1 A nd God remembereth Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle which with him in the ark, and God causeth a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subside,

But God remembered Noah and all the beasts and all the cattle that were with him in the ark; and God caused a wind to pass over the earth, and the water subsided.

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

Also the fountains of the deep and the floodgates of the sky were closed, and the rain from the sky was restrained;

3 A nd 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.

and the water receded steadily from the earth, and at the end of one hundred and fifty days the water decreased.

4 A nd the ark resteth, in the seventh month, in the seventeenth day of the month, on mountains of Ararat;

In the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ark rested upon the mountains of Ararat.

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

The water decreased steadily until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains became visible.

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

Then it came about at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made;

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

and he sent out a raven, and it flew here and there until the water was dried up from the earth.

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

Then he sent out a dove from him, to see if the water was abated from the face of the land;

9 a nd the dove hath not found rest for the sole of her foot, and she turneth back unto him, unto the ark, for waters 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.

but the dove found no resting place for the sole of her foot, so she returned to him into the ark, for the water was on the surface of all the earth. Then he put out his hand and took her, and brought her into the ark to himself.

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

So he waited yet another seven days; and again he sent out the dove from the ark.

11 a nd 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.

The dove came to him toward evening, and behold, in her beak was a freshly picked olive leaf. So Noah knew that the water was abated from the earth.

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

Then he waited yet another seven days, and sent out the dove; but she did not return to him again.

13 A nd it cometh to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first, 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.

Now it came about in the six hundred and first year, in the first month, on the first of the month, the water was dried up from the earth. Then Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and behold, the surface of the ground was dried up.

14 A nd in the second month, in the seven and twentieth day of the month, the earth hath become dry.

In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.

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

Then God spoke to Noah, saying,

16 e very living thing that 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;

“Go out of the ark, you and your wife and your sons and your sons’ wives with you.

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

Bring out with you every living thing of all flesh that is with you, birds and animals and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, that they may breed abundantly on the earth, and be fruitful and multiply on the earth.”

18 A nd Noah goeth out, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him;

So Noah went out, and his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives with him.

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

Every beast, every creeping thing, and every bird, everything that moves on the earth, went out by their families from the ark.

20 A nd 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;

Then Noah built an altar to the Lord, and took of every clean animal and of every clean bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar.

21 a nd 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 evil from his youth; and I continue not to smite any more all living, as I have done;

The Lord smelled the soothing aroma; and the Lord said to Himself, “I will never again curse the ground on account of man, for the intent of man’s heart is evil from his youth; and I will never again destroy every living thing, as I have done.

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

“While the earth remains, Seedtime and harvest, And cold and heat, And summer and winter, And day and night Shall not cease.”
