Genesis 8
King James Version
8 And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that was with him in the ark: and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters assuaged;
2 The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained;
3 And the waters returned from off the earth continually: and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were abated.
4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
5 And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.
6 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made:
7 And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.
8 Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground;
9 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him into the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth: then he put forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark.
10 And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark;
11 And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was an olive leaf pluckt off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.
12 And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; which returned not again unto him any more.
13 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry.
14 And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth dried.
15 And God spake unto Noah, saying,
16 Go forth of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee.
17 Bring forth with thee every living thing that is with thee, of all flesh, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth; that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth.
18 And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him:
19 Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, and whatsoever creepeth upon the earth, after their kinds, went forth out of the ark.
20 And Noah builded an altar unto the Lord; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
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.

English Standard Version
The Flood Subsides
8 But God (A)remembered Noah and all the beasts and all the livestock that were with him in the ark. And (B)God made a wind blow over the earth, and the waters subsided. 2 (C)The fountains of the deep and (D)the windows of the heavens were closed, the rain from the heavens was restrained, 3 and the waters receded from the earth continually. At the end (E)of 150 days the waters had abated, 4 and in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ark came to rest on the mountains of (F)Ararat. 5 And the waters continued to abate until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.
6 At the end of forty days Noah opened the window of the ark that he had made 7 and sent forth a raven. It went to and fro until the waters were dried up from the earth. 8 Then he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters had subsided from the face of the ground. 9 But the dove found no place to set her foot, and she returned to him to the ark, for the waters were still on the face of the whole earth. So he put out his hand and took her and brought her into the ark with him. 10 He waited another seven days, and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark. 11 And the dove came back to him in the evening, and behold, in her mouth was a freshly plucked olive leaf. So Noah knew that the waters had subsided from the earth. 12 Then he waited another seven days and sent forth the dove, and she did not return to him anymore.
13 In the six hundred and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried from off the earth. And Noah removed the covering of the ark and looked, and behold, the face of the ground was dry. 14 In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth had dried out. 15 Then God said to Noah, 16 “Go out from the ark, (G)you and your wife, and your sons and your sons' wives with you. 17 Bring out with you every living thing that is with you of all flesh—birds and animals and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth—that they may swarm on the earth, and (H)be fruitful and multiply on the earth.” 18 So Noah went out, and his sons and his wife and his sons' wives with him. 19 Every beast, every creeping thing, and every bird, everything that moves on the earth, went out by families from the ark.
God's Covenant with Noah
20 Then Noah built an altar to the Lord and took some of every clean animal and some of every clean bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar. 21 And when the Lord smelled (I)the pleasing aroma, the Lord said in his heart, “I will never again (J)curse[a] the ground because of man, for (K)the intention of man's heart is evil from his youth. (L)Neither will I ever again strike down every living creature as I have done. 22 (M)While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, (N)day and night, shall not cease.”

Ang Biblia (1978)
Pagliit ng tubig.
8 At (A)naalaala ng Dios si Noe, at ang lahat ng may buhay, at ang lahat ng hayop na kasama niya sa sasakyan: (B)at nagpahihip ang Dios ng isang hangin sa ibabaw ng lupa, at humupa ang tubig;
2 (C)Natakpan din ang mga bukal ng kalaliman at ang mga dungawan ng langit, at napigil ang ulan sa langit;
3 At humupang patuloy ang tubig sa lupa; at kumati ang tubig pagkaraan ng isang (D)daan at limang pung araw.
4 At sumadsad ang sasakyan nang ikapitong buwan, nang ikalabing pitong araw ng buwan, sa ibabaw ng mga bundok ng (E)Ararat.
5 At ang tubig ay nagpatuloy ng paghupa hanggang sa ikasangpung buwan: nang ikasangpung buwan, nang unang araw ng buwan, ay nakita ang mga taluktok ng mga bundok.
Ang uwak at ang kalapati.
6 At nangyari, pagkaraan ng apat na pung araw, na binuksan ni (F)Noe ang dungawan ng sasakyan na kaniyang ginawa:
7 At siya'y nagpalipad ng isang uwak, at ito'y nagparoo't parito hanggang sa natuyo ang tubig sa lupa.
8 At nagpalipad siya ng isang kalapati, upang tingnan kung humupa na ang tubig sa ibabaw ng lupa.
9 Datapuwa't hindi nakasumpong ang kalapati ng madapuan ng talampakan ng kaniyang paa, at nagbalik sa kaniya sa sasakyan, sapagka't ang tubig ay nangasa ibabaw pa ng buong lupa: at iniunat ang kaniyang kamay at hinawakan, at ipinasok niya sa sasakyan.
10 At naghintay pa ng muling pitong araw; at muling pinalipad ang kalapati sa labas ng sasakyan;
11 At ang kalapati ay nagbalik sa kaniya ng dakong hapon; at, narito't may dalang isang dahong sariwa ng olivo sa tuka: sa gayon ay naunawa ni Noe na humupa na ang tubig sa lupa.
12 At naghintay pang muli siya ng pitong araw; at pinalipad ang kalapati; at hindi na muling nagbalik pa sa kaniya.
13 At nangyari, nang taong ikaanim na raan at isa, nang unang buwan, nang unang araw ng buwan, ay natuyo ang tubig sa ibabaw ng lupa: at inalis ni Noe ang takip ng sasakyan at tumanaw siya, at, narito't ang ibabaw ng lupa ay tuyo.
14 At nang ikalawang buwan nang ikadalawang pu't pitong araw ng buwan, ay natuyo ang lupa.
15 At nagsalita ang Dios kay Noe, na sinasabi,
16 Lumunsad ka sa sasakyan, (G)ikaw at ang iyong asawa, at ang iyong mga anak, at ang mga asawa ng iyong mga anak na kasama mo.
17 Ilabas mong kasama mo ang bawa't may buhay na kasama mo sa lahat ng laman, ang mga ibon, at ang mga hayop, at ang bawa't nagsisiusad na umuusad sa ibabaw ng lupa; upang magsipanganak ng sagana sa lupa, at (H)magpalaanakin, at mangagsidami sa ibabaw ng lupa.
18 At lumunsad si Noe, at ang kaniyang mga anak, at ang kaniyang asawa, at ang mga asawa ng kaniyang mga anak na kasama niya:
19 Ang bawa't hayop, bawa't umuusad, at bawa't ibon, anomang gumagalaw sa ibabaw ng lupa ayon sa kanikaniyang angkan ay nangagsilunsad sa sasakyan.
Naghandog si Noe.
20 At ipinagtayo ni Noe ng isang dambana ang Panginoon; at kumuha sa lahat na malinis na hayop, at sa lahat na malinis na ibon, at nagalay ng mga handog na susunugin sa ibabaw ng dambana.
21 At sinamyo ng Panginoon ang masarap na (I)amoy; at nagsabi ang Panginoon sa sarili, (J)Hindi ko na muling susumpain ang lupa, dahil sa tao, sapagka't ang (K)haka ng puso ng tao ay masama mula sa kaniyang pagkabata; (L)ni hindi ko na muling lilipulin pa ang lahat na nabubuhay na gaya ng aking ginawa.
22 Samantalang ang lupa ay lumalagi, ay hindi maglilikat ang paghahasik at pagaani, at ang lamig at init, at ang tagaraw at taginaw, (M)at ang araw at gabi.
