11And the dove came back at evening, and in her mouth was an olive-leaf broken off: so Noah was certain that the waters had gone down on the earth.
12And after seven days more, he sent the dove out again, but she did not come back to him.
13And in the six hundred and first year, on the first day of the first month, the waters were dry on the earth: and Noah took the cover off the ark and saw that the face of the earth was dry.
14And on the twenty-seventh day of the second month the earth was dry.
16Go out of the ark, you and your wife and your sons and your sons' wives.
17Take out with you every living thing which is with you, birds and cattle and everything which goes on the earth, so that they may have offspring and be fertile and be increased on the earth.
