8:1 And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all
the cattle that [was] with him in the ark: and God made a wind
to pass over the earth, and the waters asswaged;
8:2 The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven
were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained;
8:3 And the waters returned from off the earth continually:
and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were
abated.
8:4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the
seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
8:5 And the waters decreased continually until the tenth
month: in the tenth [month], on the first [day] of the month,
were the tops of the mountains seen.
8:6 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah
opened the window of the ark which he had made:
8:7 And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro,
until the waters were dried up from off the earth.
8:8 Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters
were abated from off the face of the ground;
8:9 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and
she returned unto him into the ark, for the waters [were] on
the face of the whole earth: then he put forth his hand, and
took her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark.
8:10 And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent
forth the dove out of the ark;
8:11 And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in
her mouth [was] an olive leaf plucked off: so Noah knew that
the waters were abated from off the earth.
8:12 And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the
dove; which returned not again unto him any more.
8:13 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year,
in the first [month], the first [day] of the month, the waters
were dried up from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering
of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was
dry.
8:14 And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day
of the month, was the earth dried.
8:15 And God spake unto Noah, saying,
8:16 Go forth of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons,
and thy sons' wives with thee.
8:17 Bring forth with thee every living thing that [is] with
thee, of all flesh, [both] of fowl, and of cattle, and of every
creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth; that they may
breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply
upon the earth.
8:18 And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his
sons' wives with him:
8:19 Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, [and]
whatsoever creepeth upon the earth, after their kinds, went
forth out of the ark.
8:20 And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of
every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt
offerings on the altar.
8:21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said
in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for
man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart [is] evil from
his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing
living, as I have done.
8:22 While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and
cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall
not cease.
