Genesis 8:14-22

The Message Bible MSG

14 By the twenty-seventh day of the second month, the Earth was completely dry.

15 God spoke to Noah:

16 "Leave the ship, you and your wife and your sons and your sons' wives.

17 And take all the animals with you, the whole menagerie of birds and mammals and crawling creatures, all that brimming prodigality of life, so they can reproduce and flourish on the Earth."

18 Noah disembarked with his sons and wife and his sons' wives.

19 Then all the animals, crawling creatures, birds - every creature on the face of the Earth - left the ship family by family.

20 Noah built an altar to God. He selected clean animals and birds from every species and offered them as burnt-offerings on the altar.

21 God smelled the sweet fragrance and thought to himself, "I'll never again curse the ground because of people. I know they have this bent toward evil from an early age, but I'll never again kill off everything living as I've just done.

22 For as long as Earth lasts, planting and harvest, cold and heat, Summer and winter, day and night will never stop."

New International Version NIV

14 By the twenty-seventh day of the second month 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.

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.”

18 So Noah came out, together with his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives.

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 and, taking some of all the clean animals and clean birds, he sacrificed burnt offerings on it.

21 The LORD smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart: “Never again will I curse the ground because of humans, even though every inclination of the human heart is evil from childhood. And never again will I destroy all living creatures, as I have done.

22 “As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease.”
