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 the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous 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;
Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee seven and seven, the male and his female; and of the beasts that are not clean 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.
of the fowl also of the air, seven and seven, male and female: to keep seed alive upon the face 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.
For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living thing that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the ground.
5 Og Noa gjorde efter alt, hvad Herren bød ham.
And Noah did according unto all that the LORD commanded him.
6 Og der Noa var seks Hundrede Aar gammel, da kom Floden med Vande over Jorden.
And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
7 Og Noa gik ind og hans Sønner og hans Hustru og hans Sønners Hustruer med ham i Arken for Flodens Vande.
And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, 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,
Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the ground,
9 gik Par og Par til Noa til Arken, Han og Hun, ligesom Gud havde befalet Noa.
there went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, male and female, as God commanded Noah.
10 Og det skete paa den syvende Dag, da kom Flodens Vande over Jorden.
And it came to pass after the seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon 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 were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12 Og der var Regn paa Jorden fyrretyve Dage og fyrretyve Nætter.
And the rain was upon 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 selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah’s wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;
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 beast after its kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after its kind, and every fowl after its kind, every bird of every sort.
15 Og de gik i Arken til Noa, Par og Par af alt Kød, i hvilket der var Livs Aande.
And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh wherein is the breath of life.
16 Og de, som kom, kom Han og Hun af alle Haande Kød, ligesom Gud havde budet ham; og Herren lukkede til efter ham.
And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God commanded him: and the LORD shut him in.
17 Da kom Floden fyrretyve Dage over Jorden; og Vandet formeredes og opløftede Arken, og den hævedes op over Jorden.
And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lift up above the earth.
18 Og Vandet fik Overhaand og formeredes saare over Jorden; og Arken flød oven paa Vandet.
And the waters prevailed, and increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face 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 prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high mountains that were under the whole heaven were covered.
20 Femten Alen oventil fik Vandet Overhaand, og Bjergene bleve skjulte.
Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered.
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 upon the earth, both fowl, and cattle, and beast, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man:
22 Alt det, som havde Livs Aande i sin Næse, alt det, som var paa det tørre, døde.
all in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, of all that was in 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.
And every living thing was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and creeping thing, and fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only was left, and they that were with him in the ark.
24 Og Vandet havde Overhaand over Jorden hundrede og halvtredsindstyve Dage.
And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days.
