Genesis 8:1-5

New American Standard Bible

The Flood Subsides

8 But ^(A)God remembered Noah and all the animals and all the livestock that were with him in the ark; and ^(B)God caused a wind to pass over the earth, and the water subsided. ² Also ^(C)the fountains of the deep and the ^[a]floodgates of the sky were closed, and ^(D)the rain from the sky was restrained; ³ and the water receded steadily from the earth, and at the end ^(E)of 150 days the water decreased. ⁴ Then in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, ^(F)the ark rested upon the mountains of Ararat. ⁵ And the water decreased steadily until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains became visible.
