He waswith even more animals, which wanted to show off its advantages, but pointed out the dove Noah, who was sitting alone on a branch and tried to speak.
- Why do not you say? - Noah asked her. - Do you have something to be proud of?
- Do not think I was better, smarter or prettier than other animals - she cooed the dove. Each of us has something that no other, and this is something God gave each one who created us.
- Dove is right - said Noah. I do not have to brag and compete among themselves. God told me to take on the ark all the species of his creatures, cattle and wild animals, birds and insects.
When animals are heard, and the pleasure that was forgotten about their przechwałkach.
Before we opened the doors of the ark, Noah, said:
- I love you all, but it turned out that it was a dove with you all modest, so it will choose the messenger.
Noah kept his word. When the rain stopped, he sent a dove that flew around the world and saw how things are. Finally, she returned with an olive branch in the spout and Noah knew that the water fall. And when he sailed to dry land, he left the ark with his family and all animals.
After the flood, God promised the people that will never destroy the earth because of their sins. Henceforth will change the time of sowing and time of collection, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night.
You need to know that the world is more pigeons than tigers, leopards,wolves, vultures and other wild beasts. Dove lives happily without fighting with each other. It's a bird of peace.
