3 and the water gradually went down for 150 days.
4 On the seventeenth day of the seventh month the boat came to rest on a mountain in the Ararat range.
5 The water kept going down, and on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains appeared.
6 After forty days Noah opened a window
7 and sent out a raven. It did not come back, but kept flying around until the water was completely gone.
8 Meanwhile, Noah sent out a dove to see if the water had gone down,
9 but since the water still covered all the land, the dove did not find a place to light. It flew back to the boat, and Noah reached out and took it in.
