Then the Lord shut him in.The flood continued for 40 days on the earth; the waters increased and lifted up the ark so that it rose above the earth.The waters surged and increased greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the water.Then the waters surged even higher on the earth, and all the high mountains under the whole sky were covered.The mountains were covered as the waters surged above them more than 20 feet.

While the Egyptians were trying to escape from it, the Lord threw them into the sea.The waters came back and covered the chariots and horsemen, the entire army of Pharaoh, that had gone after them into the sea.
