10 Y esperó aún otros siete días, y volvió á enviar la paloma fuera del arca.

11 Y la paloma volvió á él á la hora de la tarde; y he aquí [que traía] una hoja de oliva tomada en su pico: y entendió Noé que las aguas se habían retirado de sobre la tierra.

12 Y esperó aún otros siete días, y envió la paloma, la cual no volvió ya más á él.

13 Y sucedió que en el año seiscientos y uno [de Noé], en el mes primero, al primero del mes, las aguas se enjugaron de sobre la tierra; y quitó Noé la cubierta del arca, y miró, y he aquí que la faz de la tierra estaba enjuta.

14 Y en el mes segundo, á los veintisiete días del mes, se secó la tierra.
