Genesis 7

¹⁷ For forty days the flood kept coming on the earth, and the waters rose and lifted the ark high above the earth.

¹⁸ So the waters continued to surge and rise greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the waters.

²¹ And every living thing that moved upon the earth perished—birds, livestock, animals, every creature that swarms upon the earth, and all mankind.
