8:1 But
God
remembered
Noah
and
all
the
beasts
and
all
the
livestock
that
were
with
him
in
the
ark.
And
God
made
a
wind
blow
over
the
earth,
and
the
waters
subsided.
8:2 The
fountains
of
the
deep
and
the
windows
of
the
heavens
were
closed,
the
rain
from
the
heavens
was
restrained,
8:3 and
the
waters
receded
from
the
earth
continually.
At
the
end
of
150
days
the
waters
had
abated,
8:4 and
in
the
seventh
month,
on
the
seventeenth
day
of
the
month,
the
ark
came
to
rest
on
the
mountains
of
Ararat.
8:5 And
the
waters
continued
to
abate
until
the
tenth
month;
in
the
tenth
month,
on
the
first
day
of
the
month,
the
tops
of
the
mountains
were
seen.
8:6 At
the
end
of
forty
days
Noah
opened
the
window
of
the
ark
that
he
had
made
8:7 and
sent
forth
a
raven.
It
went
to
and
fro
until
the
waters
were
dried
up
from
the
earth.
8:8 Then
he
sent
forth
a
dove
from
him,
to
see
if
the
waters
had
subsided
from
the
face
of
the
ground.
8:9 But
the
dove
found
no
place
to
set
her
foot,
and
she
returned
to
him
to
the
ark,
for
the
waters
were
still
on
the
face
of
the
whole
earth.
So
he
put
out
his
hand
and
took
her
and
brought
her
into
the
ark
with
him.
8:10 He
waited
another
seven
days,
and
again
he
sent
forth
the
dove
out
of
the
ark.
8:11 And
the
dove
came
back
to
him
in
the
evening,
and
behold,
in
her
mouth
was
a
freshly
plucked
olive
leaf.
So
Noah
knew
that
the
waters
had
subsided
from
the
earth.
8:12 Then
he
waited
another
seven
days
and
sent
forth
the
dove,
and
she
did
not
return
to
him
anymore.
8:13 In
the
six
hundred
and
first
year,
in
the
first
month,
the
first
day
of
the
month,
the
waters
were
dried
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 In
the
second
month,
on
the
twenty-seventh
day
of
the
month,
the
earth
had
dried
out.
8:15 Then
God
said
to
Noah,
8:16 "Go
out
from
the
ark,
you
and
your
wife,
and
your
sons
and
your
sons'
wives
with
you.
8:17 Bring
out
with
you
every
living
thing
that
is
with
you
of
all
flesh--birds
and
animals
and
every
creeping
thing
that
creeps
on
the
earth--that
they
may
swarm
on
the
earth,
and
be
fruitful
and
multiply
on
the
earth."
8:18 So
Noah
went
out,
and
his
sons
and
his
wife
and
his
sons'
wives
with
him.
8:19 Every
beast,
every
creeping
thing,
and
every
bird,
everything
that
moves
on
the
earth,
went
out
by
families
from
the
ark.
8:20 Then
Noah
built
an
altar
to
the
LORD
and
took
some
of
every
clean
animal
and
some
of
every
clean
bird
and
offered
burnt
offerings
on
the
altar.
8:21 And
when
the
LORD
smelled
the
pleasing
aroma,
the
LORD
said
in
his
heart,
"I
will
never
again
curse
the
ground
because
of
man,
for
the
intention
of
man's
heart
is
evil
from
his
youth.
Neither
will
I
ever
again
strike
down
every
living
creature
as
I
have
done.
8:22 While
the
earth
remains,
seedtime
and
harvest,
cold
and
heat,
summer
and
winter,
day
and
night,
shall
not
cease."
