1 Mosebog 7
1 Derpaa sagde HERREN til Noa: »Gaa ind i Arken med hele dit Hus, thi dig har jeg fundet retfærdig for mine Øjne i denne Slægt.
And Yahweh said to Noah, Enter thou and all thy house, into the ark, —for, thee, have I seen righteous before me, in this generation.
2 Af alle rene Dyr skal du tage syv Par, Han og Hun, og af alle urene Dyr eet Par, Han og Hun,
Of all the clean beasts, shalt thou take to thee by sevens, a male and his female, —and, of the beasts that are not clean, shall be two a male and his female.
3 ligeledes af Himmelens Fugle syv Par, Han og Hun, for at de kan forplante sig paa hele Jorden.
Also of the bird of the heavens, by sevens, male and female, —to keep alive a seed on the face of all the earth.
4 Thi om syv Dage vil jeg lade det regne paa Jorden i fyrretyve Dage og fyrretyve Nætter og udslette alle Væsener, som jeg har gjort, fra Jordens Flade.«
For in seven days more, I, am sending rain on the earth, forty days and forty nights, —so will I wipe out all the living things which I have made, from off the face of the ground.
5 Og Noa gjorde ganske som HERREN havde paalagt ham.
And Noah did, —according to all that Yahweh commanded him.
6 Noa var 600 Aar gammel, da Vandfloden kom over Jorden.
Now, Noah, was six hundred years old, —when, the flood, came, even waters on the earth.
7 Noa gik med sine Sønner, sin Hustru og sine Sønnekoner ind i Arken for at undslippe Flodens Vande.
So Noah entered, and his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives with him into the ark, —from before the waters of the flood,
8 De rene og de urene Dyr, Fuglene og alt, hvad der kryber paa Jorden,
Of the beasts that were clean, and of the beasts that were not clean, —and of the birds, and everything that creepeth on the ground,
9 gik Par for Par ind i Arken til Noa, Han og Hundyr, som Gud havde paalagt Noa.
two and two, went they in unto Noah, into the ark male and female, —as God commanded Noah.
10 Da nu syv Dage var omme, kom Flodens Vande over Jorden;
And it came to pass, in the seven days, —that the waters of the flood, came on the earth.
11 i Noas 600de Leveaar paa den syttende Dag i den anden Maaned, den Dag brast det store Verdensdybs Kilder, og Himmelens Sluser aabnedes,
In the six hundredth year, the year of the life of Noah. in the second month on the seventeenth day of the month on this day, were burst open all the fountains of the great roaring deep, and the windows of the heavens, were set open.
12 og Regnen faldt over Jorden i fyrretyve Dage og fyrretyve Nætter.
(And it came to pass that the heavy rain was on the earth, —forty days and forty nights.)
13 Selv samme Dag gik Noa ind i Arken og med ham hans Sønner Sem, Kam og Jafet, hans Hustru og hans tre Sønnekoner
On this selfsame day, entered Noah, and Shem and Ham and Japheth. Noah’s sons, —and Noah’s wife, and his sons’ three wives with them into the ark:
14 og desuden alle vildtlevende Dyr efter deres Arter, alt Kvæg efter dets Arter, alt Kryb paa Jorden efter dets Arter og alle Fugle efter deres Arter, alle Fugle, alt, hvad der har Vinger;
they, and all the wild-beasts after their kind and all the tame-beasts after their kind, and all the creeping things that creep on the earth after their kind, —and all the birds after their kind, every bird of every wing.
15 af alt Kød, som har Livsaande, gik Par for Par ind i Arken til Noa;
So they entered in unto Noah, into the ark, —two and two of all flesh, wherein was the spirit of life.
16 Han og Hundyr af alt Kød gik ind, som Gud havde paabudt, og HERREN lukkede efter ham.
And, they that entered, male and female of all flesh, entered, as God commanded him, —and Yahweh shut him in round about.
17 Da kom Vandfloden over Jorden i fyrretyve Dage, og Vandet steg og løftede Arken, saa den hævedes over Jorden.
And it came to pass, that the flood was forty days on the earth, —and the waters increased and bare up the ark, and it was lifted high above the earth,
18 Og Vandet steg og stod højt over Jorden, og Arken flød paa Vandet;
And the waters prevailed and increased greatly, on the earth, —and the ark went its way on the face of the waters.
19 og Vandet steg og steg over Jorden, saa de højeste Bjerge under Himmelen stod under Vand;
Yea the waters, prevailed very greatly, on the earth, —so that all the high mountains became covered, that were under all the heavens:
20 femten Alen stod Vandet over dem, saa Bjergene stod helt under Vand.
fifteen cubits upwards, prevailed the waters, so that the mountains became covered.
21 Da omkom alt Kød, som rørte sig paa Jorden, Fugle, Kvæg, vildtlevende Dyr og alt Kryb paa Jorden og alle Mennesker;
And all flesh ceased to breathe that moved on the earth, of birds and of tame-beasts and of wild-beasts, and of all the swarming things that swarm on the earth, —and all mankind.
22 alt, i hvis Næse det var Livets Aande, alt, hvad der var paa det faste Land, døde.
All in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life of all that were on the dry ground died.
23 Saaledes udslettedes alle Væsener, der var paa Jordens Flade, Mennesker, Kvæg, Kryb og Himmelens Fugle; de udslettedes af Jorden, og tilbage blev kun Noa og de, der var hos ham i Arken.
Thus was wiped out all that existed on the face of the ground, from man unto beast unto creeping thing, and unto the bird of the heavens, thus were they wiped out from the earth, —so that there was left—only Noah and they that were with him in the ark.
24 Vandet steg over Jorden i 150 Dage.
Thus prevailed the waters on the earth, —a hundred and fifty days.
The Great Flood
