8AND GOD [earnestly] remembered Noah and every living thing and all the animals that were with him in the ark; and God made a wind blow over the land, and the waters sank down {and} abated.H430H2142H5146H2416H929H8392H430H5674H7307H5674H5921H776H4325H7918 2Also the fountains of the deep and the windows of the heavens were closed, the gushing rain from the sky was checked,H4599H8415H699H8064H5534H1653H8064H3607 3And the waters receded from the land continually. At the end of 150 days the waters had diminished.H4325H7725H776H1980H7725H7097H3967H2572H3117H4325H2637 4On the seventeenth day of the seventh month the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat [in Armenia].H8392H5117H7637H2320H6240H7651H3117H2320H2022H780 5And the waters continued to diminish until the tenth month; on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the high hills were seen.H4325H2637H1980H5704H6224H2320H6224H259H2320H7218H2022H7200 6At the end of [another] forty days Noah opened {a} window of the ark which he had madeH7093H705H3117H5146H6605H2474H8392H6213 7And sent forth a raven, which kept going to and fro until the waters were dried up from the land.H7971H6158H3318H3318H7725H4325H3001H776 8Then he sent forth a dove to see if the waters had decreased from the surface of the ground.H7971H3123H7200H4325H7043H6440H127 9But the dove found no resting-place on which to roost, and she returned to him to the ark, for the waters were [yet] on the face of the whole land. So he put forth his hand and drew her to him into the ark.H3123H4672H4494H3709H7272H7725H8392H4325H6440H776H7971H3027H3947H935H8392 10He waited another seven days and again sent forth the dove out of the ark.H2342H312H7651H3117H3254H7971H3123H8392 11And the dove came back to him in the evening, and behold, in her mouth was a newly sprouted {and} freshly plucked olive leaf! So Noah knew that the waters had subsided from the land.H3123H935H6256H6153H6310H2132H5929H2965H5146H3045H4325H7043H776 12Then he waited another seven days and sent forth the dove, but she did not return to him any more.H3176H312H7651H3117H7971H3123H7725H3254H5750 13In the year 601 [of Noah's life], on the first day of the first month, the waters were drying up from the land. And Noah removed the covering of the ark and looked, and behold, the surface of the ground was drying.H8337H3967H8141H7223H259H2320H4325H2717H776H5146H5493H4372H8392H7200H6440H127H2717 14And on the twenty-seventh day of the second month the land was entirely dry.H8145H2320H7651H6242H3117H2320H776H3001 15And God spoke to Noah, saying,H430H1696H5146H559 16Go forth from the ark, you and your wife and your sons and their wives with you.H3318H8392H802H1121H1121H802 17Bring forth every living thing that is with you of all flesh--birds and beasts and every creeping thing that creeps on the ground--that they may breed abundantly on the land and be fruitful and multiply upon the earth.H3318H2416H1320H5775H929H7431H7430H776H8317H776H6509H7235H776 18And Noah went forth, and his wife and his sons and their wives with him [after being in the ark one year and ten days].H5146H3318H1121H802H1121H802 19Every beast, every creeping thing, every bird--and whatever moves on the land--went forth by families out of the ark.H2416H7431H5775H3605H7430H776H4940H3318H8392 20And Noah built an altar to the Lord and took of every clean [four-footed] animal and of every clean fowl {or} bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar.H5146H1129H4196H3068H3947H2889H929H2889H5775H5927H5930H4196 21When the Lord smelled the pleasing odor [a scent of satisfaction to His heart], the Lord said to Himself, I will never again curse the ground because of man, for the imagination (the strong desire) of man's heart is evil {and} wicked from his youth; neither will I ever again smite {and} destroy every living thing, as I have done.H3068H7306H5207H7381H3068H559H413H3820H3254H7043H127H120H5668H3336H120H3820H7451H5271H3254H5221H2416H6213 22While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.H776H3117H2233H7105H7120H2527H7019H2779H3117H3915H7673
