, “I will bring him in before the eyes of all, and we will see whose word will prevail!” - [Sifrei Ha’azinu 337] בְּעֶצֶם הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה לִמֶּדְךָ הַכָּתוּב שֶׁהָיוּ בְנֵי דוֹרוֹ אוֹמְרִים אִלּוּ אָנוּ רוֹאִים אוֹתוֹ נִכְנָס לַתֵּבָה, אָנוּ שׁוֹבְרִין אוֹתָהּ וְהוֹרְגִין אוֹתוֹ, אָמַר הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא אֲנִי מַכְנִיסוֹ לְעֵינֵי כֻלָּם וְנִרְאֶה דְבַר מִי יָקוּם 14They, and every beast after its kind, and every domestic animal after its kind, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth after its kind, and every fowl after its kind, every bird of every wing. ידהֵ֜מָּה וְכָל־הַֽחַיָּ֣ה לְמִינָ֗הּ וְכָל־הַבְּהֵמָה֙ לְמִינָ֔הּ וְכָל־הָרֶ֛מֶשׂ הָֽרֹמֵ֥שׂ עַל־הָאָ֖רֶץ לְמִינֵ֑הוּ וְכָל־הָע֣וֹף לְמִינֵ֔הוּ כֹּ֖ל צִפּ֥וֹר כָּל־כָּנָֽף bird of every wing It [the word צִפּוֹר is in the construct state [meaning] “birds of every type of wing,” to include locusts. The word כָּנָף means feather, as Lev. 117“And he shall split it apart with its feathers בִכְנָפָיו” for even its feathers were included in the burnt offering. Here too, [the meaning is] any bird with any kind of appearance of feathers. [Chul. 139b] צִפּוֹר כֹּל כָּנָֽף דָבוּק הוּא, צִפּוֹר שֶׁל כָּל מִין כָּנָף, לְרַבּוֹת חֲגָבִים כָּנָף לְשׁוֹן נוֹצָה, כְּמוֹ וְשִׁסַּע אֹתוֹ בִכְנָפָיו, שֶׁאֲפִלּוּ נוֹצָתָהּ עוֹלָה, אַף כָּאן צִפּוֹר כָּל מִין מַרְאִית נוֹצָה 15And they came to Noah to the ark, two by two of all flesh in which there is the spirit of life. טווַיָּבֹ֥אוּ אֶל־נֹ֖חַ אֶל־הַתֵּבָ֑ה שְׁנַ֤יִם שְׁנַ֨יִם֙ מִכָּל־הַבָּשָׂ֔ר אֲשֶׁר־בּ֖וֹ ר֥וּחַ חַיִּֽים 16And those who came male and female of all flesh came, as God had commanded him, and the Lord shut him in. טזוְהַבָּאִ֗ים זָכָ֨ר וּנְקֵבָ֤ה מִכָּל־בָּשָׂר֙ בָּ֔אוּ כַּֽאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה אֹת֖וֹ אֱלֹהִ֑ים וַיִּסְגֹּ֥ר יְהֹוָ֖ה בַּֽעֲדֽוֹ and the Lord shut him in He protected him Targum Onkelos that they should not break it; He surrounded the ark with bears and lions, and they killed some of them Tan. Buber Noach 10. The simple meaning of the verse is that He closed [the ark] in front of him against the water. Likewise, every בְּעַד in Scripture is an expression of “in front of.” Below 2018 “in front of בְּעַד every womb”; II Kings 44 “in front of you בַּעֲדֵךְ and in front of וּבְעַד your sons”; Job 24 “skin in front of בְּעַד skin” ; Ps. 34 “a shield in front of me בַּעֲדִי”; I Sam. 1219 “Pray בְּעַד your servants,” meaning “in front” [on behalf] of your servants. ויסגור ה' בַּֽעֲדֽוֹ הֵגֵן עָלָיו שֶׁלֹּא יִשְׁבְּרוּהָ, הִקִּיף הַתֵּבָה דֻּבִּים וַאֲרָיוֹת וְהָיוּ הוֹרְגִים בָּהֶם; וּפְשׁוּטוֹ שֶׁל מִקְרָא סָגַר כְּנֶגֶדוֹ מִן הַמַּיִם, וְכֵן כָּל בְּעַד שֶׁבַּמִּקְרָא לְשׁוֹן כְּנֶגֶד הוּא, בְּעַד כָּל רֶחֶם בראשית כ׳י״ח, בַּעֲדֵךְ וּבְעַד בָּנַיִךְ מ"ב ד', עוֹר בְּעַד עוֹר איוב ב', מָגֵן בַּעֲדִי תהלים ג', הִתְפַּלֵּל בְּעַד עֲבָדֶיךָ שמואל א' י"ב – כְּנֶגֶד עֲבָדֶיךָ 17Now the Flood was forty days upon the earth, and the waters increased, and they lifted the ark, and it rose off the earth. יזוַיְהִ֧י הַמַּבּ֛וּל אַרְבָּעִ֥ים י֖וֹם עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ וַיִּרְבּ֣וּ הַמַּ֗יִם וַיִּשְׂאוּ֙ אֶת־הַתֵּבָ֔ה וַתָּ֖רָם מֵעַ֥ל הָאָֽרֶץ and it rose off the earth It was submerged in the water eleven cubits like a loaded ship, which is partially submerged in the water, and the following verses prove this. — [from Gen. Rabbah 329] See Rashi below 83. וַתָּרָם מֵעַל הָאָרֶץ מְשֻׁקַּעַת הָיְתָה בַּמַּיִם י"א אַמָּה כִסְפִינָה טְעוּנָה הַמְשֻׁקַּעַת מִקְצָתָהּ בַּמַּיִם; וּמִקְרָאוֹת שֶׁלְּפָנֵינוּ יוֹכִיחוּ 18And the waters became powerful, and they increased very much upon the earth, and the ark moved upon the waters. יחוַיִּגְבְּר֥וּ הַמַּ֛יִם וַיִּרְבּ֥וּ מְאֹ֖ד עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ וַתֵּ֥לֶךְ הַתֵּבָ֖ה עַל־פְּנֵ֥י הַמָּֽיִם became powerful By themselves. וַיִּגְבְּרוּ מֵאֵלֵיהֶן 19And the waters became exceedingly powerful upon the earth, and all the lofty mountains that were under the heavens were covered up. יטוְהַמַּ֗יִם גָּֽבְר֛וּ מְאֹ֥ד מְאֹ֖ד עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ וַיְכֻסּ֗וּ כָּל־הֶֽהָרִים֙ הַגְּבֹהִ֔ים אֲשֶׁר־תַּ֖חַת כָּל־הַשָּׁמָֽיִם 20Fifteen cubits above did the waters prevail, and the mountains were covered up. כחֲמֵ֨שׁ עֶשְׂרֵ֤ה אַמָּה֙ מִלְמַ֔עְלָה גָּֽבְר֖וּ הַמָּ֑יִם וַיְכֻסּ֖וּ הֶֽהָרִֽים Fifteen cubits above Above the peaks of all the mountains, after the waters were equal to [at the same level as] the mountain peaks. — [from Gen.

And this is of the form of וַיִּפֶן, he turned, וַיִּבֶן, he built. Every word [ verb] whose root ends with a “hey,” בנה, to build, מחה, to erase, קנה, to acquire—when you prefix it with a “vav” and a “yud,” it is vowelized with a “chirik” under the “yud.” [Rashi teaches us that the meaning of the verse is not “and all beings were blotted out,” but “and it”—meaning the Flood—“blotted out all beings.”] וַיִּמַח לְשׁוֹן וַיִּפְעַל הוּא וְאֵינוֹ לָשׁוֹן וַיִפָּעֵל, וְהוּא מִגִּזְרַת וַיִּפֶן וַיִּבֶן כָּל תֵּבָה שֶׁסּוֹפָהּ הֵ"א, כְּגוֹן בָּנָה, מָחָה, קָנָה, כְּשֶׁהוּא נוֹתֵן וָי"ו יוֹ"ד בְּרֹאשָׁהּ, נָקוּד בְּחִירִק תַּחַת הַיּוֹ"ד and only Noah…survived אַךְ means “only” Noah. This is its simple meaning, but the Midrash Aggadah Tan. Noach 9 [states] He was groaning and spitting blood because of the burden [of caring for] the cattle and the beasts, and some say that he delayed feeding the lion, and it struck him, and concerning him it is said Prov. 1131 “Behold a righteous man is requited [for his sins] in this world.” - [Tan. Noach 9] אַךְ־נֹחַ לְבַד נֹחַ, זֶהוּ פְּשׁוּטוֹ; וּמִקְרָא אַחֵר גוֹנֵחַ וְכוֹהֶה דָם מִטֹּרַח הַבְּהֵמוֹת וְהַחַיּוֹת. וְיֵשׁ אוֹמָרִים שֶׁאִחֵר מְזוֹנוֹת לָאֲרִי וְהִכִּישׁוֹ, וְעָלָיו נֶאֱמַר הֵן צַדִּיק בָּאָרֶץ יְשֻׁלָּם משלי יא 24And the water prevailed upon the earth a hundred and fifty days. כדוַיִּגְבְּר֥וּ הַמַּ֖יִם עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ חֲמִשִּׁ֥ים וּמְאַ֖ת יֽוֹם

Rasul Petrus mengacu kepada air bah untuk mengingatkan para pembacanya bahwa Allah akan menghukum dunia lagi pada akhir zaman, kali ini dengan api ( 2Pet 3:10 ). Penghukuman itu akan meliputi pencurahan murka Allah atas orang fasik dalam taraf

7 The Lord then said to Noah, “Go into the ark, you and your whole family,A because I have found you righteousB in this generation. 2 Take with you seven pairs of every kind of cleanC animal, a male and its mate, and one pair of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate, 3 and also seven pairs of every kind of bird, male and female, to keep their various kinds aliveD throughout the earth. 4 Seven days from now I will send rainE on the earthF for forty daysG and forty nights,H and I will wipe from the face of the earth every living creature I have made.I” 5 And Noah did all that the Lord commanded him.J 6 Noah was six hundred years oldK when the floodwaters came on the earth. 7 And Noah and his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives entered the arkL to escape the waters of the flood. 8 Pairs of clean and uncleanM animals, of birds and of all creatures that move along the ground, 9 male and female, came to Noah and entered the ark, as God had commanded Noah.N 10 And after the seven daysO the floodwaters came on the earth. 11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life,P on the seventeenth day of the second monthQ—on that day all the springs of the great deepR burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavensS were opened. 12 And rain fell on the earth forty days and forty nights.T 13 On that very day Noah and his sons,U Shem, Ham and Japheth, together with his wife and the wives of his three sons, entered the ark.V 14 They had with them every wild animal according to its kind, all livestock according to their kinds, every creature that moves along the ground according to its kind and every bird according to its kind,W everything with wings. 15 Pairs of all creatures that have the breath of life in them came to Noah and entered the ark.X 16 The animals going in were male and female of every living thing, as God had commanded Noah.Y Then the Lord shut him in. 17 For forty daysZ the flood kept coming on the earth, and as the waters increased they lifted the ark high above the earth. 18 The waters rose and increased greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the water. 19 They rose greatly on the earth, and all the high mountains under the entire heavens were covered.AA 20 The waters rose and covered the mountains to a depth of more than fifteen cubits.[a][b] AB 21 Every living thing that moved on land perished—birds, livestock, wild animals, all the creatures that swarm over the earth, and all mankind.AC 22 Everything on dry land that had the breath of lifeAD in its nostrils died. 23 Every living thing on the face of the earth was wiped out; people and animals and the creatures that move along the ground and the birds were wiped from the earth.AE Only Noah was left, and those with him in the ark.AF 24 The waters flooded the earth for a hundred and fifty days.AG 8 But God rememberedAH Noah and all the wild animals and the livestock that were with him in the ark, and he sent a wind over the earth,AI and the waters receded. 2 Now the springs of the deep and the floodgates of the heavensAJ had been closed, and the rainAK had stopped falling from the sky. 3 The water receded steadily from the earth. At the end of the hundred and fifty daysAL the water had gone down, 4 and on the seventeenth day of the seventh monthAM the ark came to rest on the mountainsAN of Ararat.AO 5 The waters continued to recede until the tenth month, and on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains became visible. 6 After forty daysAP Noah opened a window he had made in the ark 7 and sent out a raven,AQ and it kept flying back and forth until the water had dried up from the earth.AR 8 Then he sent out a doveAS to see if the water had receded from the surface of the ground. 9 But the dove could find nowhere to perch because there was water over all the surface of the earth; so it returned to Noah in the ark. He reached out his hand and took the dove and brought it back to himself in the ark. 10 He waited seven more days and again sent out the dove from the ark. 11 When the dove returned to him in the evening, there in its beak was a freshly plucked olive leaf! Then Noah knew that the water had receded from the earth.AT 12 He waited seven more days and sent the dove out again, but this time it did not return to him. 13 By the first day of the first month of Noah’s six hundred and first year,AU the water had dried up from the earth. Noah then removed the covering from the ark and saw that the surface of the ground was dry. 14 By the twenty-seventh day of the second monthAV the earth was completely dry. 15 Then God said to Noah, 16 “Come out of the ark, you and your wife and your sons and their wives.AW 17 Bring out every kind of living creature that is with you—the birds, the animals, and all the creatures that move along the ground—so they can multiply on the earth and be fruitful and increase in number on it.”AX 18 So Noah came out, together with his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives.AY 19 All the animals and all the creatures that move along the ground and all the birds—everything that moves on land—came out of the ark, one kind after another. 20 Then Noah built an altar to the LordAZ and, taking some of all the clean animals and cleanBA birds, he sacrificed burnt offeringsBB on it. 21 The Lord smelled the pleasing aromaBC and said in his heart “Never again will I curse the groundBD because of humans, even though[c] every inclination of the human heart is evil from childhood.BE And never again will I destroyBF all living creatures,BG as I have done. 22 “As long as the earth endures,seedtime and harvest,BHcold and heat,summer and winter,BIday and nightwill never cease.”BJ God’s Covenant With Noah9 Then God blessed Noah and his sons, saying to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the earth.BK 2 The fear and dread of you will fall on all the beasts of the earth, and on all the birds in the sky, on every creature that moves along the ground, and on all the fish in the sea; they are given into your hands.BL 3 Everything that lives and moves about will be food for you.BM Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything.BN 4 “But you must not eat meat that has its lifeblood still in it.BO 5 And for your lifeblood I will surely demand an accounting.BP I will demand an accounting from every animal.BQ And from each human being, too, I will demand an accounting for the life of another human being.BR 6 “Whoever sheds human blood, by humans shall their blood be shed;BSfor in the image of GodBT has God made mankind. 7 As for you, be fruitful and increase in number; multiply on the earth and increase upon it.”BU 8 Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him 9 “I now establish my covenant with youBV and with your descendants after you 10 and with every living creature that was with you—the birds, the livestock and all the wild animals, all those that came out of the ark with you—every living creature on earth. 11 I establish my covenantBW with youBX Never again will all life be destroyed by the waters of a flood; never again will there be a flood to destroy the earth.BY” 12 And God said, “This is the sign of the covenantBZ I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to comeCA 13 I have set my rainbowCB in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. 14 Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbowCC appears in the clouds, 15 I will remember my covenantCD between me and you and all living creatures of every kind.

Their faces were turned the other way so that they would not see their father naked. 24 When Noah awoke from his wine and found out what his youngest son had done to him, 25 he said,“CursedCO be Canaan!CP The lowest of slaves will he be to his brothers.CQ” 26 He also said,“Praise be to the Lord, the God of Shem!CR May Canaan be the slaveCS of May God extend Japheth’s[e] territory;CT may Japheth live in the tents of Shem,CU and may Canaan be the slave of Japheth.” 28 After the flood Noah lived 350 years. 29 Noah lived a total of 950 years, and then he died.CV The Table of Nations10 This is the accountCW of Shem, Ham and Japheth,CX Noah’s sons,CY who themselves had sons after the flood.

Genesis7-10 King James Version (KJV). 7 And the Lord said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation. 2 Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female. 3 Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep

7Air bah71-24 1Lalu berfirmanlah Tuhan kepada Nuh ”Masuklah ke dalam bahtera itu, engkau dan seisi rumahmu, sebab engkaulah yang Kulihat benar di hadapan-Ku di antara orang zaman ini. 2Dari segala binatang yang tidak haram haruslah kauambil tujuh pasang, jantan dan betinanya, tetapi dari binatang yang haram satu pasang, jantan dan betinanya; 3juga dari burung-burung di udara tujuh pasang, jantan dan betina, supaya terpelihara hidup keturunannya di seluruh bumi. 4Sebab tujuh hari lagi Aku akan menurunkan hujan ke atas bumi empat puluh hari empat puluh malam lamanya, dan Aku akan menghapuskan dari muka bumi segala yang ada, yang Kujadikan itu.” 5Lalu Nuh melakukan segala yang diperintahkan Tuhan kepadanya. 6Nuh berumur enam ratus tahun, ketika air bah datang meliputi bumi. 7Mat. 2438-39; Luk. 1727 Masuklah Nuh ke dalam bahtera itu bersama-sama dengan anak-anaknya dan isterinya dan isteri anak-anaknya karena air bah itu. 8Dari binatang yang tidak haram dan yang haram, dari burung-burung dan dari segala yang merayap di muka bumi, 9datanglah sepasang mendapatkan Nuh ke dalam bahtera itu, jantan dan betina, seperti yang diperintahkan Allah kepada Nuh. 10Setelah tujuh hari datanglah air bah meliputi bumi. 112Ptr. 36 Pada waktu umur Nuh enam ratus tahun, pada bulan yang kedua, pada hari yang ketujuh belas bulan itu, pada hari itulah terbelah segala mata air samudera raya yang dahsyat dan terbukalah tingkap-tingkap di langit. 12Dan turunlah hujan lebat meliputi bumi empat puluh hari empat puluh malam lamanya. 13Pada hari itu juga masuklah Nuh serta Sem, Ham dan Yafet, anak-anak Nuh, dan isteri Nuh, dan ketiga isteri anak-anaknya bersama-sama dengan dia, ke dalam bahtera itu, 14mereka itu dan segala jenis binatang liar dan segala jenis ternak dan segala jenis binatang melata yang merayap di bumi dan segala jenis burung, yakni segala yang berbulu bersayap; 15dari segala yang hidup dan bernyawa datanglah sepasang mendapatkan Nuh ke dalam bahtera itu. 16Dan yang masuk itu adalah jantan dan betina dari segala yang hidup, seperti yang diperintahkan Allah kepada Nuh; lalu Tuhan menutup pintu bahtera itu di belakang Nuh. 17Empat puluh hari lamanya air bah itu meliputi bumi; air itu naik dan mengangkat bahtera itu, sehingga melampung tinggi dari bumi. 18Ketika air itu makin bertambah-tambah dan naik dengan hebatnya di atas bumi, terapung-apunglah bahtera itu di muka air. 19Dan air itu sangat hebatnya bertambah-tambah meliputi bumi, dan ditutupinyalah segala gunung tinggi di seluruh kolong langit, 20sampai lima belas hasta di atasnya bertambah-tambah air itu, sehingga gunung-gunung ditutupinya. 21Lalu mati binasalah segala yang hidup, yang bergerak di bumi, burung-burung, ternak dan binatang liar dan segala binatang merayap, yang berkeriapan di bumi, serta semua manusia. 22Matilah segala yang ada nafas hidup dalam hidungnya, segala yang ada di darat. 23Demikianlah dihapuskan Allah segala yang ada, segala yang di muka bumi, baik manusia maupun hewan dan binatang melata dan burung-burung di udara, sehingga semuanya itu dihapuskan dari atas bumi; hanya Nuh yang tinggal hidup dan semua yang bersama-sama dengan dia dalam bahtera itu. 24Dan berkuasalah air itu di atas bumi seratus lima puluh hari lamanya.

E depois dos sete dias, as águas do Dilúvio vieram sobre a terra. Gênesis 711 No dia em que Noé completou seiscentos anos, um mês e dezessete dias, nesse mesmo dia todas as fontes das grandes profundezas jorraram, e as comportas do céu se abriram. Gênesis 712 E a chuva caiu sobre a terra quarenta dias e quarenta noites. Gênesis 713 Naquele mesmo dia, Noé e seus filhos, Sem, Cam e Jafé, com sua mulher e com as mulheres de seus três filhos, entraram na arca. Gênesis 714 Com eles entraram todos os animais de acordo com as suas espécies todos os animais selvagens, todos os rebanhos domésticos, todos os demais seres vivos que se movem rente ao chão e todas as criaturas que têm asas todas as aves e todos os outros animais que voam. Gênesis 715 Casais de todas as criaturas que tinham fôlego de vida vieram a Noé e entraram na arca. Gênesis 716 Os animais que entraram foram um macho e uma fêmea de cada ser vivo, conforme Deus ordenara a Noé. Então o Senhor fechou a porta. Gênesis 717 Quarenta dias durou o Dilúvio sobre a terra, e as águas aumentaram e elevaram a arca acima da terra. Gênesis 718 As águas prevaleceram, aumentando muito sobre a terra, e a arca flutuava na superfície das águas. Gênesis 719 As águas dominavam cada vez mais a terra, e foram cobertas todas as altas montanhas debaixo do céu. Gênesis 720 As águas subiram até quase sete metros acima das montanhas. Gênesis 721 Todos os seres vivos que se movem sobre a terra pereceram aves, rebanhos domésticos, animais selvagens, todas as pequenas criaturas que povoam a terra e toda a humanidade. Gênesis 722 Tudo o que havia em terra seca e tinha nas narinas o fôlego de vida morreu. Gênesis 723 Todos os seres vivos foram exterminados da face da terra; tanto os homens, como os animais grandes, os animais pequenos que se movem rente ao chão e as aves do céu foram exterminados da terra. Só restaram Noé e aqueles que com ele estavam na arca. Gênesis 724 E as águas prevaleceram sobre a terra cento e cinqüenta dias.
