MLV(i)
1 And God remembered Noah and all the beasts and all the cattle that were with him in the ark. And God made a wind to pass over the earth and the waters subsided.
2 Also the fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped and the rain from heaven was restrained.
3 And the waters returned from the earth, going and returning. And after the end of a hundred and fifty days the waters decreased.
4 And the ark rested upon the mountains of Ararat in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month. 5 And the waters decreased, going and returning until the tenth month. In the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.
6 And it happened at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made. 7 And he sent out a raven. And it went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from the earth. 8 And he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters had abated from the face of the ground. 9 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot. And she returned to him to the ark, because the waters were on the face of the whole earth. And he put out his hand and took her and brought her in, to him and into the ark.
10 And he stayed yet another seven days and again he sent out the dove out of the ark. 11 And the dove came in, in the evening to him. And behold, in her mouth an olive leaf plucked off, so Noah knew that the waters were abated from the earth.
12 And he stayed yet seven other days and sent forth the dove. And she did not return again to him any more. 13 And it happened in the six hundred and first year, in the first month of the year and the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from the earth. And Noah removed the covering of the ark and looked. And behold, the face of the ground was nearly dried. 14 And the earth was dry in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month.
15 And God spoke to Noah, saying, 16 Go forth from the ark, you and your wife and your sons and your sons' wives with you. 17 Bring forth with you every living thing that is with you, of all flesh, both birds and cattle and every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth, that they may breed abundantly on the earth and be fruitful and multiply upon the earth.
18 And Noah went forth and his sons and his wife and his sons' wives with him. 19 Every beast, every creeping thing and every bird, whatever moves upon the earth, according to their families, went forth out of the ark.
20 And Noah built an altar to Jehovah and took of every clean beast and of every clean bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar. 21 And Jehovah smelled the sweet aroma. And Jehovah said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for the sake of man, because the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth. I will not again kill* everything living, as I have done. 22 While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest and cold and heat and summer and winter and day and night will not cease.
