< Genesis 8 >
1 But God remembered Noah and all the animals and livestock that were with him in the ark. And God sent a wind over the earth, and the waters began to subside.
And he remembered God Noah and every animal and all the livestock which [were] with him in the ark and he made to pass God a wind over the earth and they subsided the waters.
2 The springs of the deep and the floodgates of the heavens were closed, and the rain from the sky was restrained.
And they were shut up [the] springs of [the] deep and [the] floodgates of the heavens and it was restrained the rain from the heavens.
3 The waters receded steadily from the earth, and after 150 days the waters had gone down.
And they turned back the waters from on the earth going and turning back and they decreased the waters from [the] end of fifty and one hundred day[s].
4 On the seventeenth day of the seventh month, the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.
And it rested the ark in the month seventh on [the] seven-teen day of the month on [the] mountains of Ararat.
5 And the waters continued to recede until the tenth month, and on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains became visible.
And the waters they were going and decreasing until the month tenth in the tenth [month] on [day] one of the month they were seen [the] tops of the mountains.
6 After forty days Noah opened the window he had made in the ark
And it was from [the] end of forty day[s] and he opened Noah [the] window of the ark which he had made.
7 and sent out a raven. It kept flying back and forth until the waters had dried up from the earth.
And he sent out the raven and it went out continuously and returned until dried up the waters from on the earth.
8 Then Noah sent out a dove to see if the waters had receded from the surface of the ground.
And he sent out the dove from with him to see ¿ were they abated the waters from on [the] surface of the ground.
9 But the dove found no place to rest her foot, and she returned to him in the ark, because the waters were still covering the surface of all the earth. So he reached out his hand and brought her back inside the ark.
And not found the dove a resting place for [the] sole of foot its and it returned to him into the ark for water [was] on [the] surface of all the earth and he stretched out hand his and he took it and he brought it to him into the ark.
10 Noah waited seven more days and again sent out the dove from the ark.
And he waited again seven days other and he repeated to send out the dove from the ark.
11 And behold, the dove returned to him in the evening with a freshly plucked olive leaf in her beak. So Noah knew that the waters had receded from the earth.
And it came to him the dove to [the] time of evening and there! a leaf of olive freshly plucked [was] in mouth its and he knew Noah that they were abated the waters from on the earth.
12 And Noah waited seven more days and sent out the dove again, but this time she did not return to him.
And he waited again seven days other and he sent out the dove and not it repeated to return to him again.
13 In Noah’s six hundred and first year, on the first day of the first month, the waters had dried up from the earth. So Noah removed the covering from the ark and saw that the surface of the ground was dry.
And it was in one and six hundred year in the first [month] on [day] one of the month they were dried up the waters from on the earth and he removed Noah [the] covering of the ark and he saw and there! they were dried up [the] surface of the ground.
14 By the twenty-seventh day of the second month, the earth was fully dry.
And in the month second on [the] seven and twenty day of the month was dry the earth.
15 Then God said to Noah,
And he spoke God to Noah saying.
16 “Come out of the ark, you and your wife, along with your sons and their wives.
Go out from the ark you and wife your and sons your and [the] wives of sons your with you.
17 Bring out all the living creatures that are with you—birds, livestock, and everything that crawls upon the ground—so that they can spread out over the earth and be fruitful and multiply upon it.”
Every animal which [is] with you some of all flesh among the bird[s] and among the livestock and among every creeping thing which creeps on the earth (bring out *Q(k)*) with you and they will swarm on the earth and they will be fruitful and they will multiply on the earth.
18 So Noah came out, along with his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives.
And he went out Noah and sons his and wife his and [the] wives of sons his with him.
19 Every living creature, every creeping thing, and every bird—everything that moves upon the earth—came out of the ark, kind by kind.
Every animal every creeping thing and every bird every creeping [thing] on the earth to families their they went out from the ark.
20 Then Noah built an altar to the LORD. And taking from every kind of clean animal and clean bird, he offered burnt offerings on the altar.
And he built Noah an altar to Yahweh and he took some of all - the livestock clean and some of every bird clean and he offered up burnt offerings on the altar.
21 When the LORD smelled the pleasing aroma, He said in His heart, “Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from his youth. And never again will I destroy all living creatures as I have done.
And he smelled Yahweh [the] odor of soothing and he said Yahweh to heart his not I will repeat to curse again the ground for sake of humankind for [the] inclination of [the] heart of humankind [is] evil since youth his and not I will repeat again to strike down every living [thing] just as I have done.
22 As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night shall never cease.”
Again all [the] days of the earth seed and harvest and cold and heat and summer and winter and day and night not they will cease.
