Genesis 8:10 in context

  1. 8And he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground;
  2. 9but the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him to the ark; for the waters were on the face of the whole earth: and he put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her in unto him into the ark.
  3. 10And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark;
  4. 11and the dove came in to him at eventide; and, lo, in her mouth an olive-leaf plucked off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.
  5. 12And he stayed yet other seven days, and sent forth the dove; and she returned not again unto him any more.
