Génesis 8
La Biblia de las Américas
Bajan las aguas
8 Y se acordó Dios(A) de Noé y de todas las bestias y de todo el ganado que estaban con él en el arca; y Dios hizo pasar un viento sobre la tierra y decrecieron las aguas(B). 2 Y se cerraron las fuentes del abismo y las compuertas[a] del cielo(C), y se detuvo la lluvia(D) del cielo. 3 Las aguas bajaron[b] gradualmente de sobre la tierra, y al cabo de ciento cincuenta días(E), las aguas habían decrecido. 4 Y en el mes séptimo, el día diecisiete del mes, el arca descansó sobre los montes(F) de Ararat. 5 Las aguas fueron decreciendo paulatinamente hasta el mes décimo; y el día primero del mes décimo, se vieron las cimas de los montes.
6 Y aconteció que al cabo de cuarenta días, Noé abrió la ventana del arca(G) que él había hecho, 7 y envió un cuervo, que estuvo yendo y viniendo[c] hasta que se secaron las aguas sobre[d] la tierra. 8 Después envió[e] una paloma para ver si las aguas habían disminuido sobre la superficie[f] de la tierra, 9 pero la paloma no encontró lugar donde posarse[g], de modo que volvió a él, al arca, porque las aguas estaban sobre la superficie[h] de toda la tierra. Entonces extendió su mano, la tomó y la metió consigo en el arca. 10 Esperó aún otros siete días, y volvió a enviar la paloma desde el arca. 11 Y hacia el[i] atardecer la paloma regresó[j] a él, y he aquí, en su pico[k] traía una hoja de olivo recién arrancada. Entonces Noé comprendió que las aguas habían disminuido sobre la tierra. 12 Esperó aún otros siete días, y envió la paloma(H), pero ya no volvió más a él.
Noé sale del arca
13 Y aconteció que en el año seiscientos uno de Noé(I), en el mes primero, el día primero del mes, se secaron las aguas sobre la tierra. Entonces Noé quitó la cubierta del arca y miró, y he aquí, estaba seca la superficie[l] de la tierra. 14 Y en el mes segundo, el día veintisiete del mes, estaba seca la tierra. 15 Entonces habló Dios a Noé, diciendo: 16 Sal del arca tú, y contigo tu mujer, tus hijos y las mujeres de tus hijos. 17 Saca contigo todo ser viviente de toda carne que está contigo: aves, ganados y todo reptil que se arrastra sobre la tierra, para que se reproduzcan en abundancia[m] sobre la tierra, y sean fecundos y se multipliquen sobre la tierra(J). 18 Salió, pues, Noé, y con él sus hijos y su mujer y las mujeres de sus hijos. 19 Y todas las bestias, todos los reptiles, todas las aves y todo lo que se mueve sobre la tierra, salieron del arca según sus familias.
20 Y edificó Noé un altar al Señor(K), y tomó de todo animal limpio y de toda ave limpia(L), y ofreció holocaustos(M) en el altar. 21 Y el Señor percibió el aroma agradable(N), y dijo el Señor para sí[n]: Nunca más volveré a maldecir la tierra por causa del hombre(O), porque la intención[o] del corazón del hombre es mala(P) desde su juventud; nunca más volveré a destruir[p] todo ser viviente(Q) como lo he hecho.
22 Mientras la tierra permanezca,
la siembra y la siega,
el frío y el calor,
el verano y el invierno(R),
el día y la noche(S),
nunca cesarán.

The Flood Ends
8 But God remembered Noah and all the ·wild [beasts] and ·tame animals [cattle] with him in the ·boat [ark]. He made a wind ·blow [pass] over the earth, and the water ·went down [subsided]. 2 The ·underground springs [L fountains/springs of the deep] stopped flowing, and the ·clouds [floodgates; L windows] in the ·sky [heavens] ·stopped pouring down rain [L were closed and the rain from the sky/heavens were restrained].
6 Forty days later Noah opened the ·window [hatch] he had made in the ·boat [ark], and 7 he sent out a raven. It ·flew [L went] here and there until the water had dried up from the earth. 8 Then Noah sent out a dove to find out if the water had ·dried up [subsided] from the ground. 9 The dove could not find a place to ·land [L set/rest its foot] because water still covered the earth, so it came back to the ·boat [ark]. Noah reached out his hand and took the bird and brought it back into the boat.
10 After [L waiting] seven days Noah again sent out the dove from the ·boat [ark], 11 and that evening it came back to him with a fresh olive leaf in its ·mouth [beak]. Then Noah knew that the ·ground was almost dry [L waters had subsided from the ground]. 12 ·Seven days later [L After waiting another seven days] he sent the dove out again, but this time it did not come back.
13 When Noah was six hundred and one years old, in the first day of the first month of that year, the water was dried up from the ·land [earth]. Noah removed the covering of the ·boat [ark] and saw that the ·land [L face of the ground] was dry. 14 By the twenty-seventh day of the second month the ·land [earth] was completely dry.
15 Then God said to Noah, 16 “You and your wife, your sons, and their wives should go out of the ·boat [ark]. 17 Bring every ·animal [L living thing of all flesh] out of the ·boat [ark] with you—the birds, ·animals [beasts; livestock], and everything that crawls on the earth. ·Let them have many young ones so that they might […so they may swarm on earth and be fruitful and] ·grow in number [multiply; 1:22].”
18 So Noah went out with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives. 19 Every ·animal [living thing], everything that ·crawls [creeps] on the earth, and every bird [L and everything that crawls/creeps] went out of the ·boat [ark] by families.
20 Then Noah built an altar [C a place to offer sacrifices] to the Lord. He took some of all the clean [C in a ritual sense] birds and ·animals [beasts; livestock], and he ·burned them on the altar as offerings to God [L offered a whole burnt offering on the altar; Lev. 1]. 21 The Lord ·was pleased with these sacrifices [L smelled the sweet savor/smell] and said ·to himself [L in his heart], “I will never again curse the ground because of human beings. ·Their thoughts [The inclination of their hearts] are evil even ·when [from the time] they are young, but I will never again destroy every living thing on the earth as I did this time.
22 “As long as the earth continues,
planting and harvest,
cold and hot,
summer and winter,
day and night
will not stop.”
Genesis 8
New International Version
8 But God remembered(A) Noah and all the wild animals and the livestock that were with him in the ark, and he sent a wind over the earth,(B) and the waters receded. 2 Now the springs of the deep and the floodgates of the heavens(C) had been closed, and the rain(D) had stopped falling from the sky. 3 The water receded steadily from the earth. At the end of the hundred and fifty days(E) the water had gone down, 4 and on the seventeenth day of the seventh month(F) the ark came to rest on the mountains(G) of Ararat.(H) 5 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.
6 After forty days(I) Noah opened a window he had made in the ark 7 and sent out a raven,(J) and it kept flying back and forth until the water had dried up from the earth.(K) 8 Then he sent out a dove(L) to see if the water had receded from the surface of the ground. 9 But the dove could find nowhere to perch because there was water over all the surface of the earth; so it returned to Noah in the ark. He reached out his hand and took the dove and brought it back to himself in the ark. 10 He waited seven more days and again sent out the dove from the ark. 11 When the dove returned to him in the evening, there in its beak was a freshly plucked olive leaf! Then Noah knew that the water had receded from the earth.(M) 12 He waited seven more days and sent the dove out again, but this time it did not return to him.
13 By the first day of the first month of Noah’s six hundred and first year,(N) the water had dried up from the earth. Noah then removed the covering from the ark and saw that the surface of the ground was dry. 14 By the twenty-seventh day of the second month(O) the earth was completely dry.
15 Then God said to Noah, 16 “Come out of the ark, you and your wife and your sons and their wives.(P) 17 Bring out every kind of living creature that is with you—the birds, the animals, and all the creatures that move along the ground—so they can multiply on the earth and be fruitful and increase in number on it.”(Q)
18 So Noah came out, together with his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives.(R) 19 All the animals and all the creatures that move along the ground and all the birds—everything that moves on land—came out of the ark, one kind after another.
20 Then Noah built an altar to the Lord(S) and, taking some of all the clean animals and clean(T) birds, he sacrificed burnt offerings(U) on it. 21 The Lord smelled the pleasing aroma(V) and said in his heart: “Never again will I curse the ground(W) because of humans, even though[a] every inclination of the human heart is evil from childhood.(X) And never again will I destroy(Y) all living creatures,(Z) as I have done.
