11. And the earth was corrupted before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
12. And God saw the earth, and behold, it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted its way upon the earth.
13. And God said to Noah, “The end of all flesh has come before me, for the earth was filled with violence because of them. Now, look, I am going to destroy them along with the earth.
14. Make for yourself an ark of cypress wood; you must make the ark with rooms, then you must cover it with pitch, inside and outside.
15. And this is how you must make it: the length of the ark, three hundred cubits; its width fifty cubits; its height, thirty cubits.
16. You must make a roof for the ark, and finish it to a cubit above. And as for the door of the ark, you must put it in its side. You must make it with a lower, second, and a third deck.
17. And I, behold, I am about to bring the flood waters over the earth to destroy all flesh in which is the breath of life from under the heaven; everything that is on the earth shall perish.
18. And I will establish my covenant with you, and you must go into the ark—you, and your sons, and your wife, and the wives of your sons with you.
