Genesis 7:3 in Context — Genesis 7

1 E o SENHOR disse a Noé: Entra tu e toda tua casa na arca porque a ti vi justo diante de mim nesta geração.

2 De todo animal limpo tomarás de sete em sete, macho e sua fêmea; mas dos animais que não são limpos, dois, macho e sua fêmea.

3 Também das aves dos céus de sete em sete, macho e fêmea; para guardar em vida a descendência sobre a face de toda a terra.

4 Porque passados ainda sete dias, eu farei chover sobre a terra quarenta dias e quarenta noites; e apagarei toda criatura que fiz de sobre a face da terra.

5 E fez Noé conforme tudo o que lhe mandou o SENHOR.
