Genesis 8:2 in Context — Genesis 8
1 Dieu se souvint de Noé, de tous les animaux et de tout le bétail qui étaient avec lui dans l’arche; et Dieu fit passer un vent sur la terre, et les eaux s’apaisèrent.
2 Les sources de l’abîme et les écluses des cieux furent fermées, et la pluie ne tomba plus du ciel.
3 Les eaux se retirèrent de dessus la terre, s’en allant et s’éloignant, et les eaux diminuèrent au bout de cent cinquante jours.
4 Le septième mois, le dix-septième jour du mois, l’arche s’arrêta sur les montagnes d’Ararat.
