Genesis 7:20

18 So the waters continued to surge and rise greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the waters.

19 Finally, the waters completely inundated the earth, so that all the high mountains under all the heavens were covered.

The waters rose and covered the mountaintops to a depth of fifteen cubits.

21 And every living thing that moved upon the earth perished—birds, livestock, animals, every creature that swarms upon the earth, and all mankind.

22 Of all that was on dry land, everything that had the breath of life in its nostrils died.
