Genesis 8:7 in Context — Genesis 8
5 Les eaux allèrent en diminuant jusqu’au dixième mois. Le dixième mois, le premier jour du mois, apparurent les sommets des montagnes.
6 Au bout de quarante jours, Noé ouvrit la fenêtre qu’il avait faite à l’arche.
7 Il lâcha le corbeau, qui sortit, partant et revenant, jusqu’à ce que les eaux eussent séché sur la terre.
8 Il lâcha aussi la colombe, pour voir si les eaux avaient diminué à la surface de la terre.
9 Mais la colombe ne trouva aucun lieu pour poser la plante de son pied, et elle revint à lui dans l’arche, car il y avait des eaux à la surface de toute la terre. Il avança la main, la prit, et la fit rentrer auprès de lui dans l’arche.
