Today's Scripture [1-16-13]

   And the flood was forty days upon the earth;
and the waters increased, and bare up the ark,
and it was lift up above the earth.
   And the waters prevailed, and were increased
greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon
the face of the waters.
   And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon
the earth; and all the high hills, that were under
the whole heaven, were covered.
   Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail;
and the mountains were covered.
   And all flesh died that moved upon the earth,
both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of
every creeping thing that creepeth upon the
earth, and every man:
   All in whose nostrils was the breath of life,
of all that was in the dry land, died.
   And every living substance was destroyed
which was upon the face of the ground, both
man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and
the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed
from the earth: and Noah only remained alive,
and they that were with him in the ark.
   And the waters prevailed upon the earth an
hundred and fifty days.
