Genesis. Noe.
Douay-Rheims translation
7:17 And the flood was forty days upon the earth, and the waters increased,
and lifted up the ark on high from earth.
7:18 For they overflowed exceedingly: and filled all on the face of the earth:
and the ark was carried upon the waters.
[...]
7:22 And all things wherein there is the breath of life on the earth, died.
7:23 And he destroyed all the substance that was upon the earth, from man
to beast, and the creeping things and fowls of the air: and they were destroyed
from the earth: and Noe only remained, and they that were with him in the
ark.
[...]
8:10 And having waited yet seven other days, he again sent forth the dove
out of the ark.
8:11 And she came to him in the evening, carrying a bough of an olive tree,
with green leaves, in her mouth. Noe therefore understood that the waters
were ceased upon the earth.
8:12 And he stayed yet other seven days: and he sent forth the dove, which
returned not any more unto him.
8:13 Therefore in the six hundreth and first year, the first month, the first
day of the month, the waters were lessened upon the earth, and Noe opening
the covering of the ark, looked, and saw that the face of the earth was dried.
8:14 In the second month, the seven and twentieth day of the month, the earth
was dried.
8:15 And God spoke to Noe, saying:
8:16 Go out of the ark, thou and thy wife, thy sons, and the wives of thy
sons with thee.
8:17 All livings things that are with thee of all flesh, as well in fowls
as in beasts, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, bring out
with thee, and go ye upon the earth: increased and multiply upon it.
8:18 So Noe went out, he and his sons: his wife, and the wives of his sons
with him.
8:19 And all living things, and cattle, and creeping things that creep upon
the earth, according to their kinds, went out of the ark.
8:20 And Noe built an altar unto the Lord: and taking of all cattle and fowls
that were clean, offered holocausts upon the altar.
8:21 And the Lord smelled a sweet savour, and said: I will no more curse the
earth for the sake of man: for the imagination and thought of man's heart
are prone to evil from his youth: therefore I will no more destroy every living
soul as I have done.
8:22 All the days of the earth, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer
and winter, night and day, shall not cease.
