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.

And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening, and there was morning the first day.

And the waters abated continually until the tenth month: in the tenth month, on the first of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.
