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 alight. It flew back to the boat, and Noah reached out and took it in.
