Genesis 8:7
He sent out a raven; it flew back and forth waiting for the floodwaters to dry up. Then he sent a dove to check on the flood conditions, but it couldn't even find a place to perch—water still covered the Earth. Noah reached out and caught it, brought it back into the ship.
Genesis 8:20
Noah built an altar to God . He selected clean animals and birds from every species and offered them as burnt offerings on the altar.

I know they have this bent toward evil from an early age, but I'll never again kill off everything living as I've just done.
Genesis 8:22
For as long as Earth lasts, planting and harvest, cold and heat, Summer and winter, day and night will never stop."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said. This was the second of Job's friends that came to visit him, Job 2:11; and is mentioned next to Eliphaz there, and takes his turn in this controversy in the same side; which no doubt was agreed upon among themselves, as well as the part each should bear, and the general sentiment they should pursue, which was the same in them all. Some have observed, that Job's friends were like the messengers that brought him the tidings of his losses, before one had done speaking another came; and so as soon as one of his friends had delivered his discourse, and before Job could well finish his reply, up starts another to charge him afresh, as here Bildad did, who said as follows.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Then answered Bildad the Shuhite - ; see the notes at Job 2:11.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER VIII

Bildad answers, and reproves Job for his justifying himself,

1, 2.

Shows that God is just, and never punishes but for iniquity;

and intimates that it was on account of their sins that his

children were cut off, 3, 4.

States that, if Job would humble himself to the Almighty,

provided he were innocent, his captivity would soon be turned,

and his latter end be abundantly prosperous, 5-7.

Appeals to the ancients for the truth of what he says; and

draws examples from the vegetable world, to show how soon the

wicked may be cut off, and the hope of the hypocrite perish,

8-19.

Asserts that God never did cast of a perfect man nor help the

wicked; and that, if Job be innocent, his end shall be crowned

with prosperity, 20-22.
