But God remembered Noah - and all the animals and - livestock that were with him in the ark. And God sent a wind ... over the earth , and the waters began to subside.
| LXX |
The springs of the deep and the floodgates of the heavens were closed , and the rain from the sky was restrained.
| LXX |
The waters receded steadily ... from the earth , and after 150 ... days the waters had gone down.
| LXX |
On the seventeenth ... day - of the seventh month , the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.
| LXX |
And the waters ... continued to recede until the tenth month , (and) on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains became visible.
| LXX |
- After forty days Noah - opened the window - he had made in the ark
| LXX |
and sent out - a raven. It kept flying back and forth ... ... until the waters had dried up from the earth.
| LXX |
Then (Noah) sent out - - a dove to see if the waters had receded from the surface of the ground.
| LXX |
But the dove found no place to rest her foot ... , and she returned to him in the ark , because the waters (were still) covering the surface of all the earth. So he reached out his hand ... and brought her back inside the ark.
| LXX |
(Noah) waited ... seven more days and again sent out - the dove from the ark.
| LXX |
And behold , the dove returned to him in the evening ... with a freshly plucked olive leaf in her beak. So Noah knew that the waters had receded from the earth.
| LXX |
(And) Noah waited ... seven more days and sent out - the dove {again} , but this time ... ... she did not return to him.
| LXX |
- In (Noah’s) six hundred and first year , on the first day of the first month , the waters had dried up from the earth. So Noah - removed the covering from the ark and saw ... that the surface of the ground was dry.
| LXX |
By the twenty-seventh ... day ... of the second month , the earth was fully dry.
| LXX |
| LXX |
“ Come out of the ark , you and your wife , along with your sons and (their) wives.
| LXX |
Bring out ... all the living creatures ... ... that are with you — birds , livestock , and everything - that crawls upon the ground — so that they can spread out over the earth and be fruitful and multiply upon (it). ”
| LXX |
So Noah came out , along with his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives.
| LXX |
Every living creature , every creeping thing , and every bird — everything that moves upon the earth — came out of the ark , kind by kind.
| LXX |
Then Noah built an altar to the LORD. And taking from every kind of clean animal and clean bird , he offered burnt offerings on the altar.
| LXX |
When the LORD - smelled the pleasing aroma , He said in His heart , “ Never again ... ... - will I curse the ground because of man , even though every inclination of (his) heart is evil from his youth. And never again ... will I destroy - all living creatures as I have done.
| LXX |
As long as ... the earth endures , seedtime and harvest , cold and heat , summer and winter , day and night shall never cease. ”
