Genesis 7:20 in Context — Genesis 7
18 E prevaleceram as águas, e cresceram em grande maneira sobre a terra; e andava a arca sobre a face das águas.
19 E as águas prevaleceram muito em extremo sobre a terra; e todos os montes altos que havia debaixo de todos os céus, foram cobertos.
20 Quinze côvados em altura prevaleceram as águas; e foram cobertos os montes.
21 E morreu toda carne que se move sobre a terra, tanto de aves como de gados, e de animais, e de todo réptil que anda arrastando sobre a terra, e todo ser humano:
22 Tudo o que tinha fôlego de espírito de vida em suas narinas, de tudo o que havia na terra, morreu.
