Καὶ ἀπέστειλεν τὴν περιστερὰν ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ, ἰδεῖν εἰ κεκόπακεν τὸ ὕδωρ ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς γῆς.
And he sent the dove after it, to see if the water had abated from the face of the earth.
וישׁלח את־היונה מאתו לראות הקלו המים מעל פני האדמה׃
* ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς γῆς | ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς
* abated OR ceased OR subsided
