Put a door in one side of the ark. Make lower, middle and upper decks.I am going to bring a flood on the earth. It will destroy all life under the sky. It will destroy every living creature that breathes. Everything on earth will die.But I will make my covenant with you. You will go into the ark. Your sons and your wife and your sons’ wives will enter it with you.Bring a male and a female of every living thing into the ark. They will be kept alive with you.Two of every kind of bird will come to you. Two of every kind of animal will also come to you. And so will two of every kind of creature that moves along the ground. All of them will be kept alive with you.Take every kind of food that you will need.
