1. God remembered Noah, as well as all the wildlife and all the livestock that were with him in the ark. God caused a wind to pass over the earth, and the water began to subside.
|
1. And God H430 remembered H2142 H853 Noah H5146 , and every H3605 living thing H2416 , and all H3605 the cattle H929 that H834 was with H854 him in the ark H8392 : and God H430 made a wind H7307 to pass H5674 over H5921 the earth H776 , and the waters H4325 assuaged H7918 ;
|
|
2. The sources of the watery depths and the floodgates of the sky were closed, and the rain from the sky stopped.
|
2. The fountains H4599 also of the deep H8415 and the windows H699 of heaven H8064 were stopped H5534 , and the rain H1653 from H4480 heaven H8064 was restrained H3607 ;
|
|
3. The water steadily receded from the earth, and by the end of 150 days the waters had decreased significantly.
|
3. And the waters H4325 returned H7725 from off H4480 H5921 the earth H776 continually H1980 H7725 : and after the end H4480 H7097 of the hundred H3967 and fifty H2572 days H3117 the waters H4325 were abated H2637 .
|
|
4. The ark came to rest in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat.
|
4. And the ark H8392 rested H5117 in the seventh H7637 month H2320 , on the seventeenth H7651 H6240 day H3117 of the month H2320 , upon H5921 the mountains H2022 of Ararat H780 .
|
|
5. The waters continued to recede until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were visible.
|
5. And the waters H4325 decreased H2637 continually H1961 H1980 until H5704 the tenth H6224 month H2320 : in the tenth H6224 month , on the first H259 day of the month H2320 , were the tops H7218 of the mountains H2022 seen H7200 .
|
|
6. After 40 days Noah opened the window of the ark that he had made,
|
6. And it came to pass H1961 at the end H4480 H7093 of forty H705 days H3117 , that Noah H5146 opened H6605 H853 the window H2474 of the ark H8392 which H834 he had made H6213 :
|
|
7. and he sent out a raven. It went back and forth until the waters had dried up from the earth.
|
7. And he sent forth H7971 H853 a raven H6158 , which went forth H3318 to and fro H3318 H7725 , until H5704 the waters H4325 were dried up H3001 from off H4480 H5921 the earth H776 .
|
|
8. Then he sent out a dove to see whether the water on the earth's surface had gone down,
|
8. Also he sent forth H7971 H853 a dove H3123 from H4480 H854 him , to see H7200 if the waters H4325 were abated H7043 from off H4480 H5921 the face H6440 of the ground H127 ;
|
|
9. but the dove found no resting place for her foot. She returned to him in the ark because water covered the surface of the whole earth. He reached out and brought her into the ark to himself.
|
9. But the dove H3123 found H4672 no H3808 rest H4494 for the sole H3709 of her foot H7272 , and she returned H7725 unto H413 him into H413 the ark H8392 , for H3588 the waters H4325 were on H5921 the face H6440 of the whole H3605 earth H776 : then he put forth H7971 his hand H3027 , and took H3947 her , and pulled her in H935 H853 unto H413 him into H413 the ark H8392 .
|
|
10. So Noah waited seven more days and sent out the dove from the ark again.
|
10. And he stayed H2342 yet H5750 other H312 seven H7651 days H3117 ; and again H3254 he sent forth H7971 H853 the dove H3123 out of H4480 the ark H8392 ;
|
|
11. When the dove came to him at evening, there was a plucked olive leaf in her beak. So Noah knew that the water on the earth's surface had gone down.
|
11. And the dove H3123 came in H935 to H413 him in H6256 the evening H6153 ; and, lo H2009 , in her mouth H6310 was an olive H2132 leaf H5929 plucked off H2965 : so Noah H5146 knew H3045 that H3588 the waters H4325 were abated H7043 from off H4480 H5921 the earth H776 .
|
|
12. After he had waited another seven days, he sent out the dove, but she did not return to him again.
|
12. And he stayed H3176 yet H5750 other H312 seven H7651 days H3117 ; and sent forth H7971 H853 the dove H3123 ; which returned H7725 not H3808 again H3254 unto H413 him any more H5750 .
|
|
13. In the six hundred and first year, in the first month, on the first day of the month, the water that had covered the earth was dried up. Then Noah removed the ark's cover and saw that the surface of the ground was drying.
|
13. And it came to pass H1961 in the six H8337 hundredth H3967 and first H259 year H8141 , in the first H7223 month , the first H259 day of the month H2320 , the waters H4325 were dried up H2717 from off H4480 H5921 the earth H776 : and Noah H5146 removed H5493 H853 the covering H4372 of the ark H8392 , and looked H7200 , and, behold H2009 , the face H6440 of the ground H127 was dry H2717 .
|
|
14. By the twenty-seventh day of the second month, the earth was dry.
|
14. And in the second H8145 month H2320 , on the seven H7651 and twentieth H6242 day H3117 of the month H2320 , was the earth H776 dried H3001 .
|
|
15. Then God spoke to Noah,
|
15. And God H430 spoke H1696 unto H413 Noah H5146 , saying H559 ,
|
|
16. "Come out of the ark, you, your wife, your sons, and your sons' wives with you.
|
16. Go forth H3318 of H4480 the ark H8392 , thou H859 , and thy wife H802 , and thy sons H1121 , and thy sons H1121 ' wives H802 with H854 thee.
|
|
17. Bring out every living thing of all flesh that is with you-- birds, livestock, creatures that crawl on the ground-- and they will spread over the earth and be fruitful and multiply on the earth."
|
17. Bring forth H3318 with H854 thee every H3605 living thing H2416 that H834 is with H854 thee , of all H4480 H3605 flesh H1320 , both of fowl H5775 , and of cattle H929 , and of every H3605 creeping thing H7431 that creepeth H7430 upon H5921 the earth H776 ; that they may breed abundantly H8317 in the earth H776 , and be fruitful H6509 , and multiply H7235 upon H5921 the earth H776 .
|
|
18. So Noah, along with his sons, his wife, and his sons' wives, came out.
|
18. And Noah H5146 went forth H3318 , and his sons H1121 , and his wife H802 , and his sons H1121 ' wives H802 with H854 him:
|
|
19. All wildlife, all livestock, every bird, and every creature that crawls on the earth came out of the ark by their groups.
|
19. Every H3605 beast H2416 , every H3605 creeping thing H7431 , and every H3605 fowl H5775 , and whatsoever H3605 creepeth H7430 upon H5921 the earth H776 , after their kinds H4940 , went forth H3318 out of H4480 the ark H8392 .
|
|
20. Then Noah built an altar to the LORD. He took some of every kind of clean animal and every kind of clean bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
|
20. And Noah H5146 built H1129 an altar H4196 unto the LORD H3068 ; and took H3947 of every H4480 H3605 clean H2889 beast H929 , and of every H4480 H3605 clean H2889 fowl H5775 , and offered H5927 burnt offerings H5930 on the altar H4196 .
|
|
21. When the LORD smelled the pleasing aroma, He said to Himself, "I will never again curse the ground because of man, even though man's inclination is evil from his youth. And I will never again strike down every living thing as I have done.
|
21. And the LORD H3068 smelled H7306 a sweet H5207 H853 savor H7381 ; and the LORD H3068 said H559 in H413 his heart H3820 , I will not H3808 again H3254 curse H7043 H853 the ground H127 any more H5750 for man's sake H5668 H120 ; for H3588 the imagination H3336 of man H120 's heart H3820 is evil H7451 from his youth H4480 H5271 ; neither H3808 will I again H3254 smite H5221 any more H5750 H853 every thing H3605 living H2416 , as H834 I have done H6213 .
|
|
22. As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, and day and night will not cease."
|
22. While H5750 the earth H776 remaineth H3605 H3117 , seedtime H2233 and harvest H7105 , and cold H7120 and heat H2527 , and summer H7019 and winter H2779 , and day H3117 and night H3915 shall not H3808 cease H7673 .
