1. And God remembereth Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle which [are] with him in the ark, and God causeth a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subside,
2. and closed are the fountains of the deep and the net-work of the heavens, and restrained is the shower from the heavens.
3. And turn back do the waters from off the earth, going on and returning; and the waters are lacking at the end of a hundred and fifty days.
4. And the ark resteth, in the seventh month, in the seventeenth day of the month, on mountains of Ararat;
5. and the waters have been going and becoming lacking till the tenth month; in the tenth [month], on the first of the month, appeared the heads of the mountains.
6. And it cometh to pass, at the end of forty days, that Noah openeth the window of the ark which he made,
7. and he sendeth forth the raven, and it goeth out, going out and turning back till the drying of the waters from off the earth.
8. And he sendeth forth the dove from him to see whether the waters have been lightened from off the face of the ground,
9. and the dove hath not found rest for the sole of her foot, and she turneth back unto him, unto the ark, for waters [are] on the face of all the earth, and he putteth out his hand, and taketh her, and bringeth her in unto him, unto the ark.
10. And he stayeth yet other seven days, and addeth to send forth the dove from the ark;
