Genesis 8
1 And God remembers Noah, and every living thing, and all the livestock which [are] with him in the Ark, and God causes a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subside,
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 network of the heavens are closed, and the shower is restrained from the heavens.
Et clausi sunt fontes abyssi, et cataractae caeli: et prohibitae sunt pluviae de caelo.
3 And the waters return from off the earth, going on and returning; and the waters are lacking at the end of one hundred and fifty days.
Reversaeque sunt aquae de terra euntes et redeuntes: et coeperunt minui post centum quinquaginta dies.
4 And the Ark rests, in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on mountains of Ararat;
Requievitque arca mense septimo, vigesimo septimo die mensis super montes Armeniae.
5 and the waters have been going and decreasing until the tenth month; in the tenth [month], on the first of the month, the heads of the mountains appeared.
At vero aquae ibant et decrescebant usque ad decimum mensem: decimo enim mense, primo die mensis, apparuerunt cacumina montium.
6 And it comes to pass, at the end of forty days, that Noah opens the window of the Ark which he made,
Cumque transissent quadraginta dies, aperiens Noe fenestram arcae, quam fecerat, dimisit corvum:
7 and he sends forth the raven, and it goes out, going out and turning back until the drying of the waters from off the earth.
qui egrediebatur, et non revertebatur, donec siccarentur aquae super terram.
8 And he sends forth the dove from him to see whether the waters have been lightened from off the face of the ground,
Emisit quoque columbam post eum, ut videret si iam cessassent aquae super faciem terrae.
9 and the dove has not found rest for the sole of her foot, and she turns back to him, to the Ark, for waters [are] on the face of all the earth, and he puts out his hand, and takes her, and brings her in 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 stays yet seven more days, and adds to send forth the dove from the Ark;
Expectatis autem ultra septem diebus aliis, rursum dimisit columbam ex arca.
11 and the dove comes to him at evening, and behold, an olive leaf [is] torn off in her mouth; and Noah knows that the waters have been lightened from off 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 stays yet seven more days, and sends forth the dove, and it did not add to return to him anymore.
Expectavitque nihilominus septem alios dies: et emisit columbam, quae non est reversa ultra ad eum.
13 And it comes to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first [month], on the first of the month, the waters have been dried from off the earth; and Noah turns aside the covering of the Ark, and looks, and behold, the face of the ground has been 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 has become dry.
Mense secundo, septimo et vigesimo die mensis arefacta est terra.
15 And God speaks to Noah, saying, “Go out from the Ark, you, and your wife, and your sons, and your sons’ wives with you;
Locutus est autem Deus ad Noe, dicens:
16 every living thing that [is] with you, of all flesh, among bird, and among livestock, and among every creeping thing which is creeping on the earth, bring out with you;
Egredere de arca, tu et uxor tua, filii tui et uxores filiorum tuorum tecum.
17 and they have teemed in the earth, and been fruitful, and have multiplied 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 goes 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 every beast, every creeping thing, and every bird; every creeping thing on the earth, after their families, have gone out from the Ark.
Sed et omnia animantia, iumenta, et reptilia quae reptant super terram secundum genus suum, egressa sunt de arca.
20 And Noah builds an altar to YHWH, and takes from every clean beast and from every clean bird, and causes burnt-offerings to ascend on the altar;
Aedificavit autem Noe altare Domino: et tollens de cunctis pecoribus et volucribus mundis, obtulit holocausta super altare.
21 and YHWH smells the refreshing fragrance, and YHWH says to His heart, “I do not continue to disfavor the ground because of man anymore, though the imagination of the heart of man [is] evil from his youth; and I do not continue to strike all living anymore, 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 during all [the] days of the earth, seed-time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night never cease.”
Cunctis diebus terrae, sementis et messis, frigus et aestus, aestas et hiems, nox et dies non requiescent.
A Dove is Sent Forth from the Ark
