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 wild animals and all the cattle that were with him in the large boat. Then God made a wind blow over the earth until the water went down.

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 wells of water under the earth and the windows of the heavens were shut. And it stopped raining.

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.

The water kept moving away from the earth. At the end of 150 days the water was less.

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

And in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the large boat came to rest on Mount 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 kept on going down until the tenth month. In the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains could be seen.

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

At the end of forty days, Noah opened the window of the large boat 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.

Then 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, to see if the water was gone from the ground.

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 place to set her foot, so she returned to him in the boat. For the water was still over the earth. So Noah put out his hand and took her, and brought her into the boat with him.

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

He waited another seven days, and sent the dove from the boat again.

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 returned to him in the evening. In her mouth was an olive leaf that had just been picked. So Noah knew that the water had gone 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 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.

In the year 601, in the first month, on the first day of the month, the water was dried up from the earth. Then Noah took the covering off the large boat, and looked out and saw that the earth was dry.

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 ground 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 said to Noah,

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 boat, 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 everything that moves on the earth. So they may give birth and become many upon the earth.”

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

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

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 animal, every bird, everything that moves on the earth, went out of the large boat by their families.

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. He took of every clean animal and every clean bird, and gave burnt gifts in worship 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;

Then the Lord smelled a pleasing smell. And the Lord said to Himself, “I will never again curse the ground because of man. For the desire of man’s heart is sinful from when he is young. 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 lasts, planting time and gathering time, cold and heat, summer and winter, and day and night will not end.”
