Genesis 7:17-19

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁷ The flood [that is, the downpour of rain] was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased and bore up the ark, and it was lifted [high] above the land.

¹⁸ And the waters became mighty and increased greatly upon the land, and the ark went [gently floating] upon the surface of the waters.

¹⁹ And the waters prevailed so exceedingly and were so mighty upon the earth that all the high hills under the whole sky were covered.
