Genesis 7
1 Then the LORD said to Noah, “Go into the ark, you and all your family, because I have found you righteous in this generation.
Seyè a di Noe: Antre nan gwo batiman an, ou menm ansanm ak tout fanmi ou, paske, nan tout moun k'ap viv koulye la a, se ou menm sèl mwen wè k'ap mache dwat devan mwen.
2 You are to take with you seven pairs of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate; a pair of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate;
Nan tout bèt ki bon pou moun manje, w'a pran sèt mal ak sèt fenmèl nan chak kalite. Nan tout bèt ki pa bon pou moun manje, w'a pran yon mal ak yon fenmèl nan chak kalite.
3 and seven pairs of every kind of bird of the air, male and female, to preserve their offspring on the face of all the earth.
Konsa tou, pou zwazo k'ap vole nan syèl la, w'a pran sèt mal ak sèt fenmèl nan chak kalite, pou ras la pa disparèt sou latè.
4 For seven days from now I will send rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights, and I will wipe from the face of the earth every living thing I have made.”
Paske, nan sèt jou ankò, m'ap fè yon sèl lapli tonbe sou latè pandan karant jou karant nwit. M'ap disparèt tout moun ak tout bèt mwen te fè mete sou latè.
5 And Noah did all that the LORD had commanded him.
Noe fè tout sa Seyè a te ba li lòd fè a.
6 Now Noah was 600 years old when the floodwaters came upon the earth.
Noe te gen sisanzan (600 an) lè inondasyon an te fèt sou latè.
7 And Noah and his wife, with his sons and their wives, entered the ark to escape the waters of the flood.
Li antre nan batiman an, li menm, pitit gason li yo, madanm li ansanm ak madanm pitit li yo pou yo te ka chape anba inondasyon an.
8 The clean and unclean animals, the birds, and everything that crawls along the ground
tout kalite bèt, kit sa ki bon pou moun manje, kit sa ki pa bon pou moun manje, tout zwazo, tout bèt ki trennen sou vant,
9 came to Noah to enter the ark, two by two, male and female, as God had commanded Noah.
yo tout yo vin jwenn Noe nan batiman an, de pa de, mal ak fenmèl, jan Bondye te bay Noe lòd la.
10 And after seven days the floodwaters came upon the earth.
Sou sèt jou vre, dlo kouvri tout latè.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, on the seventeenth day of the second month, all the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened.
Jou ki fè Noe sisanzan (600 an), yon mwa, disèt jou, tout sous nan fon lanmè a pete. Syèl la menm louvri, li konmanse vide dlo sou tè a.
12 And the rain fell upon the earth for forty days and forty nights.
Lapli tonbe san rete pandan karant jou karant nwit.
13 On that very day Noah entered the ark, along with his sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and his wife, and the three wives of his sons—
Menm jou sa a, Noe, madanm li, pitit gason l' yo, Sèm, Kam ak Jafè, ansanm ak madanm yo antre nan batiman an,
14 they and every kind of wild animal, livestock, crawling creature, bird, and winged creature.
ansanm ak tout kalite bèt domestik, tout kalite bèt ki trennen sou vant ak tout kalite zwazo, tout kalite ti zwazo, tout kalite bèt ki gen zèl.
15 They came to Noah to enter the ark, two by two of every creature with the breath of life.
Yo tout yo te vin jwenn Noe nan batiman an, de grenn nan chak kalite bèt vivan ki sou latè.
16 And they entered, the male and female of every living thing, as God had commanded Noah. Then the LORD shut him in.
Se konsa, yon mal ak yon fenmèl nan chak kalite bèt vivan antre nan batiman an, jan Bondye te bay lòd la. Epi Bondye fèmen pòt la dèyè Noe.
17 For forty days the flood kept coming on the earth, and the waters rose and lifted the ark high above the earth.
Pandan karant jou, dlo kouvri tout tè a. Dlo yo gonfle, yo fè batiman an pèdi tè.
18 So the waters continued to surge and rise greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the waters.
Dlo yo ranfòse, yo gonfle pi rèd sou tè a jouk batiman an t'ap flote nèt sou dlo a.
19 Finally, the waters completely inundated the earth, so that all the high mountains under all the heavens were covered.
Dlo a moute pi rèd toujou anwo tè a, li kouvri tèt tout gwo mòn ki anba syèl la.
20 The waters rose and covered the mountaintops to a depth of fifteen cubits.
Dlo a moute vennsenk pye depase tèt mòn yo.
21 And every living thing that moved upon the earth perished—birds, livestock, animals, every creature that swarms upon the earth, and all mankind.
Lè sa a, tout bèt sou latè mouri: zwazo, bèt domestik, zannimo, tout bèt ki trennen sou vant yo, ansanm ak tout moun.
22 Of all that was on dry land, everything that had the breath of life in its nostrils died.
tout bèt vivan ak tout moun sou latè mouri.
23 And every living thing on the face of the earth was destroyed—man and livestock, crawling creatures and birds of the air; they were blotted out from the earth, and only Noah and those with him in the ark remained.
Se konsa, Seyè a detwi tout bèt, tout sa ki te sou latè, depi ou tande se moun jouk zannimo domestik, bèt ki trennen sou vant ak zwazo k'ap vole nan syèl la. Yo tout yo disparèt sou latè. Sèl moun ki te rete se te Noe avèk lòt moun ki te nan batiman an ansanm ak li yo.
24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth for 150 days.
Apre sa, dlo a rete anwo tè a pandan sansenkant (150) jou.
The Great Flood
