17 “Understand that I am bringing a flood — floodwaters on the earth to destroy every creature under heaven with the breath of life in it. Everything on earth will die.
18 But I will establish My covenant with you, and you will enter the ark with your sons, your wife, and your sons’ wives.
19 You are also to bring into the ark two of all the living creatures, male and female, to keep them alive with you.
20 Two of everything — from the birds according to their kinds, from the livestock according to their kinds, and from the animals that crawl on the ground according to their kinds — will come to you so that you can keep them alive.
21 Take with you every kind of food that is eaten; gather it as food for you and for them.”
22 And Noah did this. He did everything that God had commanded him.
