    In the dawn of time, the world was filled with wickedness and sin. Amongst it all, there was one man, Noah, who was virtuous and obedient to God.

    One day, God spoke to Noah, expressing disappointment over mankind's actions and revealing a plan to cleanse the earth with a great flood.

    God instructed Noah to build an enormous ark, capable of holding his family and a pair of every kind of animal. Noah received the divine command with humility and started his laborious task.

    Noah's sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth, helped him in this colossal endeavor. They sawed, hammered, and hoisted, working tirelessly under their father's guidance.

    After months of labor, the ark, a massive structure of cypress wood, stood tall and strong. It was a testament to Noah's obedience and his family's hard work.

    With the ark completed, Noah received another message from God. It was now time to gather the animals.

    Noah and his sons set out to gather the animals. From the smallest insects to the biggest beasts, they welcomed all into the ark.

    Among the animals, there were elephants with their trumpeting trunks, and lions with their majestic manes. Birds of every color and fish of every shape also found their way to the ark.

    After many days, the ark was filled with a pair of every living creature. Noah, his family, and the animals waited for the rain.

    Then, the rain started. It was not just a drizzle, but a relentless downpour. The skies opened, and water covered the earth.

    As the water level rose, the ark began to float. Noah, his family, and the animals were safe inside, while the rest of the world was swept away by the flood.

    The rain continued for forty days and forty nights. Noah and his family took turns caring for the animals and praying for the world outside.

    When the rain finally stopped, the world outside was unrecognizable. The earth was covered in water, and there was no land in sight.

    Noah and his family waited patiently for the water to recede. They played games, shared stories, and continued to care for the animals.

    After many months, Noah sent out a dove to see if the water had receded. The dove returned without finding a place to land.

    A week later, Noah sent the dove again. This time, it returned with an olive leaf in its beak, indicating the presence of dry land.

    When the earth was finally dry, God commanded Noah to leave the ark. Noah, his family, and the animals stepped out onto a world reborn.

    They were greeted by the lush greenery of the land and the fresh air. The world was cleansed, ready for a new beginning.

    Noah built an altar and offered sacrifices to God. He thanked Him for saving them and promised to live righteously.

    God made a covenant with Noah. He promised never again to destroy the earth with a flood and created the rainbow as a sign of this promise.
