Genesis 8:20-22

Common English Bible CEB

20 Noah built an altar to the LORD. He took some of the clean large animals and some of the clean birds, and placed entirely burned offerings on the altar.

21 The LORD smelled the pleasing scent, and the LORD thought to himself, I will not curse the fertile land anymore because of human beings since the ideas of the human mind are evil from their youth. I will never again destroy every living thing as I have done.

22 As long as the earth exists, seedtime and harvest, cold and hot, summer and autumn, day and night will not cease.

New International Version NIV
