Building The Ark


Comque vidisset Deus terran esse corruptam omnis
quippe caro corruperat viam suam super terram
Fac tibi arcam de lignis levigatis mansiunculas
in arca facies et bitumine linies intrinsecus et extrinsecus
...corrupta est autem terra coram Deo...
Et ex cunctis animantibus universe carnis bina indu-
ces in arcam ut vivant tecum...

"Thy servants are we.
our lord who sits up high,
Thy rod and thy staff,
shall comfort and guide our hands"

[Translation:]
And God looks upon the earth, and, behold, it was
corrupt for all flesh
had corrupted his way upon the earth.

"Make Thee an ark of gopher wood;
rooms shall thou make in the ark,
and shall pitch it within and without with
pitch"
...The earth was corrupt before God.
"Of every living thing of all flesh,
two of even sort shall thou bring
into the ark
to keep them alive
with thee"
