Genesis 8
1 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,
Recordatus autem Deus Noe, cunctorumque animantium, et omnium iumentorum, quæ erant cum eo in arca, adduxit spiritum super terram, et imminutæ sunt aquæ.
2 and closed are the fountains of the deep and the net-work of the heavens, and restrained is the shower from the heavens.
Et clausi sunt fontes abyssi, et cataractæ cæli: et prohibitæ sunt pluviæ de cælo.
3 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.
Reversæque sunt aquæ de terra euntes et redeuntes: et cœperunt minui post centum quinquaginta dies.
4 And the ark resteth, in the seventh month, in the seventeenth day of the month, on mountains of Ararat;
Requievitque arca mense septimo, vigesimo septimo die mensis super montes Armeniæ.
5 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.
At vero aquæ ibant et decrescebant usque ad decimum mensem: decimo enim mense, primo die mensis, apparuerunt cacumina montium.
6 And it cometh to pass, at the end of forty days, that Noah openeth the window of the ark which he made,
Cumque transissent quadraginta dies, aperiens Noe fenestram arcæ, quam fecerat, dimisit corvum:
7 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.
qui egrediebatur, et non revertebatur, donec siccarentur aquæ super terram.
8 And he sendeth 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 aquæ super faciem terræ.
9 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.
Quæ cum non invenisset ubi requiesceret pes eius, reversa est ad eum in arcam: aquæ enim erant super universam terram: extenditque manum, et apprehensam intulit in arcam.
10 And he stayeth yet other seven days, and addeth to send forth the dove from the ark;
Expectatis autem ultra septem diebus aliis, rursum dimisit columbam ex arca.
11 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.
At illa venit ad eum ad vesperam, portans ramum olivæ virentibus foliis in ore suo. intellexit ergo Noe quod cessassent aquæ super terram.
12 And he stayeth yet other seven days, and sendeth forth the dove, and it added not to turn back unto him any more.
Expectavitque nihilominus septem alios dies: et emisit columbam, quæ non est reversa ultra ad eum.
13 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.
Igitur sexcentesimo primo anno, primo mense, prima die mensis imminutæ sunt aquæ super terram: et aperiens Noe tectum arcæ, aspexit, viditque quod exiccata esset superficies terræ.
14 And in the second month, in the seven and twentieth day of the month, the earth hath become dry.
Mense secundo, septimo et vigesimo die mensis arefacta est terra.
15 And God speaketh unto Noah, saying, 'Go out from the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee;
Locutus est autem Deus ad Noe, dicens:
16 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;
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, quæ sunt apud te, ex omni carne, tam in volatilibus quam in bestiis et universis reptilibus, quæ reptant super terram, educ tecum, et ingredimini super terram: crescite et multiplicamini super eam.
18 And Noah goeth 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 fowl; every creeping thing on the earth, after their families, have gone out from the ark.
Sed et omnia animantia, iumenta, et reptilia quæ reptant super terram secundum genus suum, egressa sunt de arca.
20 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;
Ædificavit autem Noe altare Domino: et tollens de cunctis pecoribus et volucribus mundis, obtulit holocausta super altare.
21 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;
Odoratusque est Dominus odorem suavitatis, et ait: Nequaquam ultra maledicam terræ 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 days of the earth, seed-time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, do not cease.'
Cunctis diebus terræ, sementis et messis, frigus et æstus, æstas et hiems, nox et dies non requiescent.
A Dove is Sent Forth from the Ark
