Chapter 6
4 The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them; the same were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown. {P}

15 And this is how thou shalt make it: the length of the ark three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.

18 But I will establish My covenant with thee; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.

19 And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female.

Chapter 7

12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.

24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth a hundred and fifty days.

Chapter 8

6 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made.

7 And he sent forth a raven, and it went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.

8 And he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground.

9 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him to the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth; and he put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her in unto him into the ark.

10 And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark.

11 And the dove came in to him at eventide; and lo in her mouth an olive-leaf freshly plucked; so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.

12 And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; and she returned not again unto him any more.

13 And it came to pass in the six hundred and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth; and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and behold, the face of the ground was dried.

The Flood in The Epic of Gilgamesh (Tablet XI) - Excerpts 

# data[].attributes.body
Gilgamesh spoke to Utanapishtim, the Faraway:"I have been looking at you,but your appearance is not strange--you are like me!You yourself are not different--you are like me!My mind was resolved to fight with you,(but instead?) my arm lies useless over you.Tell me, how is it that you stand in the Assembly of the Gods,and have found life! "Utanapishtim spoke to Gilgamesh, saying: "I will reveal to you, Gilgamesh, a thing that is hidden,a secret of the gods I will tell you!Shuruppak, a city that you surely know,situated on the banks of the Euphrates,that city was very old, and there were gods inside it.The hearts of the Great Gods moved them to inflict the Flood. [...]

O man of Shuruppak, son of Ubartutu:Tear down the house and build a boat! Abandon wealth and seek living beings! Spurn possessions and keep alive living beings! Make all living beings go up into the boat.The boat which you are to build,its dimensions must measure equal to each other: its length must correspond to its width.Roof it over like the Apsu. [...]

Whatever I had I loaded on it: whatever silver I had I loaded on it, whatever gold I had I loaded on it. All the living beings that I had I loaded on it, I had all my kith and kin go up into the boat, all the beasts and animals of the field and the craftsmen I had go up. [...]

Six days and seven nightscame the wind and flood, the storm flattening the land.When the seventh day arrived, the storm was pounding,the flood was a war--struggling with itself like a womanwrithing (in labor).

The sea calmed, fell still, the whirlwind (and) flood stopped up. [...] When a seventh day arrived I sent forth a dove and released it.The dove went off, but came back to me; no perch was visible so it circled back to me. I sent forth a swallow and released it. The swallow went off, but came back to me; no perch was visible so it circled back to me. I sent forth a raven and released it.
