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.

And for your blood, which is your life, will I take payment; from every beast I will take it, and from every man will I take payment for the blood of his brother-man.

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.

And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father unclothed, and gave news of it to his two brothers outside.

And he took of the wine of it and was overcome by drink; and he was uncovered in his tent.

These three were the sons of Noah and from them all the earth was peopled.

Truly, I will make my agreement with you and with your seed after you,

And on the twenty-seventh day of the second month the earth was dry.

And whenever I make a cloud come over the earth, the bow will be seen in the cloud,

And the fear of you will be strong in every beast of the earth and every bird of the air; everything which goes on the land, and all the fishes of the sea, are given into your hands.

And the bow will be in the cloud, and looking on it, I will keep in mind the eternal agreement between God and every living thing on the earth.

And God said, This is the sign of the agreement which I make between me and you and every living thing with you, for all future generations:

And after waiting another seven days, he sent the dove out again;

Then, after forty days, through the open window of the ark which he had made,

Noah sent out a raven, which went this way and that till the waters were gone from the earth.

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.

And on the seventeenth day of the seventh month the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.

And still the waters went on falling, till on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains were seen.

And the fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were shut, and the rain from heaven was stopped.

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.

And the waters went slowly back from the earth, and at the end of a hundred and fifty days the waters were lower.

And the Lord had sorrow because he had made man on the earth, and grief was in his heart.

The waters went fifteen cubits higher, till all the mountains were covered.

In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, all the fountains of the great deep came bursting through, and the windows of heaven were open;
