Genesis 8

1 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.

And God remembereth Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle which [are] with him in the ark, and God causeth a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subside,

2 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.

and closed are the fountains of the deep and the net-work of the heavens, and restrained is the shower from the heavens.

3 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].

And turn back do the waters from off the earth, going on and returning; and the waters are lacking at the end of a hundred and fifty days.

4 And it rested the ark in the month seventh on [the] seven-teen day of the month on [the] mountains of Ararat.

And the ark resteth, in the seventh month, in the seventeenth day of the month, on mountains of Ararat;

5 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.

and the waters have been going and becoming lacking till the tenth month; in the tenth [month], on the first of the month, appeared the heads of the mountains.

6 And it was from [the] end of forty day[s] and he opened Noah [the] window of the ark which he had made.

And it cometh to pass, at the end of forty days, that Noah openeth the window of the ark which he made,

7 And he sent out the raven and it went out continuously and returned until dried up the waters from on the earth.

and he sendeth forth the raven, and it goeth out, going out and turning back till the drying of the waters from off the earth.

8 And he sent out the dove from with him to see ¿ were they abated the waters from on [the] surface of the ground.

And he sendeth forth the dove from him to see whether the waters have been lightened from off the face of the ground,

9 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.

and the dove hath not found rest for the sole of her foot, and she turneth back unto him, unto the ark, for waters [are] on the face of all the earth, and he putteth out his hand, and taketh her, and bringeth her in unto him, unto the ark.

10 And he waited again seven days other and he repeated to send out the dove from the ark.

And he stayeth yet other seven days, and addeth to send forth the dove from the ark;

11 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.

and the dove cometh in unto him at even-time, and lo, an olive leaf torn off in her mouth; and Noah knoweth that the waters have been lightened from off the earth.

12 And he waited again seven days other and he sent out the dove and not it repeated to return to him again.

And he stayeth yet other seven days, and sendeth forth the dove, and it added not to turn back unto him any more.

13 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.

And it cometh to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first [month], in the first of the month, the waters have been dried from off the earth; and Noah turneth aside the covering of the ark, and looketh, and lo, the face of the ground hath been dried.

14 And in the month second on [the] seven and twenty day of the month was dry the earth.

And in the second month, in the seven and twentieth day of the month, the earth hath become dry.

15 And he spoke God to Noah saying.

And God speaketh unto Noah, saying, 'Go out from the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee;

16 Go out from the ark you and wife your and sons your and [the] wives of sons your with you.

every living thing that [is] with thee, of all flesh, among fowl, and among cattle, and among every creeping thing which is creeping on the earth, bring out with thee;

17 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.

and they have teemed in the earth, and been fruitful, and have multiplied on the earth.'

18 And he went out Noah and sons his and wife his and [the] wives of sons his with him.

And Noah goeth out, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him;

19 Every animal every creeping thing and every bird every creeping [thing] on the earth to families their they went out from the ark.

every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl; every creeping thing on the earth, after their families, have gone out from the ark.

20 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.

And Noah buildeth an altar to Jehovah, and taketh of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and causeth burnt-offerings to ascend on the altar;

21 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.

and Jehovah smelleth the sweet fragrance, and Jehovah saith unto His heart, 'I continue not to disesteem any more the ground because of man, though the imagination of the heart of man [is] evil from his youth; and I continue not to smite any more all living, as I have done;

22 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.

during all days of the earth, seed-time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, do not cease.'
