Genesis 8:13-19

13Noah was now 601 years old. On the first day of the first month, the water that had covered the earth was now gone. The ground had become dry. Noah made a hole in the roof of the ship and he looked around. He saw that the top of the ground was dry.

14By the 27th day of the second month, the earth had become completely dry.

15God said to Noah,

16‘Come out of the ship. Bring your wife, your sons and their wives with you.

17Bring every different kind of living animal out of the ship. Bring out the birds, the animals, and the living things that move across the ground. Now they may give birth to young ones again. They can grow in number all over the earth.’

18Noah went out of the ship, together with his wife, his sons and their wives.

19All the living animals also went out of the ship. The birds and the living things that move across the ground all went out. Every different kind of animal came out of the ship, each of them in its own group.
