Revised Version 1895
1And GodH430 rememberedH2142 NoahH5146, and everyH3605 livingH2416 thingH3605, and allH3605 the cattleH929 that were with him in the arkH8392: and GodH430 madeH3605 a windH7307 to passH5674 over the earthH776, and the watersH4325 assuaged; 2the fountainsH4599 also of the deepH8415 and the windowsH699 of heavenH8064 were stoppedH3607, and the rainH1653 from heavenH8064 was restrainedH3607; 3and the watersH4325 returnedH7725 from offH5921 the earthH776 continuallyH1980: and afterH5921 the endH7097 of an hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 daysH3117 the watersH4325 decreasedH2637. 4And the arkH8392 restedH5117 in the seventhH7637 monthH2320, on the seventeenth dayH3117 of the monthH2320, uponH5921 the mountainsH2022 of AraratH780. 5And the watersH4325 decreasedH2637 continuallyH1980 untilH5704 the tenthH6224 monthH2320: in the tenthH6224 monthH2320, on the firstH259 dayH2320 of the monthH2320, were the topsH7218 of the mountainsH2022 seenH7200. 6And it cameH1961 to passH1961 at the endH7093 of fortyH705 daysH3117, that NoahH5146 openedH6605 the windowH2474 of the arkH8392 whichH834 he had madeH6213: 7and he sentH7971 forthH3318 a ravenH6158, and it wentH3318 forthH3318 to and froH7725, untilH5704 the watersH4325 were driedH3001 upH3001 from offH5921 the earthH776. 8And he sentH7971 forthH7971 a doveH3123 from him, to seeH7200 ifH7043 the watersH4325 were abatedH7043 from offH5921 the faceH6440 of the groundH127; 9but the doveH3123 foundH4672 noH3808 restH4494 for the soleH3709 of herH3605 footH7272, and sheH3588 returnedH7725 unto him to the arkH8392, for the watersH4325 were on the faceH6440 of the wholeH3605 earthH776: and he putH7971 forthH7971 his handH3027, and tookH3947 herH3605, and broughtH935 herH3605 in unto him intoH413 the arkH8392. 10And he stayedH5750 yet otherH312 sevenH7651 daysH3117; and againH5750 he sentH7971 forthH7971 the doveH3123 outH4480 of the arkH8392; 11and the doveH3123 cameH935 in to him at eventide; and, loH2009, in herH413 mouthH6310 an oliveH2132 leafH5929 pluckt offH5921: soH935 NoahH5146 knewH3045 that the watersH4325 were abatedH7043 from offH5921 the earthH776. 12And he stayedH5750 yet otherH312 sevenH7651 daysH3117; and sentH7971 forthH7971 the doveH3123; and sheH3808 returnedH7725 notH3808 againH5750 unto him anyH5750 moreH5750. 13And it cameH1961 to passH1961 in the sixH8337 hundredH3967 and firstH7223 yearH8141, in the firstH7223 monthH2320, the firstH7223 dayH2320 of the monthH2320, the watersH4325 were dried upH7200 from offH5921 the earthH776: and NoahH5146 removedH5493 the coveringH4372 of the arkH8392, and lookedH7200, and, beholdH2009, the faceH6440 of the groundH776 was dried. 14And in the secondH8145 monthH2320, on the sevenH7651 and twentiethH6242 dayH3117 of the monthH2320, was the earthH776 dryH3001. 15And GodH430 spake unto NoahH5146, sayingH559, 16GoH3318 forthH3318 of the arkH8392, thou, and thy wifeH802, and thy sonsH1121, and thy sons’H1121 wivesH802 with thee. 17BringH3318 forthH3318 with thee everyH3605 livingH2416 thingH7431 that is with thee of allH3605 fleshH1320, bothH3605 fowlH5775, and cattleH929, and everyH3605 creepingH7431 thingH7431 that creepeth uponH5921 the earthH776; that they may breedH8317 abundantlyH8317 in the earthH776, and be fruitfulH6509, and multiplyH7235 uponH5921 the earthH776. 18And NoahH5146 wentH3318 forthH3318, and his sonsH1121, and his wifeH802, and his sons’H1121 wivesH802 with him: 19everyH3605 beastH2416, everyH3605 creepingH7431 thingH7431, and everyH3605 fowlH5775, whatsoeverH3605 moveth uponH5921 the earthH776, afterH4480 their familiesH4940, wentH3318 forthH3318 outH3318 of the arkH8392. 20And NoahH5146 builded an altarH4196 unto the LORDH3068; and tookH3947 of everyH3605 cleanH2889 beastH929, and of everyH3605 cleanH2889 fowlH5775, and offeredH5927 burntH5930 offeringsH3068 on the altarH4196. 21And the LORDH3068 smelledH7306 the sweet savour; and the LORDH3068 saidH559 in his heartH3820, I will notH3808 againH5750 curseH7043 the groundH127 anyH3605 moreH5750 for man’sH120 sakeH5668, for that the imaginationH3820 of man’sH120 heartH3820 is evilH7451 from his youthH5271; neitherH3808 will I againH5750 smiteH5221 anyH3605 moreH5750 everyH3605 thingH7043 livingH2416, as I have doneH6213. 22WhileH5750 the earthH776 remaineth, seedtimeH2233 and harvestH7105, and coldH7120 and heatH2527, and summerH7019 and winterH2779, and dayH3117 and nightH3915 shall notH3808 ceaseH7673.
