3
So the floodwaters gradually receded from the earth. After 150 days,
4
exactly five months from the time the flood began, the boat came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.
5
Two and a half months later, as the waters continued to go down, other mountain peaks became visible.

After another forty days, Noah opened the window he had made in the boat
7
and released a raven. The bird flew back and forth until the floodwaters on the earth had dried up.
