² You are to take with you seven pairs of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate; a pair of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate;

³ and seven pairs of every kind of bird of the air, male and female, to preserve their offspring on the face of all the earth.

⁵ And Noah did all that the LORD had commanded him.
