Genesis 8:12-18

12Then he waited another seven days longer, and sent out 1the dove; but it did not return to him again.

13Now it came about in the 2six hundred and first year, in the first month, on the first of the month, that the water was dried up 3from the earth. Then Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and behold, the 4surface of the ground had dried up. 14And in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry. 15Then God spoke to Noah, saying, 16“Go out of the ark, you and your wife and your sons and your sons’ wives with you. 17Bring out with you every living thing of all flesh that is with you, birds and animals and every crawling thing that crawls on the earth, that they may 56breed abundantly on the earth, and 7be fruitful and multiply on the earth.” 18So Noah went out, and his sons and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him.
