Genesis:8:1 @
And God remembered Noe ,
and all the living creatures ,
and all the cattle which were with him in the ark ,
and brought a wind upon the earth ,
and the waters were abated .
drb @
Genesis:8:2 @
The fountains also of the deep ,
and the flood gates of heaven were shut up ,
and the rain from heaven was restrained .
drb @
Genesis:8:3 @
And the waters returned from off the earth going and coming :
and they began to be abated after a hundred and fifty days .
drb @
Genesis:8:4 @
And the ark rested in the seventh month ,
the seven and twentieth day of the month ,
upon the mountains of Armenia .
drb @
Genesis:8:5 @
And the waters were going and decreasing until the tenth month :
for in the tenth month ,
the first day of the month ,
the tops of the mountains appeared .

Genesis:8:6 @
And after that forty days were passed ,
Noe ,
opening the window of the ark which he had made ,
sent forth a raven :
drb @
Genesis:8:7 @
Which went forth and did not return ,
till the waters were dried up upon the earth .
drb @
Genesis:8:8 @
He sent forth also a dove after him ,
to see if the waters had now ceased upon the face of the earth .
drb @
Genesis:8:9 @
But she ,
not finding where her foot might rest ,
returned to him into the ark :
for the waters were upon the whole earth :
and he put forth his hand ,
and caught her ,
and brought her into the ark .
drb @
Genesis:8:10 @
And having waited yet seven other days ,
he again sent forth the dove out of the ark .
drb @
Genesis:8:11 @
And she came to him in the evening ,
carrying a bough of an olive tree ,
with green leaves ,
in her mouth .
Noe therefore understood that the waters were ceased upon the earth .
drb @
Genesis:8:12 @
And he stayed yet other seven days :
and he sent forth the dove ,
which returned not any more unto him .
drb @
Genesis:8:13 @
Therefore in the six hundreth and first year ,
the first month ,
the first day of the month ,
the waters were lessened upon the earth ,
and Noe opening the covering of the ark ,
looked ,
and saw that the face of the earth was dried .
drb @
Genesis:8:14 @
In the second month ,
the seven and twentieth day of the month ,
the earth was dried .
drb @
Genesis:8:15 @
And God spoke to Noe ,
saying :
drb @
Genesis:8:16 @
Go out of the ark ,
thou and thy wife ,
thy sons ,
and the wives of thy sons with thee .
drb @
Genesis:8:17 @
All livings things that are with thee of all flesh ,
as well in fowls as in beasts ,
and all creeping things that creep upon the earth ,
bring out with thee ,
and go ye upon the earth :
increased and multiply upon it .
drb @
Genesis:8:18 @
So Noe went out ,
he and his sons :
his wife ,
and the wives of his sons with him
drb @
Genesis:8:19 @
And all living things ,
and cattle ,
and creeping things that creep upon the earth ,
according to their kinds ,
went out of the ark .
drb @
Genesis:8:20 @
And Noe built an altar unto the Lord :
and taking of all cattle and fowls that were clean ,
offered holocausts upon the altar .
drb @
Genesis:8:21 @
And the Lord smelled a sweet savour ,
and said :
I will no more curse the earth for the sake of man :
for the imagination and thought of man '
s heart are prone to evil from his youth :
therefore I will no more destroy every living soul as I have done .
drb @
Genesis:8:22 @
All the days of the earth ,
seedtime and harvest ,
cold and heat ,
summer and winter ,
night and day ,
shall not cease .
