Genesis 6:16 in Context — Genesis 6
14 Faze-te uma arca de madeira de gôfer: farás aposentos na arca e a selarás com betume por dentro e por fora.
15 E desta maneira a farás: de trezentos côvados o comprimento da arca, de cinquenta côvados sua largura, e de trinta côvados sua altura.
16 Uma janela farás à arca, e a acabarás a um côvado de elevação pela parte de cima: e porás a porta da arca a seu lado; e lhe farás piso abaixo, segundo e terceiro.
17 E eu, eis que eu trago um dilúvio de águas sobre a terra, para destruir toda carne em que haja espírito de vida debaixo do céu; tudo o que há na terra morrerá.
18 Mas estabelecerei meu pacto contigo, e entrarás na arca tu, e teus filhos e tua mulher, e as mulheres de teus filhos contigo.
