Genesis 8

The Flood Subsides

1

But  aGodh430 rememberedh2142 Noahh5146 and allh3605 the beastsh2421b and allh3605 the cattleh929 that were with him in the arkh8392; and  bGodh430 caused a windh7307 to passh5674a overh5921 the earthh776, and the waterh4325 subsidedh7918.

2

Also  athe fountainsh4599 of the deeph8415 and the  1floodgatesh699 of the skyh8064 were closedh5534a, and  bthe rainh1653 from the skyh8064 was restrainedh3607;

3

and the waterh4325 recededh7725 steadilyh1980 from the earthh776, and at the endh7097a  aof one hundredh3967 and fiftyh2572 daysh3117 the waterh4325 decreasedh2637.

4

In the seventhh7637 monthh2320, on the seventeenthh7651h6240 dayh3117 of the monthh2320,  athe arkh8392 restedh5117 upon the mountainsh2022 of Ararath780.

5

The waterh4325 decreasedh2637 steadilyh1980 untilh5704 the tenthh6224 monthh2320; in the tenthh6224 month, on the firsth259 day of the monthh2320, the topsh7218 of the mountainsh2022 becameh7200 visibleh7200.

6

Then it cameh1961 about at the endh7093 of fortyh705 daysh3117, that Noahh5146 openedh6605a the  awindowh2474 of the arkh8392 whichh834 he had madeh6213a;

7

and he senth7971 out a ravenh6158, and it  1flewh3318 hereh3318 and thereh7725 untilh5704 the waterh4325 was driedh3001 up  2from the earthh776.

8

Then he senth7971 out a doveh3123 from him, to seeh7200 if the waterh4325 was abatedh7043 from the faceh6440 of the landh127;

9

but the doveh3123 foundh4672 noh3808 restingh4494 placeh4494 for the soleh3709 of her footh7272, so she returnedh7725 to him into the arkh8392, for the waterh4325 was on the  1surfaceh6440 of allh3605 the earthh776. Then he puth7971 out his handh3027 and tookh3947 her, and broughth935 her into the arkh8392 to himself.

10

So he waitedh2342a yeth5750 anotherh312 sevenh7651 daysh3117; and againh3254 he senth7971 out the doveh3123 from the arkh8392.

11

The doveh3123 cameh935 to him toward  1eveningh6153, and beholdh2009, in her  2beakh6310 was a freshlyh2965 pickedh2965 oliveh2132 leafh5929. So Noahh5146 knewh3045 that the waterh4325 was abatedh7043 from the earthh776.

12

Then he waitedh3176 yeth5750 anotherh312 sevenh7651 daysh3117, and senth7971 out  athe doveh3123; but she did not returnh7725 to him againh3254.

13

Now it cameh1961 about in the  asixh8337a hundredh3967 and firsth259 yearh8141, in the firsth7223 month, on the firsth259 of the monthh2320, the waterh4325 was driedh2717a up  1from the earthh776. Then Noahh5146 removedh5493 the coveringh4372 of the arkh8392, and lookedh7200, and beholdh2009, the  2surfaceh6440 of the groundh127 was driedh2717a up.

14

In the secondh8145 monthh2320, on the twenty-seventhh6242h7651 dayh3117 of the monthh2320, the earthh776 was dryh3001.

15

Then Godh430 spokeh1696 to Noahh5146, sayingh559,

16

"Goh3318 out of the arkh8392, you and your wifeh802 and your sonsh1121 and your sons'h1121 wivesh802 with you.

17

"Bringh3318 out with you everyh3605 livingh2421b thingh2421b of allh3605 fleshh1320 that is with you, birdsh5775 and animalsh929 and everyh3605 creepingh7431 thingh7431 that creepsh7430 on the earthh776, that they may  1 abreedh8317 abundantlyh8317 on the earthh776, and be fruitfulh6509 and multiplyh7235a on the earthh776."

18

So Noahh5146 wenth3318 out, and his sonsh1121 and his wifeh802 and his sons'h1121 wivesh802 with him.

19

Everyh3605 beasth2421b, everyh3605 creepingh7431 thingh7431, and everyh3605 birdh5775, everythingh3605 that movesh7430 on the earthh776, wenth3318 out  1by their familiesh4940 from the arkh8392.

20

Then Noahh5146 builth1129  aan altarh4196 to the LORDh3068, and tookh3947 of everyh3605  bcleanh2889 animalh929 and of everyh3605 cleanh2889 birdh5775 and offeredh5927  cburnth5930a offeringsh5930a on the altarh4196.

21

The LORDh3068  asmelledh7381a the soothingh5207 aromah7381b; and the LORDh3068 saidh559  1to Himselfh3820, "I will neverh3808h5750 againh3254  bcurseh7043 the groundh127 on accounth5668 of manh120, for  cthe  2intenth3336 of man'sh120 hearth3820 is evilh7451a from his youthh5271;  dand I will neverh3808h5750 againh3254  3destroyh5221 everyh3605 livingh2416a thingh2416a, as I have doneh6213a.

22

"Whileh5750 the earthh776 remainsh5750, Seedtimeh2233 and harvesth7105a, And coldh7120 and heath2527, And  asummerh7019c and winterh2779, And  bdayh3117 and nighth3915 Shall not ceaseh7673a."
