Genesis 8
1 Toe Sithaw mah kahing hmuennawk boih, Noah hoi nawnto kaom moinawk boih to pahnet ai; long nuiah takhi to songsak pongah, tui to anghak.
And God kept Noah in mind, and all the living things and the cattle which were with him in the ark: and God sent a wind over the earth, and the waters went down.
2 Kathuk thung ih tuipueknawk hoi van ih thokbuemnawk to anghak moe, van hoi angzo kho to dip.
And the fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were shut, and the rain from heaven was stopped.
3 Long asom ih tui to kaang tathuk; ni cumvai, qui pangato pacoengah, tui to amsah tathuk.
And the waters went slowly back from the earth, and at the end of a hundred and fifty days the waters were lower.
4 Khrah sarihto, ni hatlai sarihto naah, palong to Ararat mae nuiah angtang.
And on the seventeenth day of the seventh month the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.
5 Khrah ha karoek to tui to amsah tathuk, khrah hato haih hmaloe koek niah loe kasang maenawk to amtueng boeh.
And still the waters went on falling, till on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains were seen.
6 Ni qui palito pacoengah, Noah mah a sak ih palong thokbuem to paongh;
Then, after forty days, through the open window of the ark which he had made,
7 pangaah maeto a prawt, pangaah loe long nuiah tui kang ai karoek to, ahnuk ahma azawk.
Noah sent out a raven, which went this way and that till the waters were gone from the earth.
8 To pacoengah long nuiah tui kaang boeh maw tiah panoek hanah, pahuu maeto a prawt let;
And he sent out a dove, to see if the waters had gone from the face of the earth;
9 toe long to tui mah khuk boih vop pongah, acukhaih ahmuen to hnu ai; to pongah a ohhaih palong ah amlaem let; to pacoengah Noah mah ban to payangh moe, pahuu to angmah khaeah palong thungah lak.
But the dove saw no resting-place for her foot, and came back to the ark, for the waters were still over all the earth; and he put out his hand, and took her into the ark.
10 Ni sarihto zing pacoengah, pahuu to palong thung hoiah a prawt let.
And after waiting another seven days, he sent the dove out again;
11 Duembang ah loe pahuu to angmah khaeah amlaem let, khenah, pahuu loe tahmawh ah olive thingqam to koeng; to naah long nuiah tui to kaang tathuk boeh, tiah Noah mah panoek.
And the dove came back at evening, and in her mouth was an olive-leaf broken off: so Noah was certain that the waters had gone down on the earth.
12 Ni sarihto zing pacoengah, pahuu to a prawt let; to pacoengah loe pahuu to angmah khaeah amlaem let ai boeh.
And after seven days more, he sent the dove out again, but she did not come back to him.
13 Saning cumvai taruk, maeto, khrahto haih, ni tangsuek naah long nui ih tui to kaang tathuk; Noah mah palong imphu to khok moe, a khet naah, long nuiah tui to kaang boeh, tiah a hnuk.
And in the six hundred and first year, on the first day of the first month, the waters were dry on the earth: and Noah took the cover off the ark and saw that the face of the earth was dry.
14 Khrah hnetto haih, ni pumphaeto pacoeng, sarihto naah, long nuiah tui to kaang boih boeh.
And on the twenty-seventh day of the second month the earth was dry.
15 To naah Sithaw mah Noah khaeah,
And God said to Noah,
16 Nangmah hoi na zu, na capanawk hoi na capanawk ih zunawk, palong thung hoiah tacawt o laih.
Go out of the ark, you and your wife and your sons and your sons' wives.
17 Nang hoi nawnto kaom hinghaih tawn hmuennawk, moinawk boih, tavaanawk, pacah ih moinawk hoi long ah kavak hmuennawk boih tacawt haih ah; long ah caa kapop ah sah o nasoe, thingthai athai o nasoe loe, long nuiah pung o nasoe, tiah a naa.
Take out with you every living thing which is with you, birds and cattle and everything which goes on the earth, so that they may have offspring and be fertile and be increased on the earth.
18 To pongah Noah loe a caanawk, a zu hoi a caanawk ih zunawk hoi nawnto tacawt o.
And Noah went out with his sons and his wife and his sons' wives;
19 Moi kasannawk boih, long ah kavak hmuennawk boih, tavaanawk boih, atii kanghmong long ah kavak moinawk boih, palong thung hoiah tacawt o.
And every beast and bird and every living thing of every sort which goes on the earth, went out of the ark.
20 Noah mah Angraeng hanah hmaicam to sak; kaciim moi, kaciim tavaa to a lak pacoengah, hmai hoi angbawnhaih to a sak.
And Noah made an altar to the Lord, and from every clean beast and bird he made burned offerings on the altar.
21 To tiah hmai angbawnhaih to Angraeng mah hmuihoih ah thaih pae naah, Angraeng mah palung thung hoiah, Kami mah nawkta nathuem hoiah poekhaih kasae tawn cadoeh, kami hanah long hae ka tangoeng let mak ai boeh; ka sak ih hmuen baktih toengah, kahing hmuennawk to natuek naah doeh kam rosak mak ai boeh.
And when the sweet smell came up to the Lord, he said in his heart, I will not again put a curse on the earth because of man, for the thoughts of man's heart are evil from his earliest days; never again will I send destruction on all living things as I have done.
22 Long oh nathung, antii haehhaih tue, thingthai qumpo lakhaih tue, kangqai tue, kabae tue, nipui tue hoi sik tue, khodai hoi khoving to natuek naah doeh boeng mak ai boeh, tiah thuih.
While the earth goes on, seed time and the getting in of the grain, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, will not come to an end.
A Dove is Sent Forth from the Ark
