1 И сказалъ Іегова Ною: войди со всјмъ семействомъ твоимъ въ ковчегъ; ибо тебя вижу Я праведнымъ предо Мною въ семъ вјкј.

2 Возьми съ собою изъ всякаго скота чистаго по семи, мужскаго пола и женскаго, а изъ скота нечистаго по два, мужскаго пола и женскаго.

3 Также и птицъ небесныхъ по семи, мужскаго пола и женскаго, чтобы сохранить племя для всей земли.

4 Ибо чрезъ семь дней отнынј, Я повелю дождю литъся на землю сорокъ дней и сорокъ ночей; и истреблю съ лица земли все существующее, что Я ни создалъ.

5 Ной сдјлалъ все, что Іегова повелјлъ ему.

6 Ной же былъ шесги сотъ лјть отъ рожденія, какь вода потопная пришла на землю.

7 И вошелъ Ной отъ водъ потопа въ ковчегъ, и съ нимъ сыновья его, и жена его, и жены сыновъ его.

8 И изъ скота чистаго и изъ скота нечистаго, и изъ всјхъ птицъ и изъ всјхъ пресмыкающихся по землј,

9 по парј, мужскаго пола и женскаго, вошли къ Ною въ ковчегъ, какъ Богъ повелјлъ Ною.

10 И когда минуло семь дней, воды потопа пришли на землю.

11 Въ шестисотомъ году жизни Ноевой, во второмъ мтснцј, въ семнадцатый день мјсяца, въ сей день разверзлись всј источники великой бездны, и окна небесныя отворились.

12 И лился на землю дождь сорокъ дней и сорокъ ночей

13 Въ сей самый день вошелъ въ ковчегъ Ной, н сыновья Ноевы, Сиімъ, Хамъ и Іафетъ, и жена Ноева, и три жены сыновъ его съ ними.

14 Они и всј звјри по роду ихъ, и всякой скоть по роду его, и всј гады пресмыкающіеся по землј по роду ихъ и всј птицы по роду ихъ, всј летающія, всј пернатыя.

15 По парј отъ всякой плоти, въ которой есть духъ жизни, вошло къ Ною въ ковчегъ.

16 И вошедшіе были мужскій и женскій полъ всякой плоти, такъ, какь повелјль ему Богъ. Наконецъ Іегова затворилъ за нимъ.

17 И продолжалось на землј наводненіе сорокъ дней, и умножились воды, и подняли ковчегъ, и онъ возвысился надъ землею

18 И усиливались воды, и весьма умножались на землј, и ковчегъ плавалъ по поверхности воды.

19 И воды усиливались на землј болје и болје, и покрылись всј высокія горы, какія есть подъ всјмъ небомъ.

20 Еще выше, на пятьнадцать локтей поднялись воды, когда покрылнсь горы.

21 И лишилась жизни всякая плоть, двигавшаяся по землј, птицы, к скотъ, и звјри, и всј гады, ползавшіе по землј, и всј люди.

22 Все, что имјло дыханіе духа жизни въ ноздряхъ своихъ на сушј, померло.

23 И истребилось все, что существовало на поверхности земли, отъ человјка до скота и гада и птицы небесной, все истребилосъ съ земли: и остался только Ной, и что было съ нимъ въ ковчегј.

24 И поднимались воды надъ землею сто пятьдесять дней.

801. This description of these people before the Flood shows the nature of the style used by the most ancient people, and consequently of the prophetical style. From here down to the end of this chapter these people are described, in the present verses as regards their persuasions, and in verse 23 that follows as regards their desires. That is, they are described as regards the state of the things of their understanding, and after that as regards the state of those of their will. Although the proper things of the understanding and of the will did not exist in them, the things in them that were the reverse of these must nevertheless be called things of the understanding and will. Though in no sense things of the understanding, persuasions of falsity must be called such because they are matters of thought and reasoning; and the same applies to desires which are in no sense things of the will. Those people are described, as I say, first of all as regards their persuasions of falsity, and after that as regards their desires. This is the reason why verse 23 which follows repeats, though in a different order, the things referred to in this verse 21.

[2] Such also is the prophetical style, the reason being that there are two kinds of life with man - the first belonging to things of the understanding, the second to those of the will - which are very distinct and separate from each other. Man is composed of both, and although they are separated in man nowadays, they still flow one into the other and for the most part unite. The fact that they unite, and how they do so, could be established and illustrated in many ways. Since man is therefore composed of these two parts - understanding and will - and one flows into the other, the Word when describing man describes each part separately, which is the reason for repetitions; otherwise the description would be defective. As with the will and understanding here, so with everything else. It is their subjects that make things exactly what they are. Being the product of their subjects, they are attributes of those subjects. Things separated from their subject, that is, from their substance, are not anything. This is the reason why when the Word describes something it does so as regards both areas. In this way the description of everything is made complete.
