8 Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground;
8 Then he sent out a dove to see if the water had receded from the surface of the ground.
9 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned to him into the ark; for the waters [were] on the face of the whole earth. Then he put forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in to him into the ark.
9 But the dove could find nowhere to perch because there was water over all the surface of the earth; so it returned to Noah in the ark. He reached out his hand and took the dove and brought it back to himself in the ark.
10 And he stayed yet other seven days, and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark;
10 He waited seven more days and again sent out the dove from the ark.
11 And the dove came in to him in the evening, and lo, in her mouth [was] an olive-leaf plucked off: So Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.
11 When the dove returned to him in the evening, there in its beak was a freshly plucked olive leaf! Then Noah knew that the water had receded from the earth.
12 And he stayed yet other seven days, and sent forth the dove; which returned not again to him any more.
12 He waited seven more days and sent the dove out again, but this time it did not return to him.
13 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first [month], the first [day] of the month, the waters were dried from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and behold, the face of the ground was dry.

15 And God spoke to Noah, saying,
15 Then God said to Noah,
16 Go forth from the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee.
16 “Come out of the ark, you and your wife and your sons and their wives.
17 Bring forth with thee every living animal that [is] with thee, of all flesh, of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping animal that creepeth upon the earth; that they may breed abundantly on the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth.
17 Bring out every kind of living creature that is with you—the birds, the animals, and all the creatures that move along the ground—so they can multiply on the earth and be fruitful and increase in number on it.”
18 And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him:
18 So Noah came out, together with his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives.
19 Every beast, every creeping animal, and every fowl, [and] whatsoever creepeth upon the earth, after their kinds, went out of the ark.
19 All the animals and all the creatures that move along the ground and all the birds—everything that moves on land—came out of the ark, one kind after another.
