Genesis 7
1 And Jehovah said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Noa sɛ, “Wo ne wo fiefoɔ nyinaa nkɔ Adaka no mu, ɛfiri sɛ, asase so nnipa nyinaa no, wo na mahunu sɛ woyɛ ɔteneneeni.
2 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:
Fa mmoa a wɔn ho te biara, anini nson ne abereɛ nson ka wo ho. Na fa mmoa biara a wɔn ho nte nso mmienu, onini ne ɔbereɛ.
3 of the birds also of the heavens, seven and seven, male and female, to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.
Na fa nnomaa biara anini nson ne abereɛ, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, nsuyire no akyiri no, wɔn ase bɛfɛe.
4 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.
Nnanson sɛ ɛnnɛ pɛpɛɛpɛ, mɛma osuo atɔ asase so awia ne anadwo adaduanan. Mɛpepa abɔdeɛ biara a nkwa wɔ mu a mabɔ afiri asase so.”
5 And Noah did according unto all that Jehovah commanded him.
Noa dii nsɛm a Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no no nyinaa so.
6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
Ɛberɛ a nsuyire baa asase so no, na Noa adi mfeɛ aha nsia.
7 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.
Noa ne ne mmammarima ne ne yere ne ne nsenom mmaa kɔhyɛɛ adaka no mu sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, nsuyire no renka wɔn.
8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of birds, and of everything that creepeth upon the ground,
Mmoa a wɔn ho te ne wɔn a wɔn ho nte, nnomaa ne mmoa a wɔwea fam,
9 there went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, male and female, as God commanded Noah.
mmienu mmienu a wɔyɛ anini ne abereɛ kɔkaa Noa ho wɔ adaka no mu, sɛdeɛ Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Noa sɛ ɔnyɛ no.
10 And it came to pass after the seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
Na nnanson no akyiri no, nsuyire no hyɛɛ aseɛ.
11 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.
Noa dii mfeɛ ahansia no mu no, bosome a ɛtɔ so mmienu no ɛda a ɛtɔ so dunson no, nsutire a ɛwɔ asase mu no nyinaa bobɔeɛ, na ɛsoro mpomma nso buebueeɛ.
12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
Osuo tɔɔ asase so awia ne anadwo adaduanan.
13 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;
Saa ɛda no ara, Noa ne ne mmammarima Sem, Ham ne Yafet ne ne yere ne ne mmammarima baasa no yerenom kɔhyɛɛ adaka no mu.
14 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 bird after its kind, every bird of every sort.
Na wiram mmoa ahodoɔ ne nyɛmmoa ahodoɔ ne aboa biara a ɔnam asase so ne anomaa biara ne abɔdeɛ biara a ɛwɔ ntaban ka wɔn ho wɔ Adaka no mu.
15 And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh wherein is the breath of life.
Abɔdeɛ biara a nkwa wɔ wɔn mu mmienu mmienu baa Noa nkyɛn bɛwuraa Adaka no mu.
16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God commanded him: and Jehovah shut him in.
Mmoa a wɔwuraa mu no nyinaa, na wɔyɛ anini ne abereɛ, sɛdeɛ Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Noa no. Afei, Awurade kaa Noa hyɛɛ adaka no mu, too no mu.
17 And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lifted up above the earth.
Nsuyire no toaa so adaduanan asase so. Ɛmaa Adaka no so ma ɛtɛɛ nsuo no ani.
18 And the waters prevailed, and increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters.
Nsuo no kɔɔ so yirii tɛnn wɔ asase so, ma Adaka no tɛɛ nsuo no ani.
19 And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high mountains that were under the whole heaven were covered.
Nsuo no yirii tɛntɛntɛn wɔ asase so ara kɔsii sɛ, ɛkataa mmepɔ atentene akɛseɛ a ɛwɔ asase so nyinaa so.
20 Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered.
Nsuo no yirii ara kɔsii sɛ ɛkataa mmepɔ no so boroo so anammɔn aduonu.
21 And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both birds, and cattle, and beasts, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man:
Abɔdeɛ biara a nkwa wɔ mu a ɛnam asase so te sɛ nnomaa, wiram mmoa a wɔwea asase so ne adasamma ase hyeeɛ.
22 all in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, of all that was on the dry land, died.
Biribiara a ɛte asase kesee so nso ase hyeeɛ.
23 And every living thing was destroyed that was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and creeping things, and birds of the heavens; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only was left, and they that were with him in the ark.
Wɔpepaa biribiara a nkwa wɔ mu a ɛte asase so no. Nnipa ne mmoa ne abɔdeɛ a wɔnam asase so ne ewiem nnomaa nyinaa nso, wɔpepaa wɔn firii asase so. Ɛkaa Noa ne wɔn a na wɔka ne ho wɔ adaka no mu nko ara.
24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth a hundred and fifty days.
Nsuyire no toaa so asase so nnafua ɔha aduonum.
