DRB ⁶ Et il arriva, au bout de quarante jours, que Noé ouvrit la fenêtre de l'arche qu'il avait faite ;

KJV ⁶ And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made:

DRB ⁷ et il lâcha le corbeau, qui sortit, allant et revenant jusqu'à ce que les eaux eussent séché de dessus la terre.

KJV ⁷ And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.

DRB ⁸ Et il lâcha d'avec lui la colombe, pour voir si les eaux avaient baissé sur la face du sol ;

KJV ⁸ Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground;

DRB ⁹ mais la colombe ne trouva pas où poser la plante de son pied, et revint à lui dans l'arche, car les eaux étaient sur la face de toute la terre ; et il étendit sa main, et la prit, et la fit entrer auprès de lui dans l'arche.

KJV ⁹ But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him into the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth: then he put forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark.

DRB ¹⁰ Et il attendit encore sept autres jours, et il lâcha de nouveau la colombe hors de l'arche.

KJV ¹⁰ And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark;

DRB ¹¹ Et la colombe vint à lui au temps du soir, et voici, dans son bec, une feuille d'olivier arrachée. Et Noé sut que les eaux avaient baissé sur la terre.

KJV ¹¹ 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.

DRB ¹² Et il attendit encore sept autres jours, et il lâcha la colombe, et elle ne revint plus de nouveau vers lui.

KJV ¹² And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; which returned not again unto him any more.
