Genesis 8:21-22
King James Version
21 And the Lord smelled a sweet savour; and the Lord said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.
22 While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.

21 Al percibir el Señor ese grato olor, dijo en su corazón:
«No volveré a maldecir la tierra por causa del hombre, porque desde su juventud las intenciones del corazón del hombre son malas. Y tampoco volveré a destruir a todo ser vivo, como lo he hecho. 22 Mientras la tierra permanezca, no faltarán la sementera y la siega, ni el frío y el calor, ni el verano y el invierno, ni el día y la noche.»
