Chakruok 8
1 To Nyasaye noparo Nowa gi le mag bungu kod jamni mane ni kode ei yie, kendo notugo yamo mokudho e piny mi pi nochako dwono.
God remembered Noah [Rest], 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 Koro sokni manie bwo lowo kod dirise mag ataro moa e polo nolor, kendo koth moa e polo nochok.
The deep’s fountains and the sky’s windows were also stopped, and the rain from the sky was restrained.
3 Pi noduono e piny mos mos. Bangʼ ndalo mia achiel gi piero abich pi noduono,
The waters continually receded from the earth. After the end of one hundred fifty days the waters decreased.
4 kendo odiechiengʼ mar apar gabiriyo mar dwe mar abiriyo yie nobiro mochungʼ ewi gode mag Ararat.
The ship rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on Ararat’s mountains.
5 Pi nomedo dwono nyaka dwe mar apar, to chiengʼ mokwongo mar dwe mar aparno wi gode nochako neno.
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 Bangʼ ndalo piero angʼwen Nowa noyawo dirisa mane oloso ei yie,
At the end of forty days, Noah [Rest] opened the window of the ship which he had made,
7 kendo nooro agak kendo nosiko kohuyo koni gi koni nyaka pi notwo e piny.
and he sent out a raven. It went back and forth, until the waters were dried up from the earth.
8 Eka nooro akuru mondo ofweny ka pi osedok chien e piny.
He himself sent out a dove to see if the waters were abated from the surface of the ground,
9 To akuru ne ok nyal yudo kama opiyoe nikech pi ne pod okwako piny duto; omiyo noduogo ir Nowa ei yie. Nowa notero lwete oko kendo ogame mine odwoge ire ei yie.
but the dove found no place to rest her foot, and she returned to him into the ship, 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 Norito bangʼ ndalo abiriyo moko kendo nooro akuru koa ei yie.
He waited yet another seven days; and again he sent the dove out of the ship.
11 Kane akuru odwogo ire godhiambo, notingʼo it yiend zeituni mangʼich mopon e dhoge. Mano nomiyo Nowa ongʼeyo ni koro pi oseduono e piny.
The dove came back to him at evening and, behold, in her mouth was a freshly plucked olive leaf. So Noah [Rest] knew that the waters were abated from the earth.
12 Norito ndalo abiriyo moko kendo nochako ooro akuruno, to ne ok odwogo ire kendo.
He waited yet another seven days, and sent out the dove; and she didn’t return to him any more.
13 Chiengʼ mokwongo mar dwe mokwongo ka Nowa ne ja-higni mia auchiel gachiel, pi noduono e piny. Eka Nowa noelo wi yie kendo noneno ni piny osetwo.
In the six hundred first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from the earth. Noah [Rest] removed the covering of the ship, and looked. He saw that the surface of the ground was dried.
14 Kane ochopo tarik piero ariyo gabiriyo ema ne piny otuoe.
In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.
15 Eka Nyasaye nowacho ne Nowa niya,
God spoke to Noah [Rest], saying,
16 “Wuog oko ei yie, in kaachiel gi chiegi, kod yawuoti kod mond yawuoti.
“Go out of the ship, you, and your wife, and your sons, and your sons’ wives with you.
17 Gol oko kit gik mangima duto man kodi kaka winy, le kod gik moko duto mamol e lowo mondo ginywolre e piny kendo ginyaa kendo kwan-gi omedre e piny.”
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 Omiyo Nowa nowuok oko, kaachiel gi yawuote kod chiege kod mond yawuote.
Noah [Rest] went out, with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives with him.
19 Le duto kod gik moko duto mamol e lowo kod winy duto; gimoro amora mawuotho e piny, nowuok ei yie moro ka moro kaka kitgi obet.
Every animal, every creeping thing, and every bird, whatever moves on the earth, after their families, went out of the ship.
20 Eka Nowa nogero kendo mar misango ne Jehova Nyasaye kendo nokawo le maler kod winy maler moko michamo, motimogo misango miwangʼo pep ewi kendono.
Noah [Rest] built an altar to Adonai, and took of every clean animal, and of every clean bird, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
21 Jehova Nyasaye nowinjo suya madungʼ tik mangʼwe ngʼar kendo nowacho e chunye niya, “Ok anachak akwongʼ piny kendo nikech dhano, kata obedo ni paro ma aye chunye opongʼ gi richo nyaka aa e tin-ne. Bende ok anachak atiek gik mangima kendo kaka asetimoni.
Adonai smelled the pleasant aroma. Adonai 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 “Chwoyo gi keyo, ngʼich kod liet, oro kod chwiri, odiechiengʼ kod otieno ok nobed maonge nyaka giko piny.”
While the earth remains, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night will not cease.”
