God Warns Noah

¹⁶ Make a roof for the ark and finish it, leaving 18 inches from the top. Put a door in the side of the ark, and make lower, middle, and upper decks. ¹⁷ I am about to bring floodwaters on the earth to destroy from under the sky all the living creatures that have the breath of life in them. Everything that is on the earth will die, ¹⁸ but I will confirm my covenant with you. You will enter the ark -- you, your sons, your wife, and your sons' wives with you.
