Genesis 8:15-22

15And God spoke to Noah, saying,

16“Go out of the ark, you and your wife and your sons and their wives with you.

17Bring out with you every living thing from all flesh—birds and animals and every crawling thing that crawls on the earth—that they may breed abundantly on the earth, and be fruitful and multiply on the earth.”

18So Noah went out, and his wife and his sons and their wives with him [after being in the ark one year and ten days].

19Every animal, every crawling thing, every bird—and whatever moves on the land—went out by families (types, groupings) from the ark.

20And Noah built an altar to the Lord, and took of every [ceremonially] clean animal and of every clean bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar.

21The Lord smelled the pleasing aroma [a soothing, satisfying scent] and the Lord said to Himself, “I will never again curse the ground because of man, for the intent (strong inclination, desire) of man’s heart is wicked from his youth; and I will never again destroy every living thing, as I have done.

22While the earth remains, Seedtime and harvest, Cold and heat, Winter and summer, And day and night Shall not cease.”
