Genesis 7:19

Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 version

And the waters prevailed beyond measure upon the earth: and all the high mountains under the whole heaven were covered.

See the chapter Copy

Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished.

In very deed the hills were liars, and the multitude of the mountains: truly in the Lord our God is the salvation of Israel.

If he withhold the waters, all things shall be dried up: and if he send them out, they shall overturn the earth.

For they overflowed exceedingly: and filled all on the face of the earth: and the ark was carried upon the waters.

The water was fifteen cubits higher than the mountains which it covered.
