And the fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were closed, and the pour of rain from heaven was stopped.
The underground waters stopped flowing, and the torrential rains from the sky were stopped.
And the waters retired from the earth, continually retiring; and in the course of a hundred and fifty days the waters abated.
So the floodwaters gradually receded from the earth. After 150 days,

And he sent out the raven, which went forth going to and fro, until the waters were dried from the earth.
and released a raven. The bird flew back and forth until the floodwaters on the earth had dried up.
And he sent out the dove from him, to see if the waters had become low on the ground.
He also released a dove to see if the water had receded and it could find dry ground.
But the dove found no resting-place for the sole of her foot, and returned to him into the ark; for the waters were on the whole earth; and he put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her to him into the ark.
But the dove could find no place to land because the water still covered the ground. So it returned to the boat, and Noah held out his hand and drew the dove back inside.
And he waited yet other seven days, and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark.
After waiting another seven days, Noah released the dove again.
And the dove came to him at eventide; and behold, in her beak was an olive-leaf plucked off; and Noah knew that the waters had become low on the earth.
This time the dove returned to him in the evening with a fresh olive leaf in its beak. Then Noah knew that the floodwaters were almost gone.
And he waited yet other seven days, and sent forth the dove; but she returned no more to him.
He waited another seven days and then released the dove again. This time it did not come back.
Exiting the Ark
And it came to pass in the six hundred and first year, in the first [month], on the first of the month, that the waters were dried up from the earth. And Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and behold, the surface of the ground was dried.

Go out of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee.
“Leave the boat, all of you — you and your wife, and your sons and their wives.
Bring forth with thee every animal which is with thee, of all flesh, fowl as well as cattle, and all the creeping things which creep on the earth, that they may swarm on the earth, and may be fruitful and multiply on the earth.
Release all the animals — the birds, the livestock, and the small animals that scurry along the ground — so they can be fruitful and multiply throughout the earth.”
And Noah went out, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him.
So Noah, his wife, and his sons and their wives left the boat.
All the animals, all the creeping things, and all the fowl -- everything that moves on the earth, after their kinds, went out of the ark.
And all of the large and small animals and birds came out of the boat, pair by pair.
Noah Builds an Altar
And Noah built an altar to Jehovah; and took of every clean animal, and of all clean fowl, and offered up burnt-offerings on the altar.
And Noah built an altar to Jehovah; and took of every clean animal, and of all clean fowl, and offered up burnt-offerings on the altar.
And Jehovah smelled the sweet odour. And Jehovah said in his heart, I will no more henceforth curse the ground on account of Man, for the thought of Man's heart is evil from his youth; and I will no more smite every living thing, as I have done.
And the LORD was pleased with the aroma of the sacrifice and said to himself, “I will never again curse the ground because of the human race, even though everything they think or imagine is bent toward evil from childhood. I will never again destroy all living things.
