¹⁶ A window^* thou shalt make to the ark^◦, and to^▵ a cubit thou shalt complete it from above; and the entrance of the ark^◦ thou shalt set in its side; with lowest^◦, second, and third stories thou shalt make it.

¹⁷ And I^◦, behold I am bringing the flood of waters on the earth, to destroy all flesh wherein^◦ is the spirit of lives from under the heavens; everything that is in the earth shall expire.

¹⁸ And I will raise·​·up My covenant with^◦ thee; and thou shalt come into^▵ the ark^◦, thou^◦ and thy sons, and thy wife, and the wives of thy sons, with^◦ thee.

¹⁹ And from all that lives from all flesh, twos from all, thou shalt bring into^▵ the ark^◦, to keep them alive with^◦ thee; male and female they shall be.

²⁰ Of the fowl after its kind, and of the beast after its kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of all shall come to^▵ thee, to cause them to live.

²¹ And take thou^◦ to thee of all food that is eaten, and gather it to^▵ thee, and it shall be for food for thee and for them.
