15. And this is how you must make it: The length of the ark will be three hundred cubits, the width of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.
16. Make an opening one cubit below the top of the ark all around; and you must set the door of the ark on the side. Make it with a lower, a second, and a third story.
17. I will bring a flood of waters on the earth to destroy all flesh, wherever there is the breath of life under heaven, and everything that is on the earth will die.
18. But I will establish My covenant with you; you must go into the ark—you, and your sons, and your wife, and your sons’ wives with you.
19. Bring every living thing of all flesh, two of every kind, into the ark to keep them alive with you. They shall be male and female.
20. Two of every kind of bird, of every kind of animal, and of every kind of creeping thing of the earth will come to you to be kept alive.
21. Also, take with you of every kind of food that is eaten and gather it to yourself, and it will be for food for you and for them.”
22. Noah did this; he did all that God commanded him.
