Genesis 8

1 And God remembered Noah, and all the wild animals, and all the tame animals, and all the flying creatures, and all the crawling creatures that were with him in the ship; and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters began to recede.

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.

2 And the fountains of the deep and the floodgates of the sky were closed, and the rain from the sky was restrained.

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.

3 And the waters receded steadily from the land. And after the end of one hundred fifty days the waters had decreased significantly.

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].

4 And in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ship came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.

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

5 The waters receded continually to the tenth month. In the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains became visible.

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.

6 It happened at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ship which he had made,

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

7 and he sent forth a raven. It went back and forth, until the waters had dried up from the earth.

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

8 Then he sent forth a dove from it, to see if the waters had abated from the surface of the ground,

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

9 but the dove found no place to rest her foot, and she returned to him into the ship; for the waters were on the surface of the whole earth. He put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her to him into the ship.

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.

10 And he waited yet another seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ship.

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

11 The dove came back to him at evening, and, look, in her mouth was an olive leaf plucked off. So Noah knew that the waters had abated from the earth.

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.

12 He stayed yet another seven days, and sent forth the dove; and she did not return to him any more.

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

13 And it happened in the six hundred first year of Noah's life, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters had dried up from the earth. And Noah removed the covering of the ship and looked out. And look, the surface of the ground was dry.

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.

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

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

15 God spoke to Noah, saying,

And he spoke God to Noah saying.

16 "Go out of the ship, you, and your wife, and your sons, and your sons' wives with you.

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

17 Bring out with you every living thing that is with you of all flesh, of flying creatures, and animals, and every creature that crawls on the earth, that they may swarm on the earth, and be fruitful and multiply on the earth."

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.

18 And Noah went forth, with his sons, his wife, and his sons' wives with him.

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

19 And every wild animal, and every tame animal, and every flying creature, and every creature that crawls on the earth, after their families, went out of the ship.

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

20 Noah built an altar to God, and took of every clean animal, and of every clean flying creature, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.

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.

21 And God smelled the pleasing aroma, and God said in his heart, "I will never again curse the ground because of humankind, even though the inclination of his heart is evil from his youth, nor will I again destroy every living thing, as I have done.

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.

22 While the earth remains, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease."

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.
