Genesis 8:5

The waters kept on receding ¹  until the tenth month. On the first day of the tenth month, the tops of the mountains became visible. ² 

The waters continued to recede until the tenth month, and on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains became visible.

The water decreased steadily until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains became visible.

Two and a half months later, as the waters continued to go down, other mountain peaks began to appear.

The water kept going down until the tenth month. On the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains came into view.

And still the waters went on falling, till on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains were seen.

The waters continued to abate until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains appeared.

And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month. In the tenth month , on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.

The waters kept on receding ¹  until the tenth month. On the first day of the tenth month, the tops of the mountains became visible. ²
