19 And the waters prevailed exceedingly on the earth, and all the high hills under the whole heaven were covered.
20 The waters prevailed fifteen cubits upward, and the mountains were covered.
21 aAnd all flesh died that moved on1 the earth: birds and cattle and beasts and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, and every man.
22 All in awhose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, all that was on the dry land, died.
23 So He destroyed all living things which were on the face of the ground: both man and cattle, creeping thing and bird of the air. They were destroyed from the earth. Only aNoah and those who were with him in the ark remained alive.
24 aAnd the waters prevailed on the earth one hundred and fifty days.
