Genesis 8:6-9

6After 40 more days, Noah opened a window in the ship.

7He sent a raven to fly away. The raven flew away from the ship and then it returned. It continued to do this until the earth was dry.

8Then Noah sent out a dove. He wanted to see if the water had gone away from the top of the ground.

9But the dove could not find anywhere to stand. Water still covered all the ground. So it returned to Noah in the ship. Noah put out his hand and took the dove back into the ship.
