1 Mosebog 7
1 Og Herren sagde til Noa: Gak ind, du og dit ganske Hus, i Arken; thi dig har jeg set retfærdig for mig i denne Slægt.
And God said to Noah, "Come with all of your household into the ship, for I have seen your righteousness before me in this generation.
2 Tag dig af alle Haande rent Kvæg syv og syv, Han og Hun; men af det Kvæg, som er urent, et Par, Han og Hun;
You shall take seven pairs of every clean animal with you, the male and his female. Of the animals that are not clean, take two, the male and his female.
3 ogsaa af Fuglene under Himmelen, syv og syv, Han og Hun, at holde Sæd paa al Jorden i Live.
Also of the clean flying creatures of the sky, seven pairs, a male and a female, and of all the unclean flying creatures, one pair, a male and a female, to preserve their offspring on the surface of all the earth.
4 Thi end om syv Dage vil jeg lade regne paa Jorden fyrretyve Dage og fyrretyve Nætter og udslette af Jorden alle levende Væsener, som jeg har gjort.
In seven days, I will cause it to rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights. Every living thing that I have made, I will destroy from the surface of the ground."
5 Og Noa gjorde efter alt, hvad Herren bød ham.
Noah did everything that God commanded him.
6 Og der Noa var seks Hundrede Aar gammel, da kom Floden med Vande over Jorden.
Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters came on the earth.
7 Og Noa gik ind og hans Sønner og hans Hustru og hans Sønners Hustruer med ham i Arken for Flodens Vande.
Noah went into the ship with his sons, his wife, and his sons' wives, because of the waters of the flood.
8 Af rent Kvæg og af det Kvæg, som ikke er rent, og af Fuglene og alt det, som kryber paa Jorden,
Clean animals, animals that are not clean, flying creatures, and everything that crawls on the ground
9 gik Par og Par til Noa til Arken, Han og Hun, ligesom Gud havde befalet Noa.
went by pairs to Noah into the ship, male and female, as God commanded Noah.
10 Og det skete paa den syvende Dag, da kom Flodens Vande over Jorden.
It happened after the seven days, that the waters of the flood came on the earth.
11 I det Aar, der Noa var seks Hundrede Aar gammel, i den anden Maaned, paa den syttende Dag i Maaneden, paa den Dag opbrast alle Kilder i den store Afgrund, og Himmelens Sluser oplodes.
In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the same day all the fountains of the great deep were burst open, and the floodgates of the sky were opened.
12 Og der var Regn paa Jorden fyrretyve Dage og fyrretyve Nætter.
The rain was on the earth forty days and forty nights.
13 Paa den selvsamme Dag gik Noa og Sem og Kam og Jafet, Noas Sønner, og Noas Hustru og hans Sønners tre Hustruer med dem i Arken;
In the same day Noah, and Shem, Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, entered into the ship;
14 de og alle Haande vilde Dyr efter deres Slags og alle Haande Kvæg efter deres Slags og alle Haande Kryb, som krybe paa Jorden, efter deres Slags, og alle Haande Fugle efter deres Slags, alt det, som kan flyve, alt det, som har Vinger.
they, and every wild animal after its kind, and every tame animal after their kind, every creature that crawls on the earth after its kind, and every flying creature after its kind, everything with wings.
15 Og de gik i Arken til Noa, Par og Par af alt Kød, i hvilket der var Livs Aande.
They went to Noah into the ship, by pairs of all flesh with the breath of life in them.
16 Og de, som kom, kom Han og Hun af alle Haande Kød, ligesom Gud havde budet ham; og Herren lukkede til efter ham.
Those who went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God commanded him; and God shut him in.
17 Da kom Floden fyrretyve Dage over Jorden; og Vandet formeredes og opløftede Arken, og den hævedes op over Jorden.
The flood was forty days on the earth. The waters increased, and lifted up the ship, and it was lifted up above the earth.
18 Og Vandet fik Overhaand og formeredes saare over Jorden; og Arken flød oven paa Vandet.
The waters prevailed, and increased greatly on the earth; and the ship floated on the surface of the waters.
19 Og Vandet fik Overhaand saare meget over Jorden; og alle høje Bjerge bleve skjulte, som vare under den ganske Himmel.
And the waters rose very high on the earth. And all the high mountains that were under the whole sky were covered.
20 Femten Alen oventil fik Vandet Overhaand, og Bjergene bleve skjulte.
The waters rose and covered the highest mountains to a depth of more than twenty-six feet.
21 Saa udaandede alt Kød, som rørte sig paa Jorden, af Fugle og af Kvæg og af vilde Dyr og af al den Vrimmel, som vrimlede paa Jorden, og hvert Menneske.
And all flesh died that moved on the earth, flying creatures, and tame animals, and wild animals, and every creature that crawls on the earth, and all humankind.
22 Alt det, som havde Livs Aande i sin Næse, alt det, som var paa det tørre, døde.
All in whose nostrils breathed the breath of life, of all that was on the dry land, died.
23 Og hvert Væsen udslettedes, som var paa Jorden, fra Mennesket indtil Kvæg, indtil Kryb og indtil Fugle under Himmelen, og de bleve udslettede af Jorden; og Noa blev alene igen, og hvad der var med ham i Arken.
Every living thing was destroyed that was on the surface of the ground, including people, animals, crawling creatures, and flying creatures of the sky. They were destroyed from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those who were with him in the ship.
24 Og Vandet havde Overhaand over Jorden hundrede og halvtredsindstyve Dage.
The waters prevailed on the earth one hundred fifty days.
