Genesis 8:21-22

21The Lord 1smelled the soothing aroma; and the Lord said 2to Himself, “I will never again 3curse the ground on account of man, for 4the 5intent of man’s heart is evil from his youth; 6and I will never again 7destroy every living thing, as I have done.22While the earth remains, Seedtime and harvest, And cold and heat, And 8summer and winter, And 9day and night Shall not cease.”
