Genesis 7:11-17

[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.  [12] And the rain  was upon the earth  forty  days  and forty  nights.  [13] In the selfsame  day  entered  Noah,  and Shem,  and Ham,  and Japheth,  the sons  of Noah,  wife,  and the three  wives  of his sons  with them, into the ark;  [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.  [15] And they went in  unto Noah  into the ark,  two  of all flesh,  wherein  is the breath  of life.  [16] And they that went in,  male  and female  of all flesh,  as God  had commanded  him: and the LORD  shut him in.  [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.
