    1And God remembered Noah, along with all the living creatures and the animals that were with him in the ark. And God caused a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters began to subside.

    2The fountains of the deep and the floodgates of the heavens were closed, and the rain from the heavens was restrained.

    3The waters continued to recede from the earth, steadily decreasing, and after one hundred and fifty days, the waters had diminished.

    4The ark came to rest in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat.

    5The waters continued to decrease until the tenth month. In the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains became visible.

    6At the end of forty days, Noah opened the window of the ark that he had made.

    7He sent out a raven, and it kept flying back and forth until the waters had dried up from the earth.

    8Then he sent out a dove to see if the waters had receded from the surface of the ground.

    9But the dove found no resting place for the sole of her foot, so she returned to the ark, for the waters were still over the surface of the whole earth. Noah reached out his hand, took her, and brought her back to himself in the ark.

    10He waited another seven days and again sent out the dove from the ark.

    11The dove came back to him in the evening, and in her beak was a freshly plucked olive leaf. Noah then knew that the waters had receded from the earth.

    13In the six hundred and first year, in the first month, on the first day of the month, the waters dried up from the earth. Noah removed the covering of the ark and saw that the surface of the ground was dry.

    14By the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was completely dry.

    15Then God spoke to Noah, saying:

    16Leave the ark, you and your wife, your sons, and your sons' wives with you.

    17Bring out every living thing that is with you—all creatures, including birds, livestock, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth—so they can multiply on the earth, be fruitful, and increase in number.

    18So Noah went out, along with his sons, his wife, and his sons' wives.

    19Every living thing, every creeping thing, every bird, and everything that moves on the earth went out of the ark, family by family.

    9two by two they came to Noah and entered the ark, male and female, as God had commanded Noah.
