他又等了七天，再把鸽子从方舟放出去。
And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark

到了晚上，鸽子回到他那里，嘴里叼着一个新拧下来的橄榄叶子，挪亚就知道地上的水退了。
And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was an olive leaf pluckt off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth

他又等了七天，放出鸽子去，鸽子就不再回来了。

神记念挪亚和挪亚方舟里的一切走兽牲畜。神叫风吹地，水势渐落。
And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that was with him in the ark: and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters asswaged
