Genesis 8
1 And God remembered Noah, and all the animals, and all the cattle that were with him in the ark; and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subsided.
Recordatus autem Deus Noe, cunctorumque animantium, et omnium iumentorum, quae erant cum eo in arca, adduxit spiritum super terram, et imminutae sunt aquae.
2 And the fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were closed, and the pour of rain from heaven was stopped.
Et clausi sunt fontes abyssi, et cataractae caeli: et prohibitae sunt pluviae de caelo.
3 And the waters retired from the earth, continually retiring; and in the course of a hundred and fifty days the waters abated.
Reversaeque sunt aquae de terra euntes et redeuntes: et coeperunt minui post centum quinquaginta dies.
4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat.
Requievitque arca mense septimo, vigesimo septimo die mensis super montes Armeniae.
5 And the waters abated continually until the tenth month: in the tenth [month], on the first of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.
At vero aquae ibant et decrescebant usque ad decimum mensem: decimo enim mense, primo die mensis, apparuerunt cacumina montium.
6 And it came to pass at the end of forty days that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made.
Cumque transissent quadraginta dies, aperiens Noe fenestram arcae, quam fecerat, dimisit corvum:
7 And he sent out the raven, which went forth going to and fro, until the waters were dried from the earth.
qui egrediebatur, et non revertebatur, donec siccarentur aquae super terram.
8 And he sent out the dove from him, to see if the waters had become low on the ground.
Emisit quoque columbam post eum, ut videret si iam cessassent aquae super faciem terrae.
9 But the dove found no resting-place for the sole of her foot, and returned to him into the ark; for the waters were on the whole earth; and he put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her to him into the ark.
Quae cum non invenisset ubi requiesceret pes eius, reversa est ad eum in arcam: aquae enim erant super universam terram: extenditque manum suam, et apprehensam intulit in arcam.
10 And he waited yet other seven days, and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark.
Expectatis autem ultra septem diebus aliis, rursum dimisit columbam ex arca.
11 And the dove came to him at eventide; and behold, in her beak was an olive-leaf plucked off; and Noah knew that the waters had become low on the earth.
At illa venit ad eum ad vesperam, portans ramum olivae virentibus foliis in ore suo. intellexit ergo Noe quod cessassent aquae super terram.
12 And he waited yet other seven days, and sent forth the dove; but she returned no more to him.
Expectavitque nihilominus septem alios dies: et emisit columbam, quae non est reversa ultra ad eum.
13 And it came to pass in the six hundred and first year, in the first [month], on the first of the month, that the waters were dried up from the earth. And Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and behold, the surface of the ground was dried.
Igitur sexcentesimo primo anno, primo mense, prima die mensis imminutae sunt aquae super terram: et aperiens Noe tectum arcae, aspexit, viditque quod exiccata esset superficies terrae.
14 And in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.
Mense secundo, septimo et vigesimo die mensis arefacta est terra.
15 And God spoke to Noah, saying,
Locutus est autem Deus ad Noe, dicens:
16 Go out of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee.
Egredere de arca, tu et uxor tua, filii tui et uxores filiorum tuorum tecum.
17 Bring forth with thee every animal which is with thee, of all flesh, fowl as well as cattle, and all the creeping things which creep on the earth, that they may swarm on the earth, and may be fruitful and multiply on the earth.
Cuncta animantia, quae sunt apud te, ex omni carne, tam in volatilibus quam in bestiis et universis reptilibus, quae reptant super terram, educ tecum, et ingredimini super terram: crescite et multiplicamini super eam.
18 And Noah went out, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him.
Egressus est ergo Noe, et filii eius: uxor illius, et uxores filiorum eius cum eo.
19 All the animals, all the creeping things, and all the fowl — everything that moves on the earth, after their kinds, went out of the ark.
Sed et omnia animantia, iumenta, et reptilia quae reptant super terram secundum genus suum, egressa sunt de arca.
20 And Noah built an altar to Jehovah; and took of every clean animal, and of all clean fowl, and offered up burnt-offerings on the altar.
Aedificavit autem Noe altare Domino: et tollens de cunctis pecoribus et volucribus mundis, obtulit holocausta super altare.
21 And Jehovah smelled the sweet odour. And Jehovah said in his heart, I will no more henceforth curse the ground on account of Man, for the thought of Man's heart is evil from his youth; and I will no more smite every living thing, as I have done.
Odoratusque est Dominus odorem suavitatis, et ait: Nequaquam ultra maledicam terrae propter homines: sensus enim et cogitatio humani cordis in malum prona sunt ab adolescentia sua: non igitur ultra percutiam omnem animam viventem sicut feci.
22 Henceforth, all the days of the earth, seed [time] and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, shall not cease.
Cunctis diebus terrae, sementis et messis, frigus et aestus, aestas et hiems, nox et dies non requiescent.
