Genesis 8.1-5

But God remembered Noah and all the wild animals and all the domesticated animals that were with him in the ark. And God made a wind blow over the Earth, and the waters subsided. The fountains of the deep and the windows of the Heavens were closed; the rain from the Heavens was restrained, and the waters gradually receded from the Earth.

At the end of one hundred fifty days the waters had abated; and in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ark came to rest on the high mountains. The waters continued to abate until the tenth month; on the first day of the month the tops of the mountains appeared.
