1. And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that were with him in the ark: and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters assuaged;
2. the fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained;
3. and the waters returned from off the earth continually: and after the end of an hundred and fifty days the waters decreased.
4. And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
5. And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.
6. And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made:
7. and he sent forth a raven, and it went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.
