1 Be Gode da Nowa: , ohe fi amola lai gebo fi dusagai ganodini esalu, amo hame gogolei. E da fo amo osobo bagadega asunasi. Amalalu, hano da halalu.
And God remembered Noah, and all the wild—beasts and all the tame-beasts that were with him in the ark, —and God caused a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subsided;
2 Hano hagudu dialu amo ea logo amola mu ea logo ga: si dagoi ba: i. Gibu da muagado dasu logo ga: i.
and the fountains of the roaring-deep were shut, and the windows of the heavens, —and the heavy rain was restrained from the heavens;
3 Hano da osobo bagade yolesili halalu. Eso 150 da dagoloba, hano da hai dagoi ba: i.
and the waters returned from off the earth they went on returning, —and so the waters decreased at the end of a hundred and fifty days.
4 Eso 17 amola oubi fesu amoga, dusagai da A: lala: de Goumi amo da: iya ligisibi ba: i.
And the ark rested, in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, —on the mountains of Ararat.
5 Hano da mae yolesili hala dalu. Amalalu eso age amola oubi nabu amoga, goumi ilia dabuagado bi da ba: i dagoi.
But, the waters went on decreasing, until the tenth month, —in the tenth [month], on the first of the month, were seen the tops of the mountains.
6 Eso 40 asili, Nowa: da fo misa: ne agenesi, e musa: hamoi liligi amo doasi.
And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark that he had made;
7 E da sio ea dio amo ‘la: ifene’, amo gadili asunasi. Amo sio da wa: le asili lalalu, hano da hafoga: i dagoiba: le fawane yolesi.
and sent forth a raven, —and it kept going forth and returning, until the drying up of the waters from off the earth.
8 Amalalu, Nowa: da ‘dafe’ sio amo hano ea hasu hou ba: ma: ne asunasi.
And he sent forth a dove from him, —to see whether the waters had abated, from off the face of the ground;
9 Be hano da osobo huluane dedeboiba: le, ‘dafe’ da fila sa: imu gogolei. Amaiba: le, e da Nowa: dusagai ganodini ema buhagi. Nowa: da ea lobo da: legale amola dafe laleguda: le, dusagai ganodini bu sanasi.
but the dove found no resting-place for the sole of her foot so she returned unto him into the ark, for, waters, were on the face of all the earth; and he put forth his hand and took her, and brought her in unto him, into the ark.
10 E da eso eno fesuale amo aligili, ‘dafe’ bu asunasi.
Then stayed he yet seven days more, —and, again sent forth the dove out of the ark.
11 ‘Dafe’ da daeya amo ema bu misini, e da olife ifa lubi mini manebe ba: i. Amalalu, hano da hai dagoi, amo Nowa: da dawa: i galu.
And the dove came in unto him at eventide, and lo! a newly sprouted olive-leaf, in her mouth, —so Noah knew that the waters had abated from off the earth.
12 E da eso eno fesuale amo aligili, ‘dafe’ bu asunasi. Be amo esoga ‘dafe’ da ema hame buhagi.
And he stayed yet seven days more, —and sent forth the dove, but she returned not again unto him any more.
13 Eso age aligili, oubi age amo ode ganodini Nowa: da lalelegele, ea esalebe ode 601 amo gidigisia, hano da hai dagoi amola osobo bagade da hafoga: i dagoi ba: i. Nowa: da dusagai ea gisigisu fadegale, osobo da hafoga: i dagoi ba: i.
So it came to pass in the six hundred and first year at the beginning, on the first of the month, that the waters had dried up from off the earth, —and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked and lo! the face of the ground was dried.
14 Eso No 27 amo oubi ageyadu amoga, osobo bagade da hafoga: idafa ba: i.
And in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, was the earth dry.
15 Amalalu, Gode da Nowa: ma amane sia: i,
So then, God spake to Noah, saying:
16 “Di, dia uda, dia egefelali amola ilia uda, amo dusagai yolesili, osoboga aligila sa: ima!
Come forth out of the ark, —thou and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons’ wives with thee.
17 Esalebe liligi dia ouligisu amo sio, ohe fi amola liligi da osoboga sugi ahoa, ilia da fi hamone osobo bagade bu nabama: ne, amo gadili oule masa.
All the living creatures that are with thee of all flesh among birds, and among beasts, and among all the creeping things that creep on the earth, bring forth with thee, —and they shall swarm in the earth, and be fruitful and multiply, on the earth.
18 Amaiba: le, Nowa: , egefe udiana, ea uda, amola egefelali ilia udalali, da gadili asili, osoboga aligila sa: i.
So Noah came forth, —and his sons and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him:
19 Ohe fi huluane amola liligi da osoboga sugi ahoasu amola sio fi huluane- liligi huluane osobo bagadega ahoanebe liligi da dusagai yolesili gadili asi. Ilia fi hisu hisu gilisisu hamone, gadili asi.
All the living creatures, all that move along, and all birds, and all that moveth along over the earth—by their families, came forth out of the ark.
20 Amalalu, Nowa: da Hina Godema oloda hamoi. E da ledo hamedei ohe fi amola sio fi lale, gobele sali.
And Noah builded an altar to Yahweh, —and took of all the clean beasts and of all the clean birds, and caused ascending Sacrifices to go up on the altar.
21 Hina Gode da amo gobele salasu ea gabusiga: nabi. E da Ea dogo ganodini agoane sia: i, “Osobo bagade dunu da degabo ea mano fonobahadi eso amola fa: no eso huluane wadela: i hou fawane dawa: lala. Be ea hou ba: beba: le, Na da hobea osobo bagadega gagabusu aligima: ne hame ilegemu. Amola esalebe liligi huluane Na waha medole legei dagoi, amo hou Na da bu hamedafa hamomu.
And Yahweh smelled a satisfying odour, so Yahweh said to himself. I will not, again, curse any more the ground for man’s sake, although the device of the heart of man, be wicked from his youth, —neither will I again, any more smite every living thing, as I have done.
22 Osobo bagade da dialea, hawa: bugisu amola ha: i manu faisu, anegagi amola gia: su, esoi bagade oubi amola anegagi oubi amola, eso amola gasi da mae dagole dialumu.
During all the days of the earth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat and summer and winter, and day and night, shall not cease.
