    11When the dove returned to him in the evening, there was a freshly plucked olive leaf in its beak! Noah knew that the waters had receded from the earth.

    12He waited another seven days and sent the dove out again, but it did not return to him this time.

    13In Noah’s six hundred and first year, in the first day of the first month, the waters had dried up from the earth, and Noah removed the covering from the ark and saw that the surface of the ground was dry.

    14And by the twenty-seventh day of the second month the earth was dry.

    15Then God spoke to Noah and said,

    16“Come out of the ark, you, your wife, your sons, and your sons’ wives with you.

    17Bring out with you all the living creatures that are with you. Bring out every living thing, including the birds, animals, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth. Let them increase and be fruitful and multiply on the earth!”

    18Noah went out along with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives.

    19Every living creature, every creeping thing, every bird, and everything that moves on the earth went out of the ark in their groups.

    1But God remembered Noah and all the wild animals and domestic animals that were with him in the ark. God caused a wind to blow over the earth and the waters receded.

    2The fountains of the deep and the floodgates of heaven were closed, and the rain stopped falling from the sky.

    3The waters kept receding steadily from the earth, so that they had gone down by the end of the 150 days.

    4On the seventeenth day of the seventh month, the ark came to rest on one of the mountains of Ararat.

    5The waters kept on receding until the tenth month. On the first day of the tenth month, the tops of the mountains became visible.

    6At the end of forty days, Noah opened the window he had made in the ark

    7and sent out a raven; it kept flying back and forth until the waters had dried up on the earth.

    8Then Noah sent out a dove to see if the waters had receded from the surface of the ground.

    9The dove could not find a resting place for its feet because water still covered the surface of the entire earth, and so it returned to Noah in the ark. He stretched out his hand, took the dove, and brought it back into the ark.

    7Noah entered the ark along with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives because of the floodwaters.

    8Pairs of clean animals, of unclean animals, of birds, and of everything that creeps along the ground,

    10And after seven days the floodwaters engulfed the earth.

    11In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month– on that day all the fountains of the great deep burst open and the floodgates of the heavens were opened.

    12And the rain fell on the earth forty days and forty nights.

    13On that very day Noah entered the ark, accompanied by his sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, along with his wife and his sons’ three wives.

    14They entered, along with every living creature after its kind, every animal after its kind, every creeping thing that creeps on the earth after its kind, and every bird after its kind, everything with wings.

    15Pairs of all creatures that have the breath of life came into the ark to Noah.

    16Those that entered were male and female, just as God commanded him. Then the LORD shut him in.

    17The flood engulfed the earth for forty days. As the waters increased, they lifted the ark and raised it above the earth.

    18The waters completely overwhelmed the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the waters.
