10 And he waited another seven days, and again he sent out the dove from the ark.
11 And the dove came to him in the evening, and behold, a freshly-picked olive tree leaf was in her mouth. And Noah knew that the waters had subsided from upon the earth.
12 And he waited seven more days, and he sent out the dove. But it did not return again to him.
13 And it happened that, in the six hundred and first year, in the first month, on the first day of the month, the waters dried up from upon the earth. And Noah removed the covering of the ark and looked. And behold, the face of the ground was dried up.
14 And in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.
15 And God spoke to Noah, saying:
16 “Go out from the ark, you and your wife, and your sons, and your sons’ wives with you.
