Noah's to take every kind of food that is to be eaten and store it away as food for him and for them.

         Noah did everything just as God commanded him.

God told Noah to bring into the ark two of all living creatures,  male and female, to keep them alive with him. 

      Two of every kind of bird, of every kind of animal and of every kind of creature that moves along the ground will come to him to be kept alive.

God said He's going to bring floodwaters on the earth to destroy all life under the heavens, every creature that has the breath of life in it. Everything on earth will perish. 

          But He will establish His covenant with Noah and Noah will enter the ark, Noah and his sons and his wife and his sons wives with him.

So God told Noah to make an ark of cypress wood; make rooms in it and coat it with pitch inside and out.

          This is how God told him to build the ark: the ark is to be three hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide and thirty cubits high. Make a roof for it, leaving below the roof an opening one cubit high all around. Put a door in the side of the ark and make lower, middle and upper decks.

The earth was corrupt in God's sight and was full of violence. God saw how corrupt the earth had become, for all the people on earth had corrupted their way.

         So God told Noah that He was going to put an end to all the people, for the earth is filled with violence because of them. He was surely going to destroy both them and the earth. 

Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord. He was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time and he walked faithfully with God.

         Noah had three sons: Shem, Ham and Japheth.

The Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth and his heart was deeply troubled.

        So the Lord said He would wipe from the face of the earth the human race that He had created and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground, for He regretted that He had made them.

The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time.

The Nephilim  [giants] were on the earth in those days, and also forward, when the sons of God went to the daughters of humans and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.

Then the Lord said He will not contend with humans forever, for they  are mortal; their days will be a hundred and twenty years.

When human beings began to increase in number on the earth and daughters were born to them, the sons of God saw that the daughters of humans were beautiful and they married any of them they chose.

After Noah was 500 years old, he became the father of Shem, Ham and Japheth.

When Lamech had lived 182 years, he had a son. He named him Noah and said, "He will comfort us in the labor and painful toil of our hands caused by the ground the Lord has cursed."

          After Noah was born, Lamech lived 595 years and had other sons and daughters. Altogether, Lamech lived a total of 777 years and then he died.

When Methuselah had lived 187 years, he became the father of Lamech.

          After he became the father Lamech, Methuselah lived 782 years and had other sons and daughters. Altogether, Methuselah lived a total of 969 years and then he died.

When Enoch had lived 65 years, he became the father of Methuselah.

          After he became the father of Methuselah, Enoch walked faithfully with God 300 years and had other sons and daughters. Altogether Enoch lived a total of 365 years. 

                 Enoch walked with God; then he was no more, because God took him away.

When Jared had lived 162 years, he became the father of Enoch.

         After he became the father of Enoch, Jared lived 800 years and had other sons and daughters. Altogether, Jared lived a total of 962 years and then he died.

When Mahalalel had lived 65 years, he became the father of Jared.

         After he became the father of Jared, Mahalalel live 830 years and had other sons and daughters. Altogether, Mahalalel lived a total of 895 years and then he died.

When Kenan had lived 70 years, he became the father of Mahalalel. 

        After he became the father of Mahalalel, Kenan lived 840 years and had other sons and daughters. Altogether, Kenan lived a total of 910 years and then he died.

When Enosh had lived 90 years, he became the father of Kenan.

       After he became the father of Kenan, Enosh  lived 815 years and had other sons and daughters. Altogether, Enosh lived a total of 905 years and then he died.

When Seth had lived 105 years, he became the father of Enosh.

          After he became the father of Enosh, Seth lived 807 years and had other sons and daughters. Altogether, Seth lived a total of 912 years and then he died.

When Adam had lived 130 years, he had a son in his own likeness, in his own image and named him Seth.

         After Seth was born, Adam lived 800 years and had other sons and daughters. Altogether, Adam lived a total of 930 years, and then he died.

Adam's wife Eve gave birth to another son and named him Seth. She said, "God has granted me another child in place of Abel, since Cain killed him."

         At that time people began to call on the name of the Lord.

Lamech told his wives, Adah and Zillah, to listen to him. He killed a man for wounding him; a young man for injuring him.

       If Cain was avenged seven times, then Lamech felt he should be seventy-seven times.

Enoch bore Irad and Irad was the father of Mehujael and Mehujael was the father of Methushael and Methushael was the father of Lamech.

       Lamech married two women, one named Adah and the other Zillah.

              Adah gave birth to Jabal; he was the father of those who live in tents and raised livestock. His brother named Jubal; he was the father of all who played stringed instruments and pipes.

                      Zillah also had a son, Tubal-Cain, who made all kinds of tools out of bronze and iron. His sister was Naamah.

So Cain went out from God's presence and lived in the land of Nod, east of Eden.

       Cain loved his wife and she conceived and gave birth to Enoch. 

               Cain was then building a city and he named it after his son Enoch.

Cain said his punishment was more that he could bear.  God was driving him from the land and he would be hidden from His presence; and that he would be a restless wanderer on the earth and anyone finding him would kill him.

        God told Cain that anyone who would kill him would suffer vengeance seven times over.

                 Then God put a mark on Cain so that no one who found him would kill him.

Then God asked Cain where's his brother. Cain said he didn't know, was he is brothers keeper?

        So God asked him what he had done and that his brother's blood cries out to Him from the ground. And then told Cain that he was under a curse.

               God told Cain that when he would work the ground that it would no long yield its crops for him and that he would be a restless wanderer on the earth.
