1 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.

1 Dixitque Dominus ad eum: Ingredere tu et omnis domus tua in arcam: te enim vidi justum coram me in generatione hac.

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.

2 Ex omnibus animantibus mundis tolle septena et septena, masculum et feminam: de animantibus vero immundis duo et duo, masculum et feminam.

3 Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.

3 Sed et de volatilibus cæli septena et septena, masculum et feminam: ut salvetur semen super faciem universæ terræ.

4 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.

4 Adhuc enim, et post dies septem ego pluam super terram quadraginta diebus et quadraginta noctibus: et delebo omnem substantiam, quam feci, de superficie terræ.

5 And Noah did according unto all that the Lord commanded him.

5 Fecit ergo Noë omnia quæ mandaverat ei Dominus.

6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.

6 Eratque sexcentorum annorum quando diluvii aquæ inundaverunt super terram.

7 ¶ And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.

7 Et ingressus est Noë et filii ejus, uxor ejus et uxores filiorum ejus cum eo in arcam propter aquas diluvii.

8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,

8 De animantibus quoque mundis et immundis, et de volucribus, et ex omni quod movetur super terram,

9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.

9 duo et duo ingressa sunt ad Noë in arcam, masculus et femina, sicut præceperat Dominus Noë.

10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.

10 Cumque transissent septem dies, aquæ diluvii inundaverunt super terram.

11 ¶ In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.

11 Anno sexcentesimo vitæ Noë, mense secundo, septimodecimo die mensis, rupti sunt omnes fontes abyssi magnæ, et cataractæ cæli apertæ sunt:

12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.

12 et facta est pluvia super terram quadraginta diebus et quadraginta noctibus.

13 In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;

13 In articulo diei illius ingressus est Noë, et Sem, et Cham, et Japheth filii ejus; uxor illius, et tres uxores filiorum ejus cum eis in arcam:

14 They, and every beast after his kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind, and every fowl after his kind, every bird of every sort.

14 ipsi et omne animal secundum genus suum, universaque jumenta in genere suo, et omne quod movetur super terram in genere suo, cunctumque volatile secundum genus suum, universæ aves, omnesque volucres,

15 And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life.

15 ingressæ sunt ad Noë in arcam, bina et bina ex omni carne, in qua erat spiritus vitæ.

16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the Lord shut him in.

16 Et quæ ingressa sunt, masculus et femina ex omni carne introierunt, sicut præceperat ei Deus: et inclusit eum Dominus deforis.

17 And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lift up above the earth.

17 ¶ Factumque est diluvium quadraginta diebus super terram: et multiplicatæ sunt aquæ, et elevaverunt arcam in sublime a terra.

18 And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters.

18 Vehementer enim inundaverunt, et omnia repleverunt in superficie terræ: porro arca ferebatur super aquas.

19 And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered.

19 Et aquæ prævaluerunt nimis super terram: opertique sunt omnes montes excelsi sub universo cælo.

20 Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered.

20 Quindecim cubitis altior fuit aqua super montes, quos operuerat.

21 And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man:

21 Consumptaque est omnis caro quæ movebatur super terram, volucrum, animantium, bestiarum, omniumque reptilium, quæ reptant super terram: universi homines,

22 All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died.

22 et cuncta, in quibus spiraculum vitæ est in terra, mortua sunt.

23 And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark.

23 Et delevit omnem substantiam quæ erat super terram, ab homine usque ad pecus, tam reptile quam volucres cæli: et deleta sunt de terra. Remansit autem solus Noë, et qui cum eo erant in arca.

24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days.

24 Obtinueruntque aquæ terram centum quinquaginta diebus.
