1 Mojžišova 8
1 Rozpomenul se pak Bůh na Noé, i všecky živočichy a všecka hovada, kteráž byla s ním v korábu; pročež uvedl Bůh vítr na zemi, i zastavily se vody.
And God remembered Noe, and all the wild beasts, and all the cattle, and all the birds, and all the reptiles that creep, as many as were with him in the ark, and God brought a wind upon the earth, and the water stayed.
2 A zavříny jsou studnice propasti i průduchové nebeští, a zastaven jest příval s nebe.
And the fountains of the deep were closed up, and the flood-gates of heaven, and the rain from heaven was withheld.
3 I navrátily se vody se svrchku země, odcházejíce zase, a opadly vody po stu a padesáti dnech,
And the water subsided, and went off the earth, and after an hundred and fifty days the water was diminished, and the ark rested in the seventh month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat.
4 Tak že odpočinul koráb sedmého měsíce, v sedmnáctý den toho měsíce na horách Ararat.
And the water continued to decrease until the tenth month.
5 Když pak vody odcházely a opadaly až do desátého měsíce, prvního dne téhož desátého měsíce ukázali se vrchové hor.
And in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the heads of the mountains were seen.
6 I stalo se po čtyřidcíti dnech, otevřev Noé okno v korábu, kteréž byl udělal,
And it came to pass after forty days Noe opened the window of the ark which he had made.
7 Vypustil krkavce. Kterýžto vyletuje zase se vracoval, dokudž nevyschly vody na zemi.
And he sent forth a raven; and it went forth and returned not until the water was dried from off the earth.
8 Potom vypustil holubici od sebe, aby věděl, již-li by opadly vody se svrchku země.
And he sent a dove after it to see if the water had ceased from off the earth.
9 Kterážto když nenašla, kde by odpočinula noha její, navrátila se k němu do korábu; nebo vody byly po vší zemi. On pak vztáhna ruku svou, vzal ji, a vnesl k sobě do korábu.
And the dove not having found rest for her feet, returned to him into the ark, because the water was on all the face of the earth, and he stretched out his hand and took her, and brought her to himself into the ark.
10 A počekal ještě sedm dní jiných, a opět vypustil holubici z korábu.
And having waited yet seven other days, he again sent forth the dove from the ark.
11 I přiletěla k němu holubice k večerou, a aj, list olivový utržený v ústech jejích. Tedy poznal Noé, že opadly vody se svrchku země.
And the dove returned to him in the evening, and had a leaf of olive, a sprig in her mouth; and Noe knew that the water had ceased from off the earth.
12 I čekal ještě sedm dní jiných, a opět vypustil holubici, kterážto nevrátila se k němu více.
And having waited yet seven other days, he again sent forth the dove, and she did not return to him again any more.
13 I stalo se šestistého prvního léta, v první den měsíce prvního, že vyschly vody na zemi. I odjal Noé přikrytí korábu a uzřel, ano již oschl svrchek země.
And it came to pass in the six hundred and first year of the life of Noe, in the first month, on the first day of the month, the water subsided from off the earth, and Noe opened the covering of the ark which he had made, and he saw that the water had subsided from the face of the earth.
14 Druhého pak měsíce, v dvadcátý sedmý den téhož měsíce oschla země.
And in the second month the earth was dried, on the twenty-seventh day of the month.
15 I mluvil Bůh k Noé, řka:
And the Lord God spoke to Noe, saying,
16 Vyjdi z korábu, ty i žena tvá, a synové tvoji, i ženy synů tvých s tebou.
Come out from the ark, you and your wife and your sons, and your sons' wives with you.
17 Všecky živočichy, kteříž jsou s tebou ze všelikého těla, tak z ptactva jako z hovad a všelikého zeměplazu, kterýž se hýbe na zemi, vyveď s sebou; ať se v hojnosti rozplozují na zemi, a rostou a množí se na zemi.
And all the wild beasts as many as are with you, and all flesh both of birds and beasts, and every reptile moving upon the earth, bring forth with you: and increase you and multiply upon the earth.
18 I vyšel Noé a synové jeho, i žena jeho a ženy synů jeho s ním;
And Noe came forth, and his wife and his sons, and his sons' wives with him.
19 Každý živočich, každý zeměplaz a všecko ptactvo, všecko, což se hýbe na zemi, po pokoleních svých vyšlo z korábu.
And all the wild beasts and all the cattle and every bird, and every reptile creeping upon the earth after their kind, came forth out of the ark.
20 Tedy vzdělal Noé oltář Hospodinu, a vzav ze všech hovad čistých i ze všeho ptactva čistého, obětoval zápaly na tom oltáři.
And Noe built an altar to the Lord, and took of all clean beasts, and of all clean birds, and offered a whole burnt offering upon the altar.
21 I zachutnal Hospodin vůni tu příjemnou, a řekl Hospodin v srdci svém: Nebudu více zlořečiti zemi pro člověka, proto že myšlení srdce lidského zlé jest od mladosti jeho; aniž budu více bíti všeho, což živo jest, jako jsem učinil.
And the Lord God smelled a smell of sweetness, and the Lord God having considered, said, I will not any more curse the earth, because of the works of men, because the imagination of man is intently bent upon evil things from his youth, I will not therefore any more strike all living flesh as I have done.
22 Nýbrž dokavadž země trvati bude, setí a žeň, studeno i horko, léto a zima, den také a noc nepřestanou.
All the days of the earth, seed and harvest, cold and heat, summer and spring, shall not cease by day or night.
A Dove is Sent Forth from the Ark
