LXX	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 και εμνησθη ο θεος του νωε και παντων των θηριων και παντων των κτηνων και παντων των πετεινων και παντων των ερπετων οσα ην μετ' αυτου εν τη κιβωτω και επηγαγεν ο θεος πνευμα επι την γην και εκοπασεν το υδωρ	1 Then God remembered Noah, and all living things, and all the cattle, which were with him in the ark, and he brought a wind across the earth, and the waters were diminished.
2 και επεκαλυφθησαν αι πηγαι της αβυσσου και οι καταρρακται του ουρανου και συνεσχεθη ο υετος απο του ουρανου	2 And the fountains of the abyss and the floodgates of heaven were closed. And the rain from heaven was restrained.
3 και ενεδιδου το υδωρ πορευομενον απο της γης ενεδιδου και ηλαττονουτο το υδωρ μετα πεντηκοντα και εκατον ημερας	3 And the waters were restored to their coming and going from the earth. And they began to diminish after one hundred and fifty days.
4 και εκαθισεν η κιβωτος εν μηνι τω εβδομω εβδομη και εικαδι του μηνος επι τα ορη τα αραρατ	4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, upon the mountains of Armenia.
5 το δε υδωρ πορευομενον ηλαττονουτο εως του δεκατου μηνος εν δε τω ενδεκατω μηνι τη πρωτη του μηνος ωφθησαν αι κεφαλαι των ορεων	5 Yet in truth, the waters were departing and decreasing until the tenth month. For in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tips of the mountains appeared.
6 και εγενετο μετα τεσσαρακοντα ημερας ηνεωξεν νωε την θυριδα της κιβωτου ην εποιησεν	6 And when forty days had passed, Noah, opening the window that he had made in the ark, sent forth a raven,
7 και απεστειλεν τον κορακα του ιδειν ει κεκοπακεν το υδωρ και εξελθων ουχ υπεστρεψεν εως του ξηρανθηναι το υδωρ απο της γης	7 which went forth and did not return, until the waters were dried up across the earth.
8 και απεστειλεν την περιστεραν οπισω αυτου ιδειν ει κεκοπακεν το υδωρ απο προσωπου της γης	8 Likewise, he sent forth a dove after him, in order to see if the waters had now ceased upon the face of the earth.
9 και ουχ ευρουσα η περιστερα αναπαυσιν τοις ποσιν αυτης υπεστρεψεν προς αυτον εις την κιβωτον οτι υδωρ ην επι παντι προσωπω πασης της γης και εκτεινας την χειρα αυτου ελαβεν αυτην και εισηγαγεν αυτην προς εαυτον εις την κιβωτον	9 But when she did not find a place where her foot might rest, she returned to him in the ark. For the waters were upon the whole earth. And he extended his hand and caught her, and he brought her into the ark.
10 και επισχων ετι ημερας επτα ετερας παλιν εξαπεστειλεν την περιστεραν εκ της κιβωτου	10 And then, having waited a further seven days, he again sent forth the dove out of the ark.
11 και ανεστρεψεν προς αυτον η περιστερα το προς εσπεραν και ειχεν φυλλον ελαιας καρφος εν τω στοματι αυτης και εγνω νωε οτι κεκοπακεν το υδωρ απο της γης	11 And she came to him in the evening, carrying in her mouth an olive branch with green leaves. Noah then understood that the waters had ceased upon the earth.
12 και επισχων ετι ημερας επτα ετερας παλιν εξαπεστειλεν την περιστεραν και ου προσεθετο του επιστρεψαι προς αυτον ετι	12 And nevertheless, he waited another seven days. And he sent forth the dove, which no longer returned to him.
13 και εγενετο εν τω ενι και εξακοσιοστω ετει εν τη ζωη του νωε του πρωτου μηνος μια του μηνος εξελιπεν το υδωρ απο της γης και απεκαλυψεν νωε την στεγην της κιβωτου ην εποιησεν και ειδεν οτι εξελιπεν το υδωρ απο προσωπου της γης	13 Therefore, in the six hundred and first year, in the first month, on the first day of the month, the waters were diminished upon the earth. And Noah, opening the cover of the ark, gazed out and saw that the surface of the earth had become dry.
14 εν δε τω μηνι τω δευτερω εβδομη και εικαδι του μηνος εξηρανθη η γη	14 In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was made dry.
15 και ειπεν κυριος ο θεος τω νωε λεγων	15 Then God spoke to Noah, saying:
16 εξελθε εκ της κιβωτου συ και η γυνη σου και οι υιοι σου και αι γυναικες των υιων σου μετα σου	16 “Go out of the ark, you and your wife, your sons and the wives of your sons with you.
17 και παντα τα θηρια οσα εστιν μετα σου και πασα σαρξ απο πετεινων εως κτηνων και παν ερπετον κινουμενον επι της γης εξαγαγε μετα σεαυτου και αυξανεσθε και πληθυνεσθε επι της γης	17 Bring out with you all the living things that are with you, all that is flesh: as with the birds, so also with the wild beasts and all the animals that move upon the earth. And enter upon the land: increase and multiply upon it.”
18 και εξηλθεν νωε και η γυνη αυτου και οι υιοι αυτου και αι γυναικες των υιων αυτου μετ' αυτου	18 And so Noah and his sons went out, and his wife and the wives of his sons with him.
19 και παντα τα θηρια και παντα τα κτηνη και παν πετεινον και παν ερπετον κινουμενον επι της γης κατα γενος αυτων εξηλθοσαν εκ της κιβωτου	19 Then also all living things, and the cattle, and the animals that move upon the earth, according to their kinds, departed from the ark.
20 και ωκοδομησεν νωε θυσιαστηριον τω θεω και ελαβεν απο παντων των κτηνων των καθαρων και απο παντων των πετεινων των καθαρων και ανηνεγκεν ολοκαρπωσεις επι το θυσιαστηριον	20 Then Noah built an altar to the Lord. And, taking from each of the cattle and birds that were clean, he offered holocausts upon the altar.
21 και ωσφρανθη κυριος ο θεος οσμην ευωδιας και ειπεν κυριος ο θεος διανοηθεις ου προσθησω ετι του καταρασασθαι την γην δια τα εργα των ανθρωπων οτι εγκειται η διανοια του ανθρωπου επιμελως επι τα πονηρα εκ νεοτητος ου προσθησω ουν ετι παταξαι πασαν σαρκα ζωσαν καθως εποιησα	21 And the Lord smelled the sweet odor and said: “I will no longer curse the earth because of man. For the feelings and thoughts of the heart of man are prone to evil from his youth. Therefore, I will no longer pierce every living soul as I have done.
22 πασας τας ημερας της γης σπερμα και θερισμος ψυχος και καυμα θερος και εαρ ημεραν και νυκτα ου καταπαυσουσιν	22 All the days of the earth, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, night and day, will not cease.”
