Suencuek 8
1 Tedae Pathen loh Noah khaw, mulhing boeih khaw, amah neh lawng khuikah aka om hmaih rhamsa boeih khawa ngaidam. Te dongah Pathen loh diklai ah khohlia tueih tih tui khaw hnop uh.
God remembered Noah, all the animals, and all the livestock that were with him in the ship; and God made a wind to pass over the earth. The waters subsided.
2 Te phoeiah tuisih laedil neh vaan bangbueta biing tih vaan lamkah khonal tea paa sak.
The deep’s fountains and the sky’s windows were also stopped, and the rain from the sky was restrained.
3 Diklai hman kah tui te khaw rhaeng. Tui te tla tih, rhaeng tih, khohnin ya sawmngaa boeih vaengah kak.
The waters continually receded from the earth. After the end of one hundred and fifty days the waters receded.
4 Te phoeikaha hla rhih hla hnin hlai rhih vaengah lawng te Ararat tlang ah duem.
The ship rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on Ararat’s mountains.
5 Tui aka omrhoek te khaw hla rha khuiah voehvoeh kak tiha hla rha vaengkah lamhmacuek khohnin ah tlang somrhoek te tueng.
The waters receded continually until the tenth month. In the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were visible.
6 Te phoeiah omtih hnin likipa boeih vaengah Noah loh lawng kah bangbueta saii tea ong.
At the end of forty days, Noah opened the window of the ship which he had made,
7 Te phoeiah vangak tea tueih hatah diklai ah tuia haang due dong, cet tih voei bal.
and he sent out a raven. It went back and forth, until the waters were dried up from the earth.
8 Te phoeiah diklai hman kah tui kak te aka so ham amah taengkah vahui tea tueih.
He himself sent out a dove to see if the waters were abated from the surface of the ground,
9 Tedae diklai hman boeih te tuiloh a khuk dongah vahui kho kah a khopha ham ngolbuel hmu pawt tih Noah taengah lawng khuila bal. Te vaengah a kuta yueng pah tih vahu te a loh phoeiah lawng khuilaa khuen.
but the dove found no place to rest her foot, and she returned into the ship to him, for the waters were on the surface of the whole earth. He put out his hand, and took her, and brought her to him into the ship.
10 Te phoeiah hnin rhih koepa rhing tih lawngkhui lamkah vahui te koepa tueih.
He waited yet another seven days; and again he sent the dove out of the ship.
11 Hlaem vaengah vahui te amah taengla ham paan hatah a hmui dongah olive hnah thingsuep pueng ne. Te dongah diklai kah tui kak coeng tila Noahloh a ming.
The dove came back to him at evening and, behold, in her mouth was a freshly plucked olive leaf. So Noah knew that the waters were abated from the earth.
12 Te phoeiah hnin rhiha rhing bal tih vahui tea tueih dae anih taengla koep bal voel pawh.
He waited yet another seven days, and sent out the dove; and she didn’t return to him any more.
13 Kum ya rhuk neh kum khat, hla lamhmacuek, lamhmacuek khohnin ah diklai hmankah tui te kak. Te dongah Noah loh lawng kah imphu tea khoe tiha sawt vaengah diklai hmante phueihuetlaa hmuh.
In the six hundred and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from the earth. Noah removed the covering of the ship, and looked. He saw that the surface of the ground was dry.
14 Te dongaha hla bae hnin kul neh hnin rhih nen tah diklai phuei coeng.
In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.
15 Te phoeiah Pathen loh Noah tea voek tih,
God spoke to Noah, saying,
16 “Namah khaw, na yuu khaw, na carhoek khaw, namah taengkah na langa rhoek khaw, lawngkhui lamkah halo laeh.
“Go out of the ship, you, your wife, your sons, and your sons’ wives with you.
17 Pumsa boeih khuiah namah taengkah aka om mulhing boeih neh vaa boeih khaw, rhamsa neh diklai ah rhuicai aka yuel boeih khaw diklai ah luem tiha pungtai vaengah diklai ah ping sak ham namah taengah khuen rhoe khuen,” a ti nah.
Bring out with you every living thing that is with you of all flesh, including birds, livestock, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply on the earth.”
18 Te dongah Noah neh a carhoek khaw, a yuu neh a langa rhoek khaw, hmaih halo uh.
Noah went out, with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives with him.
19 mulhing boeih neh rhulcai boeih khaw, vaa boeih neh diklai ah aka colh boeih lawng dong lamloh amah huiko neh pawk uh.
Every animal, every creeping thing, and every bird, whatever moves on the earth, after their families, went out of the ship.
20 Te phoeiah Noah loh BOEIPA taengah hmueihtuka suem. Rhamsa boeih khuikah aka caih neh vaa boeih khuikah aka caih tea loh tih hmueihtuk dongah hmueihhlutnahlaa nawn.
Noah built an altar to the LORD, and took of every clean animal, and of every clean bird, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
21 BOEIPAloh a hmuehmuei tea huep vaengaha botui. Te dongah BOEIPA loh a lungbuei ah, “Hlang kah lungbuei benbonah he a camoe lamkah thae cakhaw hlang kong ah diklai te thaephoei thil ham ka khoep voel mahpawh. Te dongah mulhing boeih ka saii vanbangla ngawn ham ka khoep voel mahpawh.
The LORD smelled the pleasant aroma. The LORD said in his heart, “I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake because the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth. I will never again strike every living thing, as I have done.
22 Diklaia tue boeihaom khuiah cangti tue neh cangah tue khaw, khosik neh khobae khaw, khohal neh sikca khaw, khoyin neh khothaih khaw paa uh mahpawh,” a ti.
While the earth remains, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night will not cease.”
