Genesis 8
1 And God kept Noah in mind, and all the living things and the cattle which were with him in the ark: and God sent a wind over the earth, and the waters went down.
recordatus autem Deus Noe cunctarumque animantium et omnium iumentorum quae erant cum eo in arca adduxit spiritum super terram et inminutae sunt aquae
2 And the fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were shut, and the rain from heaven was stopped.
et clausi sunt fontes abyssi et cataractae caeli et prohibitae sunt pluviae de caelo
3 And the waters went slowly back from the earth, and at the end of a hundred and fifty days the waters were lower.
reversaeque aquae de terra euntes et redeuntes et coeperunt minui post centum quinquaginta dies
4 And on the seventeenth day of the seventh month the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.
requievitque arca mense septimo vicesima septima die mensis super montes Armeniae
5 And still the waters went on falling, till on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains were seen.
at vero aquae ibant et decrescebant usque ad decimum mensem decimo enim mense prima die mensis apparuerunt cacumina montium
6 Then, after forty days, through the open window of the ark which he had made,
cumque transissent quadraginta dies aperiens Noe fenestram arcae quam fecerat dimisit corvum
7 Noah sent out a raven, which went this way and that till the waters were gone from the earth.
qui egrediebatur et revertebatur donec siccarentur aquae super terram
8 And he sent out a dove, to see if the waters had gone from the face of the earth;
emisit quoque columbam post eum ut videret si iam cessassent aquae super faciem terrae
9 But the dove saw no resting-place for her foot, and came back to the ark, for the waters were still over all the earth; and he put out his hand, and took her into the ark.
quae cum non invenisset ubi requiesceret pes eius reversa est ad eum in arcam aquae enim erant super universam terram extenditque manum et adprehensam intulit in arcam
10 And after waiting another seven days, he sent the dove out again;
expectatis autem ultra septem diebus aliis rursum dimisit columbam ex arca
11 And the dove came back at evening, and in her mouth was an olive-leaf broken off: so Noah was certain that the waters had gone down on the earth.
at illa venit ad eum ad vesperam portans ramum olivae virentibus foliis in ore suo intellexit ergo Noe quod cessassent aquae super terram
12 And after seven days more, he sent the dove out again, but she did not come back to him.
expectavitque nihilominus septem alios dies et emisit columbam quae non est reversa ultra ad eum
13 And in the six hundred and first year, on the first day of the first month, the waters were dry on the earth: and Noah took the cover off the ark and saw that the face of the earth was dry.
igitur sescentesimo primo anno primo mense prima die mensis inminutae sunt aquae super terram et aperiens Noe tectum arcae aspexit viditque quod exsiccata esset superficies terrae
14 And on the twenty-seventh day of the second month the earth was dry.
mense secundo septima et vicesima die mensis arefacta est terra
15 And God said to Noah,
locutus est autem Deus ad Noe dicens
16 Go out of the ark, you and your wife and your sons and your sons' wives.
egredere de arca tu et uxor tua filii tui et uxores filiorum tuorum tecum
17 Take out with you every living thing which is with you, birds and cattle and everything which goes on the earth, so that they may have offspring and be fertile and be increased on the earth.
cuncta animantia quae sunt apud te ex omni carne tam in volatilibus quam in bestiis et in universis reptilibus quae reptant super terram educ tecum et ingredimini super terram crescite et multiplicamini super eam
18 And Noah went out with his sons and his wife and his sons' wives;
egressus est ergo Noe et filii eius uxor illius et uxores filiorum eius cum eo
19 And every beast and bird and every living thing of every sort which goes on the earth, went out of the ark.
sed et omnia animantia iumenta et reptilia quae repunt super terram secundum genus suum arcam egressa sunt
20 And Noah made an altar to the Lord, and from every clean beast and bird he made burned offerings on the altar.
aedificavit autem Noe altare Domino et tollens de cunctis pecoribus et volucribus mundis obtulit holocausta super altare
21 And when the sweet smell came up to the Lord, he said in his heart, I will not again put a curse on the earth because of man, for the thoughts of man's heart are evil from his earliest days; never again will I send destruction on all living things as I have done.
odoratusque est Dominus odorem suavitatis et ait ad eum nequaquam ultra maledicam terrae propter homines sensus enim et cogitatio humani cordis in malum prona sunt ab adulescentia sua non igitur ultra percutiam omnem animantem sicut feci
22 While the earth goes on, seed time and the getting in of the grain, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, will not come to an end.
cunctis diebus terrae sementis et messis frigus et aestus aestas et hiemps nox et dies non requiescent
A Dove is Sent Forth from the Ark
