Genesis 7:17-24

Thomson(i) 17 and the deluge came on the earth forty days and forty nights. And the water increased exceedingly and lifted up the ark, and it was raised up from the earth. 18 And the water prevailed and was exceedingly increased on the earth: And the ark was borne up above the water. 19 Still the water prevailed more and more on the earth and covered all the high mountains which were under the heaven. 20 Fifteen cubits above was the water raised when it had covered all the high mountains. 21 And all animate flesh on the earth of fowls and cattle and wild beasts and every moving reptile on the earth and every man died. 22 Every thing which hath the breath of life, even every thing which was on the dry land died. 23 It swept away every thing raised up, which was on the face of the earth, man and cattle and reptiles and the fowls of the air. They were swept away from the earth, and Noe alone was left and they who were with him in the ark. 24 And the water was raised up above the earth a hundred and fifty days.
