And the waters prevailed beyond measure across the earth. And all the lofty mountains under the whole heaven were covered.
For they overflowed greatly, and they filled everything on the surface of the earth. And then the ark was carried across the waters.
The water was fifteen cubits higher than the mountains which it covered.
If he restrains the waters, everything will dry up; and if he sends them forth, they will subdue the land.
Truly, the hills were liars, with the multitude of the mountains. Truly, the salvation of Israel is in the Lord our God.
By water, the former world then, having been inundated with water, perished.
