Genesis 8:11 in Context — Genesis 8
9 E não achou a pomba onde sentar a planta de seu pé, e voltou-se a ele à arca, porque as águas estavam ainda sobre a face de toda a terra: então ele estendeu sua mão e recolhendo-a, a fez entrar consigo na arca.
10 E esperou ainda outros sete dias, e voltou a enviar a pomba fora da arca.
11 E a pomba voltou a ele à hora da tarde; e eis que trazia uma folha de oliveira tomada em seu bico; então Noé entendeu que as águas haviam se retirado de sobre a terra.
12 E esperou ainda outros sete dias, e enviou a pomba, a qual não voltou já mais a ele.
13 E sucedeu que no ano seiscentos e um de Noé, no mês primeiro, ao primeiro do mês, as águas se enxugaram de sobre a terra e tirou Noé a cobertura da arca, e olhou, e eis que a face da terra estava enxuta.
