Genesis 8:1-4

New American Standard Bible 1995

The Flood Subsides

8 But ^(A)God remembered Noah and all the beasts and all the cattle 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 one hundred and fifty days the water decreased. ⁴ In the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, ^(F)the ark rested upon the mountains of Ararat.
