Take with you seven pairs of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate, and one pair of every kind of animal that is not clean, a male and its mate,
In context
1Yahweh said to Noah, “Go into the ark, you and all your household, for I have seen that you alone are righteous before me in this generation. 2Take with you seven pairs of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate, and one pair of every kind of animal that is not clean, a male and its mate, 3and also seven pairs of every kind of bird of the sky, male and female, to keep their offspring alive on the face of the whole earth. 4In seven days I will send rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights, and I will wipe from the face of the ground every living thing I have made.”
