11 Noah was 600 when on the seventeenth day of the second month all the subterranean waters burst through the earth, and heavy rain poured down from the sky.12 Rain continue to fall on the earth for forty days and nights.

13 That was the actual day when Noah, his wife, and their sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth together with their three wives went into the ark.14 They had with them every kind of wild animals, livestock, creatures that run along the ground, and birds—everything with wings.15 They all came into the ark with Noah in pairs—every living thing that breathes.16 A male and a female of every creature entered, as God had told Noah. Then the Lord shut the door behind him.

17 The flood increased for forty days, lifting the ark so that it floated up from the earth.18 The floodwaters surged and grew deeper and deeper over the earth, but the ark floated along on the surface.
