Genesis 8:13

וַ יְהִי בְּ אַחַת וְ שֵׁשׁ מֵאֹות שָׁנָה בָּ רִאשֹׁון בְּ אֶחָד לַ חֹדֶשׁ חָרְבוּ הַ מַּיִם מֵ עַל הָ אָרֶץ וַ יָּסַר נֹחַ אֶת מִכְסֵה הַ תֵּבָה וַ יַּרְא וְ הִנֵּה חָרְבוּ פְּנֵי הָ אֲדָמָה

And he is becoming in one and six hundred of a duplication, in the First-one,321 in one to the New-one, the Dual-Waters have been laid-desolate322 from upon the Earth; and Rest is causing to turn aside the covering of the Chest,323 and he is seeing, and behold, the faces of the Red-one have been laid-desolate.
