In the Abrahamic religions, Noah (/ˈnoʊ.ə/), or Noé or Noach (Hebrew: נֹחַ, נוֹחַ, Modern Noaẖ, Tiberian Nōăḥ; Syriac: ܢܘܚ Nukh; Arabic: نُوح Nūḥ; Ancient Greek: Νῶε), was the tenth and last of the pre-flood Patriarchs. The story of Noah's Ark is told in the Torah in the Genesis flood narrative. The biblical account is followed by the story of the Curse of Canaan.
Besides the Book of Genesis, Noah is also mentioned in 1st Chronicles, Tobit, Wisdom, Sirach, Isaiah, Ezekiel, the Gospel of Matthew, the Gospel of Luke, the Epistle to the Hebrews, 1st Peter and 2nd Peter. He was the subject of much elaboration in the literature of later Abrahamic religions, including the Quran (Sura 71).
The primary account of Noah in the Bible is in the book of Genesis.
Noah was the tenth of the pre-flood (antediluvian) Patriarchs. His father was Lamech and his mother is unknown, but is thought to be either Adah or Zillah, wives of Lamech. When Noah was five hundred years old, he begat Shem, Ham and Japheth (Genesis 5:32).
When I look into her big brown eyes
I can't help but stroke her hair
When she sits up in my lap
All my problems I can air
She whimpers when I stroke her spine
And I know she's feeling fine
The way that she looks at me
Lets me know that she's all mine
As she lays back and I gaze into her eyes
And I think about the missus
And I think about the lies
What would I do if she found out about us two
Would I run away through parks and through the woodlands
And start afresh with you
Start afresh with you
She growls at me when she wants more
And we play into the night
She likes it when we use toys
But makes sure I do it right
There's so many others out there
But it just wouldn't seem right
To let her know I, I tickle on her tummy
And I hold her really tight
As she lays back and I gaze into her eyes
And I think about the missus
And I think about the lies
What would I do if she found out about us two
Would I run away through parks and through the woodlands
And start afresh with you
*Whistles*
I hear a key turn in the door
And it looks like we've been caught
Come on girl I'll get your lead
It's time we took you for a walk
