16. Go out of the ark, together with your wife and your sons and your sons’ wives.
17. Bring out with you every living thing that is with you—all creatures, be they birds or animals or crawling things that crawl on the earth—and let them abound on the earth, and be fertile and multiply on it.
18. So Noah came out, together with his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives;
19. and all the animals, all the birds, and all the crawling creatures that crawl on the earth went out of the ark by families.
20. Then Noah built an altar to the Lord, and choosing from every clean animal and every clean bird, he offered burnt offerings on the altar.
21. When the Lord smelled the sweet odor, the Lord said to himself: Never again will I curse the ground because of human beings, since the desires of the human heart are evil from youth; nor will I ever again strike down every living being, as I have done.
