1 God remembered Noah and every living thing and all the livestock that were with him in the ark. So God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the water receded.
2 Also the fountains of the deep and the floodgates of heaven were closed, and the rain from the heavens was restrained.
3 The water receded steadily from the earth, and after the end of one hundred and fifty days the waters decreased.
4 The ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat.
