¹⁷ I will bring a flood of water on the earth to destroy all ·living things [^Lflesh] that live under ·the sky [heaven], including everything that has the breath of life. Everything on the earth will die. ¹⁸ But I will ·make [establish] an ·agreement [covenant; treaty] with you—you, your sons, your wife, and your sons’ wives will all go into the boat. ¹⁹ Also, you must bring into the ·boat [^Lark] two of ·every living thing [^Lall flesh], male and female. Keep them alive with you.
