Genesis 6:21-22
"And you shall take for yourself of all food that is
eaten, and you shall gather it to yourself; and it shall be food for
you and for them.” Thus Noah did; according to all that God
commanded him, so he did. Genesis 7:1-16
"Then the LORD said to Noah, “Come into the ark, you and all your
household, because I have seen that you are righteous before
Me in this generation. You shall take with you seven each of every
clean animal, a male and his female; two each of animals that are
unclean, a male and his female; also seven each of birds of the air, male
and female, to keep the species alive on the face of all the earth.
For after seven more days I will cause it to rain on the earth forty days
and forty nights, and I will destroy from the face of the earth all living
things that I have made.” And Noah did according to all that the
LORD commanded him. Noah was six hundred years old when the
floodwaters were on the earth. So Noah, with his sons, his wife,
and his sons’ wives, went into the ark because of the waters of the flood.
Of clean animals, of animals that are unclean, of birds, and of
everything that creeps on the earth, two by two they went into the ark to
Noah, male and female, as God had commanded Noah. And it came to pass after
seven days that the waters of the flood were on the earth. In the six
hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of
the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep were broken up,
and the windows of heaven were opened. And the rain was on the earth
forty days and forty nights. On the very same day Noah and
Noah’s sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and Noah’s wife and the three wives
of his sons with them, entered the ark — they and every beast after its
kind, all cattle after their kind, every creeping thing that creeps on the
earth after its kind, and every bird after its kind, every bird of every
sort. And they went into the ark to Noah, two by two, of all flesh in
which is the breath of life. So those that entered, male and female
of all flesh, went in as God had commanded him; and the LORD shut him
in."
