Parallel

Genesis 8:21

King James Version (1769 Blayney revision, with Apocrypha) · Berean Standard Bible

And the Lord smelled a sweet savour (note: Heb. a savour of rest Or, satisfaction); and the Lord said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake; for the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.
When the LORD smelled the pleasing aroma, He said in His heart, “Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from his youth. And never again will I destroy all living creatures as I have done.
