and God caused a wind to pass over the earth, and the water subsided. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/genesis/8-2.htm"><b>2</b></a></span>Also the fountains of the deep and the floodgates of the sky were closed, and the rain from the sky was restrained; <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/genesis/8-3.htm"><b>3</b></a></span>and the water receded steadily from the earth, and at the end of one hundred and fifty days the water decreased. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/genesis/8-4.htm"><b>4</b></a></span>And in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ark rested upon the mountains of Ararat. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/genesis/8-5.htm"><b>5</b></a></span>And the water decreased steadily until the tenth month;

<span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/genesis/8-7.htm"><b>7</b></a></span>and he sent out a raven, and it flew here and there until the water was dried up from the earth. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/genesis/8-8.htm"><b>8</b></a></span>Then he sent out a dove from him, to see if the water was abated from the face of the land; <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/genesis/8-9.htm"><b>9</b></a></span>but the dove found no resting place for the sole of her foot, so she returned to him into the ark; for the water was on the surface of all the earth. Then he put out his hand and took her, and brought her into the ark to himself. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/genesis/8-10.htm"><b>10</b></a></span>So he waited yet another seven days; and again he sent out the dove from the ark. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/genesis/8-11.htm"><b>11</b></a></span>And the dove came to him toward evening; and behold, in her beak was a freshly picked olive leaf. So Noah knew that the water was abated from the earth. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/genesis/8-12.htm"><b>12</b></a></span>Then he waited yet another seven days, and sent out the dove; but she did not return to him again. <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/genesis/8-13.htm"><b>13</b></a></span>Now it came about in the six hundred and first year, in the first <i>month,</i> on the first of the month, the water was dried up from the earth.
