And Jehovah smelled the sweet savor; and Jehovah said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake, for that the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more everything living, as I have done.

And when the sweet smell came up to the Lord, he said in his heart, I will not again put a curse on the earth because of man, for the thoughts of man's heart are evil from his earliest days; never again will I send destruction on all living things as I have done.

Και ωσφρανθη Κυριος οσμην ευωδιας· και ειπε Κυριος εν τη καρδια αυτου, Δεν θελω καταρασθη πλεον την γην εξ αιτιας του ανθρωπου· διοτι ο λογισμος της καρδιας του ανθρωπου ειναι κακος εκ νηπιοτητος αυτου· ουδε θελω παταξει πλεον παντα τα ζωντα, καθως εκαμον·

And the Lord smelled a sweet savour; 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.

Yahweh smelled the pleasant aroma. Yahweh said in his heart, “I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake because the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth. I will never again strike every living thing, as I have done.
